Hi, my name is Kurt Fröberg and I have played the guitar since I was 12. This channel is for the music I like and the videos I make either with my bands The Ryders, The Scarborough Band, The Lenny Clerwall Band, The Invaders or with other bands / musicians that I like.
Hey Kurt, great fun this tune. I like how you turned around that lick at 1:43 just the other way around at 1:47. Gives a nice tweak to it 😎 BTW, what is that closing chord? Sounds great. All the best, Michael
Hi Michael, yes it’s a fun tune to play even though I prefer the -61 live version which is faster. Thanks for your comments. The closing chord is a E9 😊 Best wishes Kurt
The Quests..a Singapore band wrote and recorded this tune...around 1966....living there myself then..I saw The Quests play this many times...!!!...Singapore was VERY different then...Cliff Richard came to do a concert...but was refused permission to perform...because the Government there said his HAIR was too long...!!!..Yes really...!!!!!
@@peteraustin370 Interesting comment, but I think the comment of tune is supposed to be on ”Shanty” and not on this Ventures tune…😊 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lYm0jdKRjeg.htmlsi=CsoAV0HmZC9gP71y
@leadryder Absolutely...!!!..Shanty was popular in Singapore..The Quests were regularly on TV..Often saw them at Singapore Swimming Club...They used Fender Dual Showman amps..Fender guitars AND the long forgotten Schaller Disk Echo which was a brilliant Echo chamber..!!..Dad bought me a Hofner 3pickup Verithin Christmas 1966..still play it today..a better rhythm guitar than any of my Fenders/Gibson etc ..its those Hofner Nova sonic pickups and comprehensive switches..!!..Cost £50 in English money..Fender Stratocaster was around £100.at that time..!!..Most shops had to display a sign..." Men with Long Hair will be served LAST.."...!!!!!!..Life in 60s Singapore was DIFFERENT...!!!!...Love your guitar playing....!!!..Keep Going...Always Watching...!!.Best Wishes from Plymouth UK...!!!!
