I was hooked on the Ventures the first time I heard them in the mid to late sixties. My aunt had their LP and I would play it over and over.

Freaking icon in the surf revolution - music is still awesome to listen to. RIP Nokie!

Annette could have quite an effect on a pre teen male.

I love me some Ventures but it was the Surfaris that hit it big with the original Wipeout song back in 1963.
