Rumble played on the Wurlitzer 1800 uploaded by request. This is not the same 45 record of Rumble played on the Dual 1229 turntable in my other video. This is the worn copy that has always been on the Wurlitzer. This 1800 still has the original Zenith Cobra cartridge, which is not to easy on records or has the best of sound, and the other two Wurlitzers have been upgraded to light tracking magnet stereo cartridges for better quality sound.

The ONLY way to hear this one. King tone here. The instrumental standard that others can only hope to imitate.

To some, this tune embodies the rebellious youth of the 50's, but to any Chicago TV viewer, it's the very tune that introduced us to Son Of Svengoolie (modified, of course)! Still a cool tune all these years.

Very cool. Thats back when tough guys were really tough; none of this cowardly drive by shit I live around. Just know some of us 'youngins' respect what must have really been, 'the good ol days'.

Back in the 50's we lived in a low housing project in Boston. We wore low jeans, tight fitting jeans with black garrison belts,some with silver studs, and shaved buckles. We wore t-shirts and rolled up our short t-shirts we we kept our packs of Luckies the lit end of a long unfiltered cigarette hang out the side of our mouths.We also wore black motorcycle boots with taps on the heels.If we got into a rumble with another gang, we just whipped off our "garry" belts and flailed away.We were Ruggies

Surf rock had some power for it's day. I was watching metal evolution the other day and someone said that if surf rock would have had the amps and effects that deep purple and Black Sabbath had heavy metal would have came ten years early. That Is so true!

It's the stylus that actualy makes contact with the grooves. In the old days the stylus's were made of steel and had to be replaced very often. Now imagine a steel needle sitting in the groove of a record scraping along. Friction is really destructive. I used to use a pin to play my old 45's as an experiment. Pretty cool how the sound was still transferred so you could hear it. Diamonds transferred the sound to the cartridge more efficiently without so much wear.

@mattsprinter It is the cartridge, the tonearm can be adjusted to handle a higher quality cartrige. My other two Wurlitzers have updated Pickering magnetic stereo cartridges, which also greatly improves the sound as the Wurlitzer does have a wide range quality amp. I have a better copy of Rumble playing on the Seeburg that has an updated Pickering stereo cartridge.

Summer 1958 -- Hollister, CA. Some guy in black (and "pegged") Levis, a righteous "bob-job" knucklehead powered Harley-D, a road house, and this tune on the box.
