The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity ~Dorothy Parker
Their work sounds as if it came from a movie score doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteI thought that about the Aqua Velvets, as did others.
DeleteSeñor Doe, it just occurred to me that you might have been referring to the "James Bond Theme" which I would count as vestigial--it remains imbedded in current movie themes--and only there, frozen in place since 1962.
DeleteThe Aqua Velvets were more contemporary and extended the genre.
The tunes make me want to hang-ten on the surf out at San Onofre.
ReplyDeleteI haven't to San Onofre yet this year. The water's still too chilly. But it'a a favorite.
DeleteReminds me of Im Bann der Riesenwellen. Well, that's how they wrote it on IMDb.
