    One of the only instrumentals that I never got tired of hearing, to this day. 71 now, and still play this and others in my car on CD's that I have made up over the years. Another good one, is Miserlou by Dick Dale & the Deltones...

      @@paulyakaitis3352 Thanks Paul to both you and Louis Smooth for giving me the longest lasting earworm I've ever had! I couldn't stop hearing Misirlou from the moment I awoke until I thankfully fell asleep. I even made mental changes to the chord progressions in my head so the song was different at times. One day, it finally ended after weeks, maybe a month. Try this on for size - watch the video of the 78 foot wave being ridden by Garrett McNamara off the coast of Nazare, Portugal.. This is the largest wave ever ridden - now imagine you are the rider and Misirlou (also Pipeline, just for fun) is playing in your head. See if you don't get a big, fat earworm like I had. Enjoy.

      WOW! He said, "We would like to play this for you now." I guess he meant one of them would put the needle on the 78. Either say you are going to "perform" to the recording or have the guts to play live... even if you goof up in spots. I know. It was done all the time, except some people like Roy Orbison sang live, at least in every video I have seen.

      It was well done because they were playing to the original recording...the instrumental equivalent of Lip Syncing. There are no amps, no cords from the guitars, and as a drummer, I can tell you that there was no contact with the cymbal by a drumstick during that entire performance.

      It may have but it was Dick Dale that started it all back in the late 50's. Some call this surf music, others know it as Dick Dale music. Dale impressed Leo Fender so much Fender built an amp and a Fender Strat for Dale. Go check out in the link below "Let's Go Trippin'" it was the first surf-rock hit. ua-cam.com/video/W1gskj1VQR0/v-deo.html ------> Dick Dale
      dickdale.com Richard Anthony Monsour, known professionally as Dick Dale, was an American rock guitarist. He was a pioneer of surf music, drawing on Middle Eastern music scales and experimenting with reverberation. Dale was known as "The King of the Surf Guitar", which was also the title of his second studio album.Wikipedia

    I was 13 when Pipeline was released. I loved it then and still do today. I play drums... started in 1961. I can very much appreciate the work that went into creating this tune. There's a lot that usually happens as a tune evolves. It always amazes me how a song/tune ends up. Because.... when you think of it... any tune... can turn out being finished in a number of ways and it's beautiful when it all clicks and band members gel and something like this is created. This one and others... Apache, Telstar, Teen Beat and Wipeout to name a few ... influenced me in my early teens and before. Fun stuff.

      It looks as if The Chantays had to mime their performance as a lot groups did on TV did back then. The orchestra in the background is made up of top flight musicians (even though they're contracted to play corny arrangements for Mr. Welk's TV show). They would probably encourage the kids in the band to keep on because the music is actually good. Pipeline is a legit piece of music. :)

      Actually he had great success recording popular music current to the decades including surf music. Check out his record Breakwater on You Tube, it might surprise you. Also his recording of the surf standard Pipeline. In 1967 he recorded Sonny & Cher's The Beat Goes On who had released it earlier in the year. In 1968 he recorded Green Tambourine. Remember that the LA session players The Wrecking Crew (jazz and big band musicians) provided the instruments on virtual every rock recording out of LA including The Beach Boys. Lawrence Welk had members of The Wrecking Crew in his orchestra!

    So sad to hear about Brian Carmen. As a young teen I remember seeing The Chantays on The Lawrence Welk Show.
    Their appearance was not anticipated and really caught my Brother Grant and me by surprise!
    There they were, in full black and white(LOL), playing those beautiful Fenders!
    As a matter fact, the Dot 45RPM of The Chantays "Pipeline" was the very first record I ever bought with my very own money!
    I first heard it on the radio on the way to Cleveland Stadium to watch the Indians play on opening day April, 1963.

    I cut my teeth on this and other surf music. As a kid, ~8-9ish, with help from an older cousin who was in a 'surf' band, I learned Pipeline and Walk Don't Run on my old Western Auto 'Truetone' (Kay) archtop acoustic. Now ~55 yrs and many guitars later, with my drummer wife, we're typically a classic rock acoustic duo. But, I still keep home-made backing tracks of Pipeline, Walk Don't Run, Wipeout & Hawaii 5-0 on my loop. GREAT for switching to electric and playing the leads. ('Specially when we had our casino boat gig. The seas would get a little rough and we'd surf our way thru the medley. Baby boomers & millennials alike would come to life! This music is timeless. The boat has since moved south about 200 miles...no more boat gig...dammit! lol
