      My lady and I saw him in in Eureka Springs earlier this year...he opened for Steve Earle....should have been the other way around......Junior was amazing and fun....and his wife was sooo good on guitar and vocals! I want to see them again!

    Instrumental surf is this odd little micro genre that the vast majority of folks I run across just don't get. I can't see any of those "non-getters" listening to something like this and not having a fantastic time. I hope this guy lives to be 100 years old playing music like this!

    • @klbax63
      @klbax63 7 років тому +8

      I get it!!!! I love instrumental surf guitar music the original era of Surf was about 1960 through about 62 and it influenced many young guy's to start playing guitar.It of course was a major influence on the original sound of the Beach boys and guy's like Jan and Dean. Sometime in the 60's The original instrumental surf music went kind of underground where it was embraced by places like Scandinavia and other non english speaking places it does pop up every now and then in the mainstream but if you search youtube you can find tons of great surf guitarists and bands the genre is alive and well today
