Hi, friends !

My apology for not having posted
new music here for a long, long time !
no use to say I´ve been too busy
with other duties, but to celebrate
my 75th birthday today (or actually
yesterday in my time zone) I just
got this little surftune out of the
oven !

Here is the link:

http://on.soundcloud.com/TuSX2

..and here you have the lyrics
and the other information:

Feel The Urgin´Need For Surfin´( Words and Music by Norman Wibe)

Feel the urgin´
need for surfin´
friends assemblin´
shakin´, tremblin´
oh, my Darlin´
we can´t stay turfin´
everyone´s waitin´
for the drive down to the beach

Tidal waves are growing high
feel the flow under your board

Surf is risin´
swells enticin´
gotta go there
it´s so excitin´
takin´you ridin´
no more hidin´
trust my guidin´
and we´ll be glidin´
on the waves

Tidal waves are growing high
feel the flow under your board

We´ll be tryin´
to be flyin´
over the ocean
waves are rollin´
so appallin´
you think you´re fallin´
darlin´, darlin´
I´m fallin´for you, my dear !

Style: _SPRKLES.STY

Instros: Bass 2609, Piano 1772, Drums: Disco drums with house loop, Guitar1 1770, Guitar 2 1771, Pedal Steel 2824, Vocal Aahs 3063.

Recorded on lenovo Ideacenter with Mixcraft 9 , compressor and reverb used

Happy Birthday, Dani!

I like the style you used. The pedal steel fits your song quite well. It's clever the way you turned around the "falling" while surfing to the "falling" for her.

Dani, another surfer's winner.

Super vocal, as usual, and mix.
Nice backing tracks.
You sang "falling for you my dear". To late as you fell of that surfboard a couple of years ago grin

Hi, Dani.

Happy (late) birthday!

Upbeat song, nice chord changes.

Plus, you used "turfin'". laugh

I enjoyed this a lot!

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Happy belated birthday, Dan. A drummer friend of mine always claims we wrote like 5,000 surfer songs in the 60s. I say we wrote one 5,000 times. NONE of them were ever this cool. Sounds like you caught an easy wave for this one. Kept waiting for the wipeout, but you glided right through the soup. I paddled out to ride it again with you. What a great choice of band and style. Pedal really sound perfect, and you got those singers along for an extra splash.


Enjoy whatever happens!

This summer has been missing your surf tune, but glad you fixed that smile Congratulations for the start of your year of celebration smile Pleasant summery chord progression with modulations on those tidal waves. Nice band, I like those gentle guitars. And your voice carries reliably the board of love.

Dani,

You could have really given Brian Wilson and the boys some inspirational ideas back in the day! I ALWAYS enjoy these summer breezy tunes of yours! Great sounds!

Thanks, TB
