Im 70 years young and l've been a rocker from my childhood years and I still love to listen to old time rock n roll. I also have a great love for guitar groups. Of course the Ventures my favourite. I have a selection of records of them.
This is the first song I learned to play on my drums in 1967 at the age of 13. I went on to fame and fortune playing in a rock band up and down the streets within walking distance. When I met my girlfriend in 1969, I knocked on her parents doors doing the drum solo with my knuckles. They thought I’d never amount to anything but I fooled them! I married their daughter and we’ve celebrated 51 years so far.

My era of music was the 70's and the 80's. I enjoy song reviews depending on who is doing the reviews. But, I can take that song and it to my play list. Sometimes my phone will make a list I have listened to frequently.Sometimes I just ask Google to find songs from a certain group. Keep on keeping on. I am 67 and I am reminded in the comment section how the record playing is natural raw talent and no auto tune. Good luck.
This is brilliant. Really takes me back to the 60s. I was a female drummer in a all male rock band. When we played 'Wipeout' the guys used to go off stage so I could play a solo. Thank you for sharing the and bringing back memories. This was excellent 👍👍👍
@ed stahl When the Surfaris made the original, they only had one drummer (Ron Wilson). The Ventures, doing this cover here, normally only have one drummer, but added a guest drummer on this number to spice things up a bit.
@@woodysthoughts4032 And as a drummer, I love how there are no ego trips on display here. The played really well together without trying to 'outplay' eachother. Thanks for the info too, take care. Norm in Yorkshire UK.
This song was quickly written in the recording studio to provide a B side to a 45 record. It took about 30 minutes to go from no idea for a song to what became a hit. It was written by The Surfaris, not The Ventures, but it was a hit in a short time. Everyone, including The Ventures, couldn't help but love it. The Surfaris were teenagers, still in high school when they got together and started playing. After some months, they wrote one song, Surfer Joe, and practiced playing it for a while before deciding they should record it. They got money to pay for the studio time from one of their mothers. It cost about $4000.00 in todays money, and she wasn't rich. After they got their one song on tape, the recording engineer told the boys he was ready to record their second song to put on the B side of the record. They said they didn't have one. He told them he could put Surfer Joe on both sides, or they could come up with another song right there. The drummer, Ron Wilson, started pounding the rhythm we all know, and the other guys came up with the guitar and bass parts in about 10 minutes. They ran through it a couple more times and had it recorded. The bass player, Pat Connolly, didn't own a bass at the time, and he'd only played guitar before that. He borrowed a bass just to use at the recording studio. He obviously picked it up very quickly. They didn't have a name for it, so they brainstormed for a bit, and were headed another direction when the father of one of the kids brought in a piece of thin plywood and broke it next to a microphone. They realized that sounded like a breaking surfboard, and their manager gave the crazy yell, and hollered, "WIPE OUT!" The engineer spliced the tape to put the breaking board sound, and the yell, at the beginning of the song.
I had heard that Merrill Fankhauser originally wrote the song and a google search said he recorded it in 1962, this was before the 1963 release of the Surfer Joe 45(?)
My Father is in the hospital on a ventilator... This is one of his favorite music videos! He loves how the drummers get into it! If any of you are religious of any type please say a prayer for my dad, we are not ready to say goodbye to him. He has a love for music with a record collection numbering in the thousands! Much love and peace to you all.
When this song first came out all the boys in school were trying to beat this rhythm out on desks, walls, trash cans or anything that made a drum like sound. It was great.
This was the ultimate instrumental in the day, and yea, every guy just had to pound on anything with two pencils as drum sticks. I was able to do it with my hands like a bongo.
He was one of the guitar greats of our times and had one of the fastest fingers in the business..thoroughly amazing...we will miss you very much..R.i.P Nokie
music04777 So sad, but also a reminder of the legacy of great music he and the other members of the ventures have left with us. Rest in peace, Nokie Edwards. Thanks so much for the music.
I was 9, found my Dad's Ventures record, played it and when Wipe Out played I went absolutely nuts. That was many decades ago. I just found this you tube video tonight and am thrilled that I was able to experience the energy again that I felt back then at my current age. Their energy and sense of harmonic connection is timeless.
I had similar experiences with music throughout my childhood. Of course, I be was listening to my dad's vinyl, in a "vacuum" devoid of outside influences. I didn't hear it on the radio, and mobody told me what to like. And yet, the songs and bands that captured me were also smash hits. Wipeout and Walk don't Run birth fascinated me. Another one for me was BOC "Don't Fear the Reaper". I only discovered that they were popular songs later. I think that says something about great music.
@@MartyTheAussie Here is The Safaris version; ruclips.net/video/p13yZAjhU0M/видео.html. Not bad but the Ventures cover is an improvement on the original.
@@bodhiapurva3887- "Wipe Out" was a memorable improvisation to fill Side B for "Surfer Joe" in 1963. The Surfaris were some kids trying to play like the surf star of the moment, Dick Dale and they should have full credit. The difference of THIS video is made by Max Weinberg's guest appearance making a drum-duet with Mel Taylor. I don't know if it was released as an album.
that's tge biggest problem with pop music nowadays. they don't have fun at all they are just making money thinking onoy about themselves (wich is why they are alome on the clips most of the thime and if they are not then the others are just bystanders)if the king of pop saw what pop has become he would suicide on the spot
coincidentally MJ died in 2009 which is about a year after pop got incredibly shit, was all downhill after that. "Doc, just give me all the sleeping meds, i dont want to hear that "ive got a feeling" song again, tonight is not a good night and it hasnt been since that song came out" its been downhill from there
Kind of a dual, and kind of a duet. I don't know what kind of difference it made, but they had differing styles, the one in traditional snare style, the other holding both sticks straight. In any event, an interesting contrast and killer song.
PS The drummer with the cool shirt hair and the glasses is Max Weinberg he used to drum for Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band and was the band leader and drummer on the Conan O'Brian Show in the beginning
I was a kid when this stuff came out. my parents listened to it. they also had some old Van Halen albums mixed in with the record collection. but they mostly listen to Johnny Cash and Neil Diamond.
I second that comment, and now there's no one telling you to turn it down, put it up to Eleven, Rock "n" Roll should be Loud!, this is one of my favourite tracks of all time, and I do personally like this cut by the Ventures best, but Kudos to the Surfaris for coming up with Wipeout in the first place, but as is so often the case when a really good band cover something, they make it their own, and this will always be associated with the Ventures
My father had a beautiful baritone voice and sang in a country western bandand when we were growing up we would go for long rides in our '47 Studebaker and my father would sing country western songs which we preferred to what the radio had to offer. Of course Ghost Riders was our favorite although there were many others. Wonderful memories ❤️.
Been playing drums for 40 or so years. I'll never forget this song. 1st song I ever learned. My dad, his friend on bass and me. I was 10 or 11. Great song!
My son bought my little grandson a set of really nice electronic drums, throne, headset, & of course some nice drumsticks for his 9th birthday last year & the for Christmas he got a great amplifier for them. He's doing really well on them. 😊

It was a great time to be alive. I have so many great memories of those days gone by. Life was nothing but fun from the time you woke up, till the time you went to bed.
+adityakumardsv Quite correct. Pop in the 50s and 60s had form, originality,skilled musicianship, beginnings, endings, harmony, and (often) melody. Today's pop has all but seven of those features.
+Nick Hobart Originality? Harmony? Melody? This song is almost entirely the same melody being looped. I fail to see how it's "superior" to music today.
+Omegis theunyielding You're right about the melody being looped, but that's the case for most songs then or now. What this one has, instead of a synthetic drum most usually found nowadays, is two very talented drummers riffing off each other and complementing rather than competing with each other. Can you think of any modern group that has that?
This tune was popular in Japan when I was stationed there from 1973-1974. It played more on the Japanese station than on the Armed Forces Radio System. Grew up with this song, was in Jr. High when it came out. Still love it today.
Despite their greatness and my deep appreciation for them the Shadows seem like some old mens band compared with the Ventures...(no disrespect intended whatsoever to anyone)
Oh come on!!Aman from a time when a man has 4 children ,was married when he was 20. Still great music lover of all!!from creadance Clearwater,ZZ top,Waylon and willie,. A nice man taken too early, too young but taken by a 2nd wife,needing to get rid of him in a old horrible facility!!! Love you always,dad!!!
I wanna go back to the days when you could hear all the 60s amazing music on the AM radio. And you could call the radio station and request your favorite.

The duel drumming by Max Weinberg (left), and Mel Taylor (right) take this song to a whole new level.
Agree, a great duo. It reminded me of Ringo Starr's induction to the hall of fame and he "dualed" with the stage band. Rock on.....
Max needs more drums
For sure. Max's son is the drummer for one of the most popular metal bands today.

Still do..Even all my life...

Played stereo or records too loud dad wood pull the fuses to our rooms and lock panel...I called family services
Crank it up Les !
at 74 I still get a thrill from them
Respect your neighbours keep it loud you know what they are missing with wipe out and need to be educated with great music on guitar and drums
Love it!

My parents enjoyed dancing to this music on News Year Eve parties.
I actually enjoyed listening and watching them play. They did a great job.
THIs takes me back, what a pair of fantastic drummers.brilliant
Awesome! Still one of my favorite tunes today. The drummers are great!
Wow...Max Weinberg of the Conan O'Brien show! The Ventures were cool!
Wipe Out (The Surfaris); drum cover by Sina
Wow I always loved that and the good looking drummers 😅😮🎉🎉
I went to high school with Max Weinberg...CHS...Maplewood, New Jersey...Class of '68
Великолепное исполнение!!! Браво!!! Great performance !!! Bravo!!!
Absolute classic, how many of us were brought to music by sounds such as this! Thanks for sharing this, unforgettable...
Even after listening 40 times, still get goosbumps. See them playing in Japan '65.
I love this. I want this exact version played at my wedding and my funeral.
I’m 62 and this is my kind of music. Oldies but Goodies...
I'm 28 and this is my kind of music
@@Einzatskommando yep todays mainstream music is trash
To me this is one of the best drum solos ever Awesome :-)
Imádom őket ahogy a dobosok felelgetnek egymásnak fantasztikus a tudásuk !
The guitar riff comes in so smooth blending on the end of the drum sets. This has to be the surfers anthem. No one has done it as well as this group.
10th 5th
WOW. Must go down as one of the best drumming records ever.
Actually far from. You can't compare those old people surfer show band rythm guys to real drummers.
@@orcaflotta7867 wut
Lol, no.
Orca Flotta Your actually stupid
@@CarlosGonzalez-ml8jl you're*. Maybe learn English before you call people stupid
I remember my dad playing this on his guitar, I miss him may he R.I.P.
I'm sorry Terry
❤❤❤ you all are still rocking the world 2023 _ 2024
It would be hard not to like this. It's pure fun music ! And it's great talent all the way. I love it !!!!!
RIP Nokie Edwards. You were one of the best guitarist ever.
i've been a Queen fan for 45 yrs, but the joy on their faces playing this is great, how could 3000 people not like this? it's fabulous
I love Queen too
Some people just haven't got any taste in music
@@lindaflatman6976 i guess not, its just such a happy film no matter who you like or not, they are clearly having fun!
Because they had no taste in music
@@Mihoyminoy124 were you old enough and lucky enough to see them? i was 🤯 👑✊🇬🇧
My 12 yo son plays this song (ebass) in his music school. Good songs must be played for always!
Their enthusiasm is contagious ! They really enjoy what they are doing.
Dueling drums,WOW. THEY are both great.
No one can top the Ventures when it comes to music and those drums. I could watch the drummers everyday
Hello Linda, How are you doing?
It was a great time to be alive. I have so many great memories of those days gone by. Life was nothing but fun from the time you woke up, till the time you went to bed.
The ENERGY of these guys is UNMATCHED today!
This music would wipe out today's music without sweat :)
+adityakumardsv Quite correct. Pop in the 50s and 60s had form, originality,skilled musicianship, beginnings, endings, harmony, and (often) melody. Today's pop has all but seven of those features.
+Nick Hobart Originality? Harmony? Melody? This song is almost entirely the same melody being looped. I fail to see how it's "superior" to music today.
+adityakumardsv Would?
+Omegis theunyielding You're right about the melody being looped, but that's the case for most songs then or now. What this one has, instead of a synthetic drum most usually found nowadays, is two very talented drummers riffing off each other and complementing rather than competing with each other. Can you think of any modern group that has that?
+atirasalsero WILL! :)
The great Ventures, they are one of the best guitar musicians in the world .
This tune was popular in Japan when I was stationed there from 1973-1974. It played more on the Japanese station than on the Armed Forces Radio System. Grew up with this song, was in Jr. High when it came out. Still love it today.
Despite their greatness and my deep appreciation for them the Shadows seem like some old mens band compared with the Ventures...(no disrespect intended whatsoever to anyone)
My dad was a great music man and I listen to a lot of music and a variety and this song rocks !!!!!
Oh come on!!Aman from a time when a man has 4 children ,was married when he was 20. Still great music lover of all!!from creadance Clearwater,ZZ top,Waylon and willie,. A nice man taken too early, too young but taken by a 2nd wife,needing to get rid of him in a old horrible facility!!! Love you always,dad!!!
Giving all their best in their instrument . Makes one feel like also giving one's best on the dance floor. Hats off to all of you 💖
Unquestionably the best rendition of this iconic song ever played.
Steve Hammond You should listen The Ventures live in Japan - 1966, and you’ll sure understand what version is the best one....
I don"t know how many "ICONIC" songs there ....but this defiantly one of them.Thanks you to the Ventures
I'm 108 years old and still like this.
I wanna go back to the days when you could hear all the 60s amazing music on the AM radio. And you could call the radio station and request your favorite.
Sensational drumming by both drummers!! Great rendition. Thanks for posting.
So long Don, last remaining member of the original Ventures. RIP
General babbitt is still alive afaik
After watching this glorious video, who would not want to DO Max Weinberg?!?!
This is still the best ever in the music world, can not help but smile. Loving the Ventures❤
This song has stood the test of time!! AWESOME
I love how the drummers are having so much fun 😄
If it isn't fun- Stop doing it!
