Surf (Instrumental)
Heavy double picked power surf, with major drive and low-E growl. Flying glissandoes, shouts of joy, and chants of "El Toro." This is one solid driving surf instro, very high on energy.
Surf (Instrumental)
This fine tune is a little on the light side, with ringing Spanish chords evoking images of warm afternoon village squares. A very nice tune.
Surf (Instrumental)
Fast driving Link Wray inspired twango, thundering drums and bass, and jammin' fast paced guitar.
Surf (Instrumental)
This slinky number rings with charm and a sense of a funky bar room. The quirky guitar lines and bass rumble offset one another well. It's like Duane Eddy in a cantina.
