    I’m in my mid 70’s. Never in my wildest dreams did I suspect the music we did in the early 60’s would manage to survive for decades, only to be performed by talented young ladies . . . who are younger than my own grandchildren.
    Back then we were kids who enjoyed just the thrill of being on stage and performing for like-minded teenagers.
    Now, seeing ‘The Surfrajettes’ in 2021? Unbelievable is all I can say!
    Good Job!!

    Walk Don't Run was a song in my guitar class that was in our lesson book that we would eventually learn. Needles to say I taught it to myself because I love surf music and I just had to learn it!!!!!! It remains one of my favorites!! Plus when you're in Guitar Center and everybody else is playing the forbidden riff or Free Bird and you whip out Walk Don't Run, you definitely feel like the coolest person in the room LOL! Thank you ladies!!

  • @BangsarRia

    "Walk Don't Run" was one of the first songs I learnt to play too (in 1968), and still one of my favorites. But you play with such a light touch. That's why I never get tired of listening to your music.

    Summer 1963 - my first (in person) introduction to electric guitar. The neighbors next door had hired a band for their party, and they were playing Ventures songs all night. Needless to say, I was buying Ventures albums as soon as I could save up the money. I know you hear it all the time, but it's so cool you guys are keeping the flame.

    I first listened to The Ventures when I was 5 years old back in 1971 in my hometown of Mexico City, the only record we had in the house was "Knock Me Out" I would get in our TV room where we have the record player and stayed there for hours at the time playing the same record over and over and over with a broomstick and a cord tied on each end playing air guitar. Later somebody brought Santana music home and the same thing. It was not until probably a few years back thanks to Spotify that I was able to listen to the original music from the LP again. Thank you for keeping the music alive!!!

    Good job. I have the original Walk Don't Run album. I played in a rock band in the mid 60s. When we played walk don't run you couldn't tell it from the Ventures. I had a 1959 Stratocaster. He had a Jaguar. Our lead player was that good. RIP Wesley.

    Great idea to drop the glis from '64 in! I've always dreamed of forming an instrumental surf band, and calling them "The Dentures" (I'm 74). In my band days, '60s - '70s, we always opened with "Walk--Don't Run". It's a timeless fave.

    Where to start? !!!! Girls ! At the 3:40 minute of this video, I checked out, The Ventures:Stars on Guitars Movie.
    I've Amazon Prime, so it just played on my computer... I had to check it out after your introduction! Damn glad I did. I watched it start to finish, then had a coffee, and watched it again, start to finish.
    Speechless ! You're an integral part of telling the 'story' of the Ventures. You Stood up and Represented! Kudos to your Band, and I miss Sarah!. Kudos for being so very respectful, while having the ability to pull off searing versions of Ventures Songs, again, in your OWN style. That's what the Ventures did.
    I admit I purchased it and watched it simply because the Surfrajettes were in it. I quickly realized this was a high production value... telling of the tale. It, (The Ventures:Stars on Guitars) is now in my permanent collection. What a Fantabulous View! I'll watch it again and again thru the years.
    Covid Suks! It hurt your Band, hurt all of us, and left us without new material for so long. I just watched the Halloween song! Life is good again! Thank you for that.
    Anyway, wanted to give a shout out from Santa Cruz California. We LOVE you here!
    and yeah...I'm Jonesing over a sparkle lime green Creston..... Thank you for asking!
    Mike !!!
