I'm listening to this for a class assignment... though I agree with a lot of the commenters here that the vocalist is terrible, I really like the instrumentation.

I was fortunate to have "lived" the 50's and 60's music. Would change when or where I grew up for anything. The music is legendary. This song is no exception.

On this day in 1963 {August 25th} the flip-side of "Wipe Out", "Surfer Joe", entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart at position #92; and on September 22nd, 1963 it peaked at #62 {for 1 week} and spent 6 weeks on the Top 100...The week it peaked at #62, the Beach Boys were at #11 with "Surfer Girl"...

So much brilliant music came out of the '60s. Then there was this.

My old supervisor hated surfer music since he was born in Cleveland, Ohio and never learned to swim. LOSER!

I still have this 45 rpm -- one of my three older sisters got it out of the jukebox at the recreation center that my dad was the director of at that time.
