RIP Don Wilson (February 12, 1933-January 22, 2022), The Ventures´ rhythm guitar player. You will surely will be missed, as well as the members of the classic line up of The Ventures who have passed away. The Ventures is the best instrumental Rock group and my favourite too.
Nokie Edwards as multi talented as he is has got to be one of the greatest guitarists of all time, and Mel Taylor a timeless drummer as well. The Ventures are great musicians, although covering many songs, they are original having their distinct sound.
Mel Taylor was a huge influence in my playing the drums and still is today. (Yeah, I'm an old guy). His riffs and feel for playing and accentuating at the right time really enhanced the songs. These guys were great.
I have been a FAN of their music for 50 years!!! They are the BEST Instrumentalist that have been playing forever...love them...RIP Mel Taylor & Bob Boyle...Wayne
The Ventures stand at the top of the pile of great instrumental/surf bands.They did so many great tunes of their own as well as improved cover versions of others songs.
Mosrite neck was so perfect you only had to touch string for it to contact fret instead of pressing and made it so easy to play. Couldn't duplicate that feel on my Jazzmaster no matter how I adjusted it. Mosrites from that period go for about 10 times what they sold for if you can find one.Ventures got a lot of people playing guitar with their "how to play guitar" courses.I love how they just bang away on songs without all the facial expressions and jumping around like today.True professionals.
Along with their great music,they had some of the hottest women on their album covers, my mom really did not like the Golden Greats album pictures. When you open the album you get a bikini centerfold. The Ventures music and the album covers were a great help when I was youngster back in the 60's.
Back in time watching at this was mind blowing, thinking to play like that... but nowadays still awesome, I think that some day my grandchildren will see Necrophagist and think the same...
if anyone thinks this is simple, put the record on and try to play along. unlike metal where the guitar is distorted and covered up with effects, there is no where to hide playing clean. if you blank out for a second there is no feedback or sustain to cover for you.. you have to think 5 notes ahead... I have played guitar for 30 years, and am still amazed at how tight the ventures were. the whole band is spot on. The mix is tight. no one plays over each other. they had their shti together,
@lesvance01 My 1st amp was a Magnavox Console tube stereo through auxiliary plug. Then a big Silvertone and finally a transistor Vox Buckingham. The Vox would override once you pushed it and wound up plugging it into Silvertone and splitting into both speaker cabinets. I didn't know back then to bypass overrides. Memories, right?
Ah, the wonderful sound of a Mosrite Ventures' Model guitar. I have a 66' bass in three color sunburst. Great playing guitars. I have a video of me playing the Mosrite on my page.
old reverb tanks that fender used to make (still do in reissue) . You cannot get that sound without a tube reverb tank. The brown face 62 Showman helps too.
@FenrirLupus I agree. Sold the Jazzmaster about 12 years ago for almost twice what I paid for it simply because it was built before CBS bought out Fender.

OMG! I used to USE Score® - clear hair cream! I used it on my "Flat top with Fenders" haricut back in the early sixties. Anybody remember THAT style? LMOAO !

Without the Ventures there is no guitar driven rock & roll.
キャラバンは名曲中の名曲でしょう。途中で「恋ダンス」も出てきて楽しめますね。
初めて聴いたのが小学校5年生、電気が走り、いまだにモズライトエレキ弾いてます‼️🎶
凄い！
おじいちゃんは、
これをリアルタイムで観ていたんだね！
おじいちゃんがいつも車の中で
ベンチャーズ聴いてたから
忘れられなくなっちゃった。
3.08 Nokie is SHREDDING!!!. That guitar tone on Caravan is pure awesome
Outstanding performance. Love those guys. My inspiration to play guitar. R.I.P. Bob and Mel.

Now this is the classic Mosrite driven Ventures we know and love.
This is the INSTRUMENTAL "A" TEAM! Nokie and Don - Keep on rockin'
Bob and Mel - Rest in peace. You guys were THE BEST!
What a great gift to fans of instrumental rock and roll. Absolutely love these guys.
The Ventures stand at the top of the pile of great instrumental/surf bands.They did so many great tunes of their own as well as improved cover versions of others songs.
The dancers - incredible. So totally unpretentious. It's really refreshing!
演奏だけでこれだけ楽しいのはさすがです。ビートルズの前ですね。私の生まれた頃は白黒だった。いいね。京都の恋は最高ですよ。
日本で人気の2曲！本国アメリカでのTVショウで演奏するのは大変貴重。『キャラヴァン』のドラムソロの時、女性ダンサーが踊るのは日本には無い感覚で、新鮮だね👍
パール・ホワイトのモズライトもかっこいい！

so clean! dancable music... and no singing to bother my head with... pure music
Mel Taylor is one of the greatest drummerboys the world have seen!
can't stop listening to this! SO AWESOME =D
Gretsch1962
The Ventures rockin' "Caravan"! Awesome!
Coupling of Diamond Head & Caravan It is best.
(ダイアモンドヘッド＆キャラバンのカップリングは最高ですね。)
Legends!
Nothing more can be said.
Totally agree about the Mosrite - absolutely THE easiest-playing guitar ever made. Amazing really.
Thanks. ベンチャーズと言えば、エレキギターで、テケ、テケ、テケ、テー とやるやつでしたね。 一時、大変なブームになりました。
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂❤❤❤❤

Nokie Edwards makes it look so easy, wish I could play 1/2 as good as he could.
やっぱりこのメンバーでモズライトで白黒の映像ってとこがいいね
sin duda alguna el mejor grupo instrumental de la historia ...sus temas son clasicos de clasicos e influenciaron en muchos musicos
"Hey guys? What shall we do as a stage act?"
"I know, lets GRIN!"
"Yep... that should do it! "
;-)
Great stuff, a legendary band...
Sounds really nice. These both tunes.
Whoa, surf Caravan! Dig those Mosrite guitars!
懐かしくて涙が出そう😢
Back in time watching at this was mind blowing, thinking to play like that... but nowadays still awesome, I think that some day my grandchildren will see Necrophagist and think the same...
第一次聽就愛上了！😍😍😍
Love that Don`s bubbling sound

Love those slick finger scrapes on the guitar with the super wet reverb
Jesus, Mel!! Playing the drums-on-bass thing AND hittin the drums at the same time! Baruch Hashem for Mel Taylor!!
Excelente, son nuestros mentores. Sencillamente bestial.
God, I love the bass riff on Diamond Head...
nice, the actually live version
Tiếng là hét của khán giả nghe thật phấn khích ! Chơi vậy mới chơi , bội phục
You just gotta love a band that plays 3 Mosrites
おお〰〰❗この頃のノーキーのテクニックは素晴らしい❗❗❗
Best Song Ever
The best! the drummer reminds me of Gene Krupa's playing.
Nice to see Nokie with a natural smile...doesn't happen very often.
😮びっくり最高🎉
Great video - thanks for the upload!
ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAV,S
輕鬆輕柔的音色good
Sounds really good drivin around in a magic go-cart wearin a Sears poncho.
they really enjoy the very process of playing

ERAN BUENÍSIMOS....ESTE TEMA ES UN REFLEJO DE ELLO.
Super!!!
"Caravan" was written by Duke Ellington.
早く夏休みなって欲しいベンチャーズ最高
holy god these guys are awesome
ダイヤモンドヘッドのアレンジが良い！
Ah, the wonderful sound of a Mosrite Ventures' Model guitar. I have a 66' bass in three color sunburst. Great playing guitars. I have a video of me playing the Mosrite on my page.
Yes Don we love you too
Mel and Bob (RIP)
キャラバンたまらん
old reverb tanks that fender used to make (still do in reissue) . You cannot get that sound without a tube reverb tank. The brown face 62 Showman helps too.
caravan is amazing
Quel embrouilleur !!
Mel Taylor on drums. He was the greatest.
Playin' my Mosrite!! Actually it belonged to my deceased bro.....It plays great!!
@FenrirLupus I agree. Sold the Jazzmaster about 12 years ago for almost twice what I paid for it simply because it was built before CBS bought out Fender.
カッコいいですね✨
As a Russian guy correctly pointed out 3 years back, the lead guitarist resembles Major Yuri Gagarin of the Red Air Force.
That was me, man! I wrote: omg, Yuri Gagarin on lead guitar!
Nice. You have an eye for details, bro.
Dam they are good !!!!
Those are the famous Mosrite guitars.
@videogeekin thanks, didn't kno that. I remember when I was bout 11 or 12 everyone tryin' to learn "wipeout " on guitar and drums..
I like the Mosrites. They give the ventures a real twanggy sound.
All that and a tube of Score Hair cream. I used to use that stuff. It held like a champ...albeit a greasy champ.
あーやっぱり夏が来たー
esto es muy bueno!!
これを聴いて懐かしいと思う日本人とアメリカ人、どっちが多いと思う？
オレは日本人のほうが多いんじゃないかと思う。
♫ Happy b'Earthday Mel !
GODS OF GUITAR
Amo esta banda
Kochikame❤️❤️❤️
I had just turned 12 puberty and great time were soon to follow
The best!!
from this music they got that kochikame song
i,ve got the album live masters from japan,with a real live version of caravan ,and it sounds much better than this.
yawwwn dekhta hai kaya, youtsu a gaya :D
Exactly!

They used to be the Ventures, now they're the Dentures.

A band that launched a thousand band. No, I did not say that
M-I-T-I-C-I-
