HONK - Pipeline Sequence(Gerry Lopez) from "Original Soundtrack Five Summer Stories"

[whozwat]

Wonder if any of my Los Alamitos HS class of 75 remember when Honk played a concert in our gym. Very cool. Thanks for the memories!

Spent hours just playing this album over & over, always put me in a good mood. Was even lucky enough to to see them once at the old Golden Bear in HB.

Love the 70's surf culture, and then Van Halen exploded

I remember them playing the south coast theater in Laguna. Upper deck seating and doobies galore!

Dana Hills class 'o 77

@larkdistillerywhisky Dude I was there on acid many times at midnight.

The greatest surf music from the greatest surf film ever made!

[gytpyker]

This is a great tune to play as a musician, as well!! I love it!

[lothartries]

...was there ever a better surfer movie out there and was there ever a better band than HONK for the surfers...don' t tell me the Beach Boys were.

Lothar.. a German Honk fan who spent many years in Newport / Laguna Beach, never learnt to surf , but became a fan and close friend of the Honk Band and I still get excited to listen to their music today.Tkx Beth and Steve ( and Bob the Hawk ) for the private concert for Lily in January..what would life be without your music and inspiration !!

Still have my Album and movie flyer. I grew up on Oahu, 10 paddles from Ala Moana Bowl. I was a Harbor Rat. My formative years were spent right there and on the North 'Shore at the Pupukea farm. 1969 to 79. I was so in Love with Michael Ho what a great surfer.

[halelea1]

played all the time on Oahu. Got us pumped heading to the North Shore. Since I was a Capistrano Boy made me glad to get the vibe from my Laguna brothers. Great era.!

Honk @ Dana Hills H.S. anyone? About 1975, I think. Great concert, great memories!

[surferjoe89406]

I've still got this one on vinyl......miss the days when it was pure..Trestles, Encinitas, Stairsteps....etc.

Wow what memories, a 15 year old kid sitting at a old movie theater in Hunt bch. Jaw hanging down in amazment watching Jerry Lozez get totally tubed at pipeline. Too bad surfing has evolved into a bunch of long boarders overcrowding the surf.

[rrrowan1]

@topswing57 What are you saying? Shortboards evolved from the longboard, the ORIGINAL surfing tool. I started on a 10'4" Hawk in 1968, and by the early to mid 70's had progressed to a 5'11" twin fin and by the mid to late 70's had settled into a nice fast 7'0" rounded pin that was so fast only a longboard could catch up with me on any wave. Then a few years ago I started bodyboarding and got hooked and have been bodyboarding since the early 90's. I still bodyboard, but I bought a 9'0" for SanO.

I remember seeing that picture on the side of a van. Not sure, but think it was an Our Gang van,

[WDux]

Agreed. The best surf band ever. What a talented group, and tied to the best surfing film ever made with the best sound track. Nothing even today comes close.

[mezcan1]

[greeenroooom]

@mezcan1 I know, true dat! I used to hang at Natural Progression Surf Shop in Santa Monica Canyon, and remember the guys calling into KMET to record the surf report.
