Surfing in NY
Surfs up in Upper Western NY! Of course the waves on the Erie Canal aren’t much to look at much less to try and surf in. However there is some surfing in Lake Ontario and in fact there is a surfing club in Rochester NY.
Based on another thread that talked about surf music it dawned on me that I had not played a surf song in years. So I thought I would give it a try again.
I used BiaB style CC_Hive-Ev. 8th Alt. Rock Gru for this song.
I deleted all but the drums, which I heavily modified to better fit the song. I am playing the bass, rhythm and lead guitars and the farfisa organ. The Farfisa organ is a free VSTi that I found. I played it via my MIDI keyboard controller.
I tried to make this sound like a live recording. The lead guitarist is using the normal ‘lots of reverb’ sound that was popular in the mid 60’s.
Let me know what you think.
