The Surfaris-Hey Joe Where Are You Going?

I had to repost this because it wasn't complete before. Sorry about that...But yeah this was released on Decca in 1966. It's one of the groups more forgotten about singles because it was released after their hot period in the surf era. If you stumbled upon this out of interest for the Surfaris..make sure you subscribe and hear some of my other obscure rock n' roll!

"Obscure" kind of fits it. Singing and band-sound don't seem to match, really. The speed doesn't seem to fit, especially in the solo. The refrain goes into screaming, nearly punk-rockequeske and ahead of their time.
