    Awesome! Everybody love Surf music. If they say No. Ask then what song they like from any Tarantino movie. Born 1960
    San Diego. Then to Orange county. Literally grew up with these Tunes. Absolutely love them. Love the way Tom plays too I'm new to your channel.
    Nothing like finding a decent pair of roller skates in the early 60s. When Clay wheels came out. On a set of tracker trucks on a Logan Earth Ski. Right before these guys said they Wanted us to try these new polyurethane Wheels with German
    No LUBE needle bearings. We all said WHAT!
    Holy guacamole Batman. Total game changer.

    I LOVE listening to this reverb-drenched music! I saw the Ventures in concert about 20 years ago. The crowd was out of their seats dancing after the first note! By the way, Nokie Edwards was one of the most INCREDIBLE rock guitarists to ever stand on a stage! Nokie, along with the legendary Dick Dale, practically INVENTED surf music back in the 60’s...both men should get the recognition they truly DESERVE!

    I love surf music. I grew up in the 50's and 60's and this was the first guitar sound I ever really heard. Growing up on the beach made it even more fantastic. I hope I can play it someday as good as you, I'll give it a run.🎸Thanks Man.

    Most people don’t realize that “Surf Rider” was originally named “Spudnik”, a play on the Russian satellite Sputnik, and was written by The Ventures’ lead player, Nokie Edwards, shortly after at that Satellite went into orbit, which was before the Surf craze. When Surf Instrumentals became the rage, in the early to mid-1960s The Ventures changed the name of the song to “Surf Rider” and included it on the their Surfing album. It’s one of the many tidbits of Ventures lore that my friend Nokie shared with me. Sadly, he died last year.

    • @nickclark73
      @nickclark73 4 года назад +15

      @@jeffhussey1089 The Ventures released it originally as Spudnik on their Mashed Potatoes and Gravy album. Later the Lively Ones asked permission to use part of the song on one of their own. As it turned out, they copied it note for note, calling it Surf Rider. The Ventures earned royalties for the song, so going forward they dropped Spudnik and referred to their version as Surf Rider too.

Today's the day, I connected a delay pedal into a chorus pedal and into a multieffect pedal with a bunch of different filters and I got the sound. The song itself is super easy to learn and memorize. The hardest part is getting down the correct timing and play with the right rhythm.
    Anyways im so glad I spent a few minutes to learn this one, it's really fun to play and relaxing. Its one of those songs that sound really complicated but is actual super simple and easy to play. I really appreciate the on screen notations. I just subscribed to the channel.

      pschroeter1 This one is “deceptively” simply. I’ve been playing it for years now, but I remember when I first decided to learn it (back in the 1960s), I thought it would be breeze, not so - at least not to be able to play it as fluidly and as well as you saw it played in this video. Most people don’t realize that “Surf Rider” was originally named “Spudnik”, a play on the Russian satellite Sputnik, and was written by The Ventures’ lead player, Nokie Edwards, shortly after at that Satellite went into orbit, which was before the Surf craze. When Surf Instrumentals became the rage, in the early to mid-1960s The Ventures changed the name of the song to “Surf Rider” and included it on the their Surfing album. It’s one of the many tidbits of Ventures lore that my friend Nokie shared with me. Sadly, he died last year.

      @@hankunck2089 I highly highly disagree. (Which is fair since i doubt we have similar playing styles) I learned this whole song in about 30-40 minutes. I think it sounds really difficult to play but is actually very easy. The only thing that can cause trouble and requires a couple days of practice is getting the timing right. The notes and arpeggios are really easy it's just playing with the correct Rhythm on the correct Beats comes with a little more time. But if you are a somewhat seasoned player, you should be able to memorize and play this within a few hours max.

    Yeah I also say that your tone is perfect also, love that instrumental I first discovered it on the soundtrack while they were playing the credits at the end of the movie Pulp Fiction and had to find out who performed it, after that I recorded it and play it back often as well as "Rumble" by Link Ray & the Wraymen during the same movie's diner scene.
