Ed, I didn't realize you were a fan.
The wagon doesn't leave the garage without 3 of their CDs in the rack.
You will have to bring a beer(s) and a chair and we can have a mini concern one night in the parking lot. -

Classic lineup of the Ventures in Japan in 1965 (left to right):
Don Wilson, Mel Taylor, Nokie Edwards, Bob Bogle
"The Ventures have released hundreds of albums beginning with Walk Don't Run (1960) and with over 110 million albums sold worldwide, the group remains the best selling instrumental rock group of all time.
38 Ventures albums (including a seasonal Christmas album) charted in the US, and six of fourteen chart singles made it into the Top 40, with three making it into the Top 10. Of their 38 chart albums, 34 of them occurred in the 1960s, and The Ventures rank as the 6th best pop album performer for that decade"
My favorite:

The Champs - "Tequila"
The Champs were a rock and roll band, most famous for their Latin-tinged instrumental "Tequila." Formed by studio executives at Gene Autry's Challenge Records to record a B-Side for the Dave Burgess (aka Dave Dupree) single, the intended throwaway track became more famous than its A-Side, "Train to Nowhere". "Tequila" went to No. 1 in just three weeks and the band became the first group to go to the top spot with an instrumental that was their first release The song was recorded at Gold Star Studios in 1958, and in 1959 won the Grammy Award for Best Rhythm & Blues Recording.
"Tequila!" was written and sung by the saxophone player Danny Flores, although he was credited as Chuck Rio because he was under contract to another record label at the time. Flores, who died in September 2006, was known as the "Godfather of Latino rock. Flores' "dirty sax" and his joyous hollering of "Tequila!" are the hallmarks of the song.Flores signed away the U.S. rights to the song but retained world-wide rights until his death.Comment

Re: I found 'em on U-Tube!
Johann Pachelbel's Canon, written in or around 1680, with a modern twist. At the 4:11 mark the guy playing it stops to check his place to a recording of it playing in the background. This guy has skills.
