This version has the warmth and the depth of sound, which derives from a record not a CD. The excitement when I first heard this song on the radio has come back to me.
Don't forget the fact that only an analog type of amplifier can completely capture the full analog spectrum. No solid state device can beat vacuum tubes.💪
Actually this sounds compressed to the hilt and very digital in the UA-cam transfer, would give you severe listening fatigue after 10 minutes, though I'm sure the single sounded great.
The song that made me pick up and learn guitar. 17 years later and I'm so grateful. Almost 30 years old but as a kid, I heard this song and put down piano forever there after. I knew I wanted to do that sick vibrato.
My father Joseph Saraceno was the King of instrumental Hits in the early '60's. He produced a bunch of Top 10 Ten Hits. Out of Limits, Let's Go, Surfers Stomp, No Matter What Shape Your Stomach's In, Hawaii Five-O, The Ventures A Go Go. He had a great career. Marco
Are you kidding? Have you heard today's pop music? It's all samples and shit -- no melody. It doesn't give the listener anything. Then again, if you discount the repetitive "lyrics" they're largely instrumentals -- the question is whether they count as music. Also, what do you count as modern? Fair amount of instrumentals in the 70s, 80s and 90s, etc. It just depends very heavily on the genre, because you need expressive enough instruments to make the songs interesting and only certain genres (and styles) get real airplay. So many songs, especially longer ones, don't get any airplay and so, people simply don't know about them. Numbers of requests aren't enough for algorithm suggestions either. I think some of the "epic" quality is determined by the production. Back then the record companies put resources in it and emphasized radioplay and singles. That also allowed "bands" like Marketts, which AFAIK was just one guy and session musicians for the recordings. Now, the production is lighter because of less resources, smaller record sales and due to emphasis on live concerts, where you'd either get a different or "thinner" (i.e. possibly disappointing) live performances or you'd have to do shows with a backing track.
The surf stuff's cool & this & King Dick Dale are great but the blues & jazz were SO GOOD in the 60s..Davis Coltrane Evans Jimmy Smith Oliver Nelson Art Blakey Oscar Peterson & SOOO many others..Musselwhite's CHRISTO REDEMPTOR...are you KIDDING? but even leaving those out...Soulful Strut The Horse Grazing in the Grass & all those Booker Ts Herb Albert's & Al Hirt too....maybe the best 60s SURF instrumental but no WAY the best overall...though Dale's Miserlou is SO GOOD & don't forget the movie stuff..The Good the Bad & the Ugly..James Bond Pink Panther...Wow ! I'd go Christo Redemptor The Horse Soulful Strut Grazin Chicken Shack Lee Morgan's SideWinder at LEAST a dozen Coltranes a few Booker Ts & more as FAR SUPERIOR....maybe you haven't heard those...I'm old.
Yes! Yes! Yes! And "Telestar" by the Tornados and "White Siver Sands" by Bill Back's combo and "Last Night" by the Bar Keys and "Because They're Young" by Duane Eddy.
Produced by Joe Saraceno, this record was released September 1963 as "The Outer Limits". However, due to the debut of the new science fiction anthology TV series with that same title, WB Records was asked by Joseph Stefano Productions and United Artists TV Studios to change the title, so the record was withdrawn from public sale and reissued on October 1, 1963 as "Out Of Limits".
I got this in January, 1964; my fifth rock instro after "Nut Rocker" (B.Bumble & the Stingers), "Green Onions" (Booker T. & the MG's), "Wild Weekend" (The Rockin' Rebels) and "Pipeline" (The Chantay's). For the first two weeks of February it was the #3 record in the US in Billboard behind The Beatles' "I Want to Hold Your Hand" [#1] and Lesley Gore's "You Don't Own Me" [#2]. The British Invasion had arrived and the golden era of the rock & roll instrumental hit single was nearing the end.
In reality, the music on this record was made by the premier LA session musicians informally known as the Wrecking Crew, using an arrangement by bass guitarist Ray Pohlman.
There is actually a Documentary called The Wrecking Crew that is available (currently on Prime) - produced by Tommy Tedesco's son. It's an amazing and somewhat mind blowing film when you learn things you never would have believed. For example, Glen Campbell started in The Wrecking Crew, played with the Beach Boys and later used the "Crew" on his own albums. Virtually the entire Beach Boys "Pet Sounds" album was recorded by the Crew as led by Brian Wilson.
@@youmustbethistall5861 - Thanks. I've read about them in articles and heard of a documentary but have not seen it. It is amazing how much they accomplished every time they were involved in recording a piece of music. They were consummate professionals who enhanced everything they touched.
@@Noomz-of-Earl If you're able to locate the Documentary "Muscle Shoals" I recommend that one as well. Literally about studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama which contributed to Aretha's meteoric rise and what amounts to be the birth of Southern Rock. Another great film.
@@youmustbethistall5861 - I have it on DVD and learned a lot about some of the music I have enjoyed since the '60s. Previously, I had only seen the name Rick Hall in the label credits of the Clarence Carter records I owned, so this doc told a story I needed to know -- very enjoyably and very well.
@@eromy7696 The single was originally titled Outer Limits but they were forced to change it. I was 12 at the time and I remember hearing it was the folks (producers? ) of the tv show Outer Limits who forced them to change the name NOT Rod Serling from The Twilight Zone
A spacey instrumental especially for those bound for careers in electronics and engineering. The song conjured up images of rockets and missiles reaching space (Outer Limits) or a target in Russia.
I believe when the tv show was made and music for the theme song was made, no one knew the opening song of the show would become a big hit. So the name “Marketts” was made up to put on the 45’ record. It was just another hit record that the wrecking crew made.
it took me over 50 years to find out what the name of this song was. I would hear it on the radio after it started never catch the name. it was in the movie Pulp Fiction.finally tonight I heard the name o.n The Coast to Coast AM radio show. well worth the wait great song

Yes, it's just that it's not a song, it's an instrumental.
I know it's an instrumental Stephen.
@@wallacegeller2111 But you called it a song. It doesn't have lyrics. It's like calling opera 'good ol' kuntree music.' Just messing with ya.
Totally agree about the french horns plus the drums.
Great song
There are so many movies that use this song but I can only ever think of the outsiders
What about pulp fiction
60's instrumentals....8th Wonder of the World....
I have to agree!!
Ha...Tommy Tedesco and the Wrecking Crew. I loved this as a 12 year old; never dreamed it was session cats...
After the 2009
anyone here from the outsiders?
MEEE

Wow! That's some incredible testimony there. Thank you for sharing ☺️
It was originally released as "Outer Limits" Before the lawsuit. After the lawsuit the name was changed to "Out Of Limits"
thanks for the info. when i first looked, i thought the title was a misprint but wasn't aware that there was a lawsuit
ONE OF THE GREATEST SONGS EVER MADE!!!!
It sure takes me places! Memories of 1962!
A most excellent instrumental of the 60's. 🎸
✨stay gold ponyboy ✨
Awesome! The Outsiders movie brought me here!
I saw that on hbo in 87 at age five and it introduced me to this
Rock instrumentals such as Out of Limits were standouts in the early 60s--how come there are no modern equivalents?? 😯🎸🎸😼
There is! Check out messer chups ;)

Because the 60's rocked!
One of the great ROCK instrumentals -- remember its release ( I was 14 ! )
For Rod Serling (RIP)
i remember listening to the sixties and bought it.Sounded a bit like the Shadows and The Tornadoes//Great track
Possibly the best of the 1960’s instrumentals.

Yeah, like the mini skirt.
I first heard this in Outsiders on hbo in 87 and saw pulp fiction in theaters at age 12
I remember the Outer Limits Monday nights on ABC 1964.
This song,I hear,WAS originally titled "Outer Limits" but the producers of that show didn't like that idea.
It actually sounds more like the Twilight Zone Theme.
Ahh.... This tune, "Green Onions" and "Sleepwalk".
Three greatest rock instrumentals of all time!!! 😁😁😁😁
Oh!!!! & we can't forget
Link Wray!!! "RUMBLE" !!! 🙏🙏 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Yes! Yes! Yes! And "Telestar" by the Tornados and "White Siver Sands" by Bill Back's combo and "Last Night" by the Bar Keys and "Because They're Young" by Duane Eddy.

Grew up 50 s and 60 s rock and roll thank you , old still goody
I alway's thought the label was cool on the WB 45 Especially the song. I grew up hearing my dad playing it when I was a kid.
it's timeless.
Wish I was as tough as I feel listening to this song. They should have found a place for this in the Mad Men soundtrack
The song is fab!
Looked for this song for the longest time, confused it with the Twilight Zone theme. Thanks for the post.
Me too. I first heard this song in the late 1980's and never knew the name nor the artist. It took me until 2024 to finally find out.
A top 10 hit in 1963 in Chicago
Hit #3 WLS

The Ventures did a great cover version of this tune in their excellent album "The Ventures In Space" released January 1964.
