Nothing original on this page… other than my interpretations of these familiar tunes! This is where I've culled out many of the "cover tunes" from every part of my catalog. Hope I touch on some of your better memories…

What a Friend We Have in Jesus
Paul Johnson
I have enjoyed playing this familiar tune over the years in the fingerpicking style pioneered by Mississippi John Hurt.
Take These Hands
'62  
Ramrod
The Belairs
Yet another of the many Duane Eddy tunes that we loved to play.
Volcanic Action
'65  
Susie Q
Everpresent Fullness
We rocked the Dale Hawkins classic before Credence did... that´s Jimmy Roberts (Belairs) doing the Little Richard imitation on the ivories.
Everpresent Fullness
'00  
Scratchy
The Duo-tones
Travis Wammack had a hit with his nutty rip-off of "Comin´ Home Baby" in ´65; Gil and I start off slow with a bit of the original, then we shift right into high gear.
Surf Music Unplugged
'85  
Runaway
Paul Johnson
The Del Shannon classic from ´61 gets my solo-multritrack treatment...
Paul Johnson, Guitar
'94  
The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting)
The Hepcats
Here´s my take on the old Mel Torme song that was such a big hit for Nat King Cole.
Christmas With the Hepcats
'82  
Wild Goose
The Packards
I first recorded this with the Galaxies in ´64... it´s my surfed-up version of Frankie Laine´s early ´50s hit...
The Packards / Beach City Bop
'05  
Summertime Blues/Somethin´ Else
The Surfaris
Jim Fuller, the Surfaris´ original lead guitarist, sings a medley of these great old Eddie Cochran songs
