A Dig This Archival Repost: PUT ON A STACK OF 45s - HAWAII 5-O by THE VENTURES!!!!!!
from DIG THIS WITH BILL MESNIK AND RICH BUCKLAND- THE SPLENDID BOHEMIANS · host Rich Buckland and Bill Mesnik
In honor of the documentary THE VENTURES: STARS ON GUITARS, currently running on Amazon Prime, Bill and Rich are reposting their tribute to the instrumental group that promoted surf music and Mosrite guitars around the world, recorded over 200 albums, and out-sold the Beatles in Japan 2 to 1. (which only goes to show, once again, that your faithful correspondents, The Splendid Bohemians, have their arthritic fingers on the racing pulse of cultural relevance). This doc is also a moving tribute to maternal love: Don Wilson's mom, Josie, gave the group their name, produced their first single, and made sure their early records got played. Shows you what great things can happen for a fellow when his mom decides to support her son's passion.
