Cool! Thanks, Doug.. Don't all of those seagulls make a mess in your music room?

Doug Beaumier · Post by **Doug Beaumier** » 1 Jul 2017 5:19 pm

Yes, it's a mess in here! And I gave the maid the week off.

Cool. Love the spaghetti western vibe...

That's it, Jim! spaghetti western/surf... I love that stuff.

Jim Cohen · Post by **Jim Cohen** » 1 Jul 2017 7:16 pm

It's a funny crossover, isn't it, between westerns, which took place in hot, dry, dusty terrain, and surf music, which took place on the beach. But the soundtracks overlap quite a bit, don't they?

Doug Beaumier · Post by **Doug Beaumier** » 1 Jul 2017 7:34 pm

Yeah, a lot of crossover. A lot of movie themes and TV themes from the early 60s have that vibe... spy movies (J. Bond, Peter Gunn Theme), spaghetti westerns and surf guitar (Ventures, Shadows). That's the stuff I first learned on guitar and it's still etched in my brain!

Surf-spy western gets all over and under your skin like sand. Love it, Doug.

Man, Doug I listened on my computer downstairs that has much better speakers and Wow! again. I will probably watch 'Endless Summer' and 'On any Sunday' this holiday because of your song, you totally caught the mood and made it fresh again, hope you have some Clams or Lobster over the 4th weekend!

Thanks Craig!

I have some clams every time I play, but Doug is better...

I don't know, Jim. You wouldn't want to hear the first few takes of this song! No one will ever hear them!

Craig Stock · Post by **Craig Stock** » 2 Jul 2017 1:03 pm

Sorry Jim. I should have said Oysters, but fry those clams in New England and they're just as good!

Doug - great job! I really like your version of this classic surf tune. But then I've liked every song you've posted. Thanks again - I'm re-tuning one of my six string lap steels to D9 tonight because of this.

Very nice Doug but it is winter here and I'm freezing at work. I'll have another listen in January.

Great job Doug - that warmed me up a bit!

You've got that Airline sounding good!

Hope you gave those seagulls a chip or 2

Cheers from OZ
