I remember the cartoon...
We've got a gorilla for sale Magilla Gorilla for sale Wont you, buy him Take him home and try him Gorilla for sale ...but not that particular episode. However the subject of "surf music" is a familiar one. Probably the 1st R&R based instrumentals I heard. Using the clean sounding Fender guitars (Strat, Jazzmaster, Jaguar, Precision Bass) and amps (Showman, Dual Showman, Twins) The Chantays - Pipeline The Pyramids - Penetration The Surfaris - Wipe Out The Ventures - Walk Don't Run, Perfidia and the "King of the Surf Guitar" (and lefty/upside down guitar brethren)... ...Dick Dale & the Del-Tones - Miserlou Of course you've also got all The Beach Boys and Jan & Dean hits. tA Tribal Disorder http://www.soundclick.com...rmusic.htm "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn. C'mon y'all." | |

Take it from me, on some levels, it's a pain in the a$$. But since I learned that way from the beginning, I don't even think about it anymore. That's just the way it is Some things will never change. tA Tribal Disorder http://www.soundclick.com...rmusic.htm "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn.

I learned to play right-handed. Maybe I should buy a lefty geetar? Good luck. I had a lefty guitar strung properly (for a lefty) for a bit. It felt like I was starting from ground zero. Too frustrating. Maybe you've got more patience than I do. tA Tribal Disorder http://www.soundclick.com...rmusic.htm "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn.

I remember the name Magilla Gorilla, but not the cartoon.
George of the Jungle, that I remember somewhat. HR Puff n Stuff. The funkiest cartoon theme I remember is from Fat Albert. This post not for the wimp contingent. All whiny wusses avert your eyes. | |
