The kings of guitar instumentals, the Ventures. If you're like me and enjoy the rich ringing sounds of the Ventures you'll love playing each song note for note. Easy to read guitar tab, notes and chords are included. Play just like they do! I'd have a hard time comming up with better songs to accompny my father with his guitar. Everyone knows Ventures hits and loves to hear them played. There are several good articles reproduced from a guitar magazine, you'll learn more about the band. I had no idea! If you enjoy early pop/rock guitar, you'll love playing Ventures hits.

The following songs are in the book:
Apache
Beethoven Five-O
Bulldog
Eight Miles High
Flashback
Hang On Sloopy
Honky Tonk
Let's Go
(The) Lonely Surfer
Mr. Moto
Out of Limits

Tequila
Torquay

Also, each song names the Ventures CD album it came from.

I have always loved the Ventures for their style.
This is a terrific book, It has most of the best songs and is an easy guitar chord and tab format. When playing I remember what I was doing when each song was popular, terrific memories. I would highly reccomend this book to us old timers as well as younger musicians who are studying this era of music.
Buy it, It's worth it!

As a bedroom surfer guitarist, I'm always on the lookout for good and accurate tabs. By detailing each note of the recorded titles, this book captures the spirit and sound of the Ventures excactly.

You must purchase this book--a must have and a bargain at the price!
