2.0 out of 5 stars Unbelievable!, June 5, 2001

This review is from: Songxpress: Classic Surf Guitar 1 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I can't believe this things has gotten ANY good reviews.

Okay, it's a decently made video, alright presentation, easy to pick up on the licks, the on-screen tablature is great...

BUT I never got past Misirlou (the first song on the tape) because... it's not Misirlou. The video instructs you to play the song in the wrong SCALE. If you listen to a Dick Dale recording of this song and then watch the tape, you will laugh yourself off your stool.

It's wrong. You can find a tab transcription book with this song and see for yourself that it's wrong.

[opening lick actual notes: bottom string 0,1,4,5,7,8,11,8,7 and on the video: 0,3,4,5,7,10,11,8]

Waste of ten bucks.

5.0 out of 5 stars had me playing cool surf tunes in no time., May 27, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Songxpress: Classic Surf Guitar 1 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I recently moved to Hollywood, Florida from the Cali. South Bay even though we don't have Pacific coast waves here this tape reminding me of riding the waves at Redondo. It was a blast learning Miserlou and Tequila. Pipeline is wiping me out, but Im sure I will get the best of it. Can't wait to check out other tapes hope theirs more like this.

5.0 out of 5 stars SongExpress Surf Video, March 3, 2000

This video is great! I am playing all the songs on the tape and it took less than a weekend to pick up the basic licks of each song. The tablature is on screen with the fingering so it makes learning some great surf music really easy.
