Most people don’t realize that “Surf Rider” was originally named “Spudnik”, a play on the Russian satellite Sputnik, and was written by The Ventures’ lead player, Nokie Edwards, shortly after at that Satellite went into orbit, which was before the Surf craze. When Surf Instrumentals became the rage, in the early to mid-1960s The Ventures changed the name of the song to “Surf Rider” and included it on the their Surfing album. It’s one of the many tidbits of Ventures lore that my friend Nokie shared with me. Sadly, he died last year.
👍
I was confused as to why it was called Sputnik on one album and surf rider on another later album... that’s a cool story , thanks for sharing it!
Awesome. Do you know why/ how I keep getting notifications that the ventures have a new album? Like every few months lol.
@@jeffhussey1089 The Ventures released it originally as Spudnik on their Mashed Potatoes and Gravy album. Later the Lively Ones asked permission to use part of the song on one of their own. As it turned out, they copied it note for note, calling it Surf Rider. The Ventures earned royalties for the song, so going forward they dropped Spudnik and referred to their version as Surf Rider too.
Thanks a lot.... no lo..sabia.... pero si sabia que es una cancion de surf riders....maravillosa...gracias bendiciones!!!! Saludos desde Lima Peru y desde las olas del .mar!!!! No importan los wipe outs😆
I hope there's a MAJOR surf rock revival soon.
It's one of the most underrated genres in my opinion.

Yesss
Heck yeah!!!
Los Straitjackets!
It's so melodic. I just wish I could get my guitar to sound half as good.
the jazzmaster in its natural environment
Or the Fender Jaguar!

Awesome! Everybody love Surf music. If they say No. Ask then what song they like from any Tarantino movie. Born 1960
San Diego. Then to Orange county. Literally grew up with these Tunes. Absolutely love them. Love the way Tom plays too I'm new to your channel.
Nothing like finding a decent pair of roller skates in the early 60s. When Clay wheels came out. On a set of tracker trucks on a Logan Earth Ski. Right before these guys said they Wanted us to try these new polyurethane Wheels with German
No LUBE needle bearings. We all said WHAT!
Holy guacamole Batman. Total game changer.
Born in E. LA '56, grew up in Orange County. Big part of my youth!! Countless days at Huntington Beach around lifeguard station 17
I love surf music. I grew up in the 50's and 60's and this was the first guitar sound I ever really heard. Growing up on the beach made it even more fantastic. I hope I can play it someday as good as you, I'll give it a run.🎸Thanks Man.
Thanks William!
Love that sound is that Duane Eddy ? Ha ha 😂
Whenever I hear this , ending scene of pulp fiction comes to my mind.. Whenever I close my eyes listening to this I see Vincent and Jules, walking out from the restaurant..Oh man! What a music!what a movie! You played very nice bro,very beautiful..
Thanks, it’s a great movie!
Dorks. They look like a couple of dorks.
I LOVE listening to this reverb-drenched music! I saw the Ventures in concert about 20 years ago. The crowd was out of their seats dancing after the first note! By the way, Nokie Edwards was one of the most INCREDIBLE rock guitarists to ever stand on a stage! Nokie, along with the legendary Dick Dale, practically INVENTED surf music back in the 60’s...both men should get the recognition they truly DESERVE!
i agree and disagree the Ventures were really never a Surf band like a lot of people think
Dick Dale straight surf oh yeah/had help from Leo Fender Dual Showman you know how many Amps thy blew up before getting it right?this and Fender's Outboard reverb unit make what the real sound of surf is
I'm going to hire this guy to play this at my funeral and If he doesn't show up,
neither will I.
LOL
@@bobsyeruncle4841
Tone - Perfect
Phrasing - Perfect
Timing - Perfect
Reverb - Perfect
The "tone" is perfect and so is the playing. Some cats use too much Rev/Trem. But you have the right balance for my ear and liking. Well done 👍🎸🎸🎸🎸🎵🎶
Thank you!
Well done
@M. S. There's no such thing lol
@M. S. Spring reverb.
The added reverberations that help create the wooshy, wavey and watery sound colors for a big part.
Is that a Jaguar or jazzmaster?
Best lesson for this song I´ve found so far!
Thank you!
only lesson I found, and I'm playing it right (for a change)
Bruce Lindquist posted a lesson on Surf Rider about 7 years ago. It's on TH-cam.
Hell, I'm a big fan of Tarantino's films, I love the soundtracks of his films, and thanks to you, I discovered such an undeservedly forgotten, and for Russia, completely unknown genre of music. Thank you so much, your entire channel is a treasure trove for me, long life, God bless you.
thats funny, because this song was intended to be played at the russian spudnik satelite
This reply is two years late but some of the best Surf Rock has been coming from Russia for years. Check out Messer Chups: th-cam.com/video/8Cn_5XimO2I/w-d-xo.html
@@henrykrinkle3I came to post this exact comment. Messer Chups have some super good albums for sure ✌️
@@henrykrinkle3Yes, I recently discover them and I love ‘em! Part of it might be Svettlana though 😊
@@festerofest4374 yeah, she's very easy on the eyes.
This is the surf channel I've been looking for such an under appreciated genre
Thanks for checking it out
Second that.
Check out Bruce Lindquist on TH-cam. He's posted a ton of surf tunes over the last few years!
Ahh, the tones... very tasty. The reverb, lush, but not too over washed. Perfect.
Thank you
Just needed a bit more surf drip!
i dont even play guitar (i play drums and bass) but i keep watching these videos for my own entertainment, but dude i really want to learn now! your such a good guitarist
Check out Bruce Lindquist on TH-cam! He's totally into surf guitar!
Makes me want a jazzmaster.
Ian Board i got a jaguar yesterday and it sounds so awesome am now getting in to surf rock
I got jaguar to..ahhh that sound with fender equipment
I bought a new Squier Jaguar about 7 years ago. Surf green, but I hate the bridge, not fond of the tuners either. It doesn't play like a Fender American, that's for sure!
OMG finally a tutorial for the advanced, im a private music teacher and videos in this format save me soooooo much time, thank you man.
Thanks!
🚩Man, you have taught me more in just two songs, then learning in two years. Was never a big fan of Tabs, You just changed that. Thanks
Best guitar fender ever built
Yes!
The Jaguar is also a good surf guitar!
Can't get enough of this
I think we should be leaving...
Thats probably a good idea
Ahahahah
Wasn't looking for this but I sure did like it. Drumming too is so solid & well- regulated. Doesn't call attention to itself but really makes " the sound" complete.
Thank you!
I want a jazz master now this is fucking awesome
Me too
I bought a Jaguar, I prefer it to the Jazz master!
This takes me to another dimension
Здорово, что тут ещё скажешь) Like!) 👍 С детства хотел научиться её играть. Когда, в 2000-ых годах, увидел, как играет один парень, понял, что не так уж это и сложно. Кстати, сыграл он её на фирменной именной и оригинальной (!) гитарой the Ventures 1965-го года выпуска, созданной специально для сёрфа. 🎸 Сегодня, спустя 15 лет, пересматривая "Pulp Fiction", ввёл в поиске Ютьюба и первым вышло ваше видео -- эмоции только положительные! 🙂
На какой аппаратуре это сыграно и, главное, на каком звуковом эффекте? Подскажите, пожалуйста, кто знает!)
@@Sergey_Naumov Поздний ответ ) Вся сёрф-музыка - это реверберацию ставить побольше. Остальные эффекты не так важны. ИМХО.
@@collobok Ответы всегда актуальны)) Это да, согласен. Здесь и комбарь фендер твин реверб вполне может быть.
Love the way you use the talent arm with the left hand.
Got a Jazzmaster last month and learned this. Thanks for the lesson! Great channel!
It's a bomb ! I play this melody with pleasure ! This guy's a master . Thanks !
Thank you!
Final theme of pulp fiction, very good !!!!!
fantastic cover the reverb is awesome every good surf rock song needs a good amount of verb and its perfect
Das war super Musik höre ich heute auch noch gerne und habe viele CD ❤😊
At 54, I just started playing and picked this as one of my two first songs to learn(The other is Rumble). This tab is slightly different than the Ultimate Guitar one, but I prefer this version. Playing YT at half speed is just about the perfect learning speed.
I'm from Brazil, I'm a surfer and guitarist and thanks to you I play these songs, thank you very much !!!!
Great!!!
Check out Bruce Lindquist on TH-cam! He's the King of surf guitar!
I'm giggling like a schoolgirl playing along with this as I learn it. A great tune and very well played.
Learned to play entire song in about an hour, thanks to your outstanding video!
Thank you so much!
Great!

"Zed is dead baby,Zed is dead..."
Nope. The quote is Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead.

"its not a motorbike, it's a chopper"
What happened to my Honda?
Who’s motorcycle is this? It’s a chopper, baby. Who’s chopper is this? Zed’s, baby. Who is Zed? Zed is dead, baby, Zed is dead.
Roll credits!
Отличное исполнение, 100 раз наверно уже переслушал )
Excellent. Jazzmasters Rule!
Thank you, I agree!
And Jaguars!
It's only been 15 seconds and you already got my like
TH-cam at its finest
Dislikes are from people who ate a kahuna burger instead of a royale with cheese
That was nothing short of AWESOME!
Thank you!
Nice use of the whammy!
Thanks!
Excellent¡ Remember: The Ventures, Brian Setzer & Straycats, Santo & Johnny, The Beach Boys and.... The Shadows... Thanx for the uploading & sharing¡ Cheers from the beautyful Tampa Bay, Florida. 🎸
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for watching!
Don't forget Dick Dale!
those are whole step bends in the lead I believe. such a compelling but simple tune.
Best song ever
I've had myself 3 JazzM over the years and this one sounds simply terrific for a reissue. It really has something. Of course the player also has a lot to do it. Vert good
Great!!! Now I´ll try to play it in my Squier Strat Affinity...
Awesome! Can't believe there are eight dislikes. Probably by people who wish they could play.
Thanks!
Thank you. I guess you can’t please everyone. 🤷🏻♂️
I wish I could play and didn't dislike. lol
TROLLS! 🤬 This is a great video!! 👍🏼👍🏼
Probably just bots
I bought my first jazzmaster just for spaghetti western and surf music and this will be my first song I learn
Try Mr. Moto, another great surf song!
Bruce Lindquist has posted a ton of surf tunes over the years on TH-cam.
Hi, thank you for making this video. I've been trying to get the notes by earing, but with the tabs included which are so clearly explained, plus the backing tracks i believe it is a great help not for me only, but to all those who want to learn how to play it also. Two thumbs up!. Greetings from Santiago, Chile.
Thank you, I’m glad my videos are helping!
Thanks for the tabs!!
Check out Bruce Lindquist on TH-cam! He's posted a ton of surf tunes over the years!
WOW... What an awesome lesson. I learned this in an hour. THANKS!!!!
Glad it helped!
I remember 50 years ago when I start playing the guitar !
About the same for me! I loved surfing and surf guitar when I started playing back in 1968! Still play. Have you ever heard of Bruce Lindquist? He's got a ton of surf tunes on TH-cam!
Top rendition of this fine melody and super guitar thanks sir.
its clear the andalusian cadence, never gets old...
Thank you so much for your Surf lessons! Love it!
Outstanding indeed.
Thanks for uploading this the tabs combined with your excellent playing and camera quality allowed me to nail this in 30 mins.
Bruce Lindquist has similar videos on TH-cam, tabs too. Lots of surf tunes!
Perfect tone
Great tune my man . Nokie had the talent and fingers . I was blessed with thumbs . My rendition sounded like muff riders .RIP Mr Edwards , thanks for excellent guitar work.
Thanks Ralph!
Man I liked this video so i can learn to play it later. Today's the day, I connected a delay pedal into a chorus pedal and into a multieffect pedal with a bunch of different filters and I got the sound. The song itself is super easy to learn and memorize. The hardest part is getting down the correct timing and play with the right rhythm.
Anyways im so glad I spent a few minutes to learn this one, it's really fun to play and relaxing. Its one of those songs that sound really complicated but is actual super simple and easy to play. I really appreciate the on screen notations. I just subscribed to the channel.
Thanks!!!
3am, Strat in hand learning this great classic. Thank you sir.
Check out Bruce Lindquist on TH-cam! He has a ton of surf tunes and tabs posted!
Só funciona com a jazzmaster!
Sounds weird but I'm just now realizing I love surf music. I only have an acoustic but I'm still gonna enjoy playing this. If I'm able haha.
Come here when I saw the guitar...stayed for the great playing!! Awesome!
Thanks!😊
Tom, love your surf cover/lessons. The efficiency of tabs superimposed with hand position is a truly amazing way of teaching. Please consider either "Rescue At Mavericks" or "Speedboat" by The Torquays.
Will take a listen. Thank you!
Lately I've watched a lot of your videos, all I can say is that you truely are a surf rock master. Well done mate !
epic like a movie sountrack surf almost spaghetti western movie score
There's something really catchy about surf guitar, nicely played Tom.
I'm all of a sudden thirsty for spiked lemonade. That sound is great.
Thank you Shawn!
That was EXCELLENT, man.
Thanks!
Thank you Tom, greatly appreciated.
Wow this is perfect
U are a hero
Nice! Thank you! I've tried so many times to get this song right, to me this is a precious gift. After decades of trying I am finally able to make more than 2 notes that sound right when I play. This video has already helped me more than I can say. Who knows, I may just be able to play half decently before I croak.
Glad it’s helping and thank you for watching!
Bro! Thanks so much for this. Between this and Los Straightjackets “tailspin” YOU taught me how to play this properly and I thank you so much for that. Great Job!
Written and Directed by
Quentin Tarantino
Actually this song was written by Nokie EdwardsTHE GUY FROM THE VENTURES
@@josephesposito3499 I was quoting a movie, where this song plays and title card says what it says
after one of the most edge of your seat moments in movie history in the Dinner, you get this badass/relaxing song
pas du tout! c'est the ventures!
@Panthera Metal Joseph is right. Surf Rider was written by Nokie Edwards in 1963. It was played in the film Pulp Fiction 1994 by The Lively Ones.
Thanks man, first of all is this absolutely amazing playing and a wonderful tasty tone with a guitar to fall in love with but it is also a superb lesson. Learned the song quicker this way than with a "proper" lesson or tutorial video.
Rock on mate!
Check out Bruce Lindquist on TH-cam for a ton of surf guitar lessons!
bravo TomConlon for the best lesson strategy I have ever seen.
Every time I leave the school with ma bois, this plays in my head.
This one of the coolest thing I found I love surf music. Thanks for all your tabs. Your sound is spot on too.
This one's fun to play and super easy to learn. I have a perfect pedal set up for this too.
How you getting that twang? My 25w fender amp sounds like shit...
Tonlama ve bend harika
I came as Vicent Vega and Jules Winfield left, I stayed for the awesome riff
Beautiful
Thanks!
I love the covers you are posting. The tabs are also fantastic as well. Keep up the good playing brother!
Thank you, that means a lot!
Well done mate! Perfect tone! And you also knew how to use the whammy bar properly! Keep rockin'! 👊😎
Thanks!
I know this is a lesson but wow the tone you have is so soothing
Thank you ♥️
Tom...Surf’s up again! 🎸 👍🏻
thanks youtube recomendation. That was amazing!!!
Trem is your friend when you play this.
Yeah I also say that your tone is perfect also, love that instrumental I first discovered it on the soundtrack while they were playing the credits at the end of the movie Pulp Fiction and had to find out who performed it, after that I recorded it and play it back often as well as "Rumble" by Link Ray & the Wraymen during the same movie's diner scene.
Thank you Carmine!
Once again Thomas you really have excelled yourself. Cheers.
Beautiful!
thank you!
Enjoyed the Holiday Inn set during happy hour on Thursday. Seem down to earth and drinks half price...
Great! Awesome! Superb!
Perfect.
Man, best cover of this song!
Thanks for tab. You do a great deal!
awesome, can't wait to learn this!
Sounds great!! And I dig the Classic Player Jazzmaster Special!! I have the same guitar but gold pickguard instead of the tortoiseshell (which is rad too).
Thank you so much Tom! Your tutorials are perfect! I began with this one a few weeks ago and I think its a great start for surf style guitar!
Your backing track downloads are of really good quality also! Thank you for all your guidance, in my personal guitar struggles ha!
Best wishes!
