Indeed, don't get me wrong I have nothing against surf music (Some of my best friends own Ventures LPs ) but an evening of it is too much, barring the die-hards. For me the odd track does get my foot-a-tappin' but four or five in a row and my interest wanes and it becomes background sound. Most certainly surf has produced it's fair share of all time classics.
Mart	Indeed Zoo, but soundtracks last forever, throw it at the wall hits don`t.
zooloo	I think the limitation of surf music is that a track sounds great, two less so and an album/evening is enough to provoke drowning oneself. Great for soundtracks.
Michael	Well, well, well! What a surprising thread! I can't help but agree. It's a little micro-scene all its own. I have plugged Surf and Rockabilly for audiovisuals a few times over the past few years, figuring they are fun, clear sounds whose times must come again sooner or later. Despite the help of Pulp Fiction, it hasn't really happened yet. Advertisers still go for Lounge music instead! My addy: michael@a-lyric.com (who woulda thunk). Maybe we can cook up a few ideas.
