Movie By Rich Lehrer and Paul Katz of Burnt Toast and Katz Eye Productions.. love this song by Jimmy Adams and his friends on it from the Longboard Habit DVD. I have used it in 8 movies because it is perfect. Someday I will put up all my visual interpretations.Jimmy Adams is amazing. He is playing guitar on it and John McKuen is singing ..I was there the night it was recorded.

  • Hey there Rich .. very nice work here !! Your assembled clip beautifully captures the pure joy, grace & elegance of classic-style old-time longboard surfing .. "soul surfing", as some have termed it. And a lovely song to match. This inter-se compilation of classy sound + accompanying, perfect-fit visuals is very, very pleasing to the senses. Many thanks !!

  • thanks....i appreciate

  • Where can you find this song? I've searched for months and have came up with nothing

  • hi another version came out by hanna /mckuen ...but the record label went out of business....this was recorded on a local ventura compilation album live at cafe voltaire....

  • the last scene with dolphins was great

  • i shot that with a long lens really far away and didnt see the dolphins till i got home....blew my mind

  • What a perfect vid. I've been surfing for 57 yrs now and still get out every day if it's worth it. This is what the sport is about, the afternoon glassoff,one more before heading home, reliving the day's rides with friends, the beauty of Mom Ocean. Thank you.

  • life can be so beautiful...

    seen with the eyes of your heart

    I love it!!!

see all

  • Good stuff Rich

  • Thanks Rich, something about this song with these pictures, is so evocative for this old goofy foot...the worst surfer Southern California ever produced. But my first board when I was 14 ....52 years ago was a Hobie Alter 9'6", I used to have little shorts that had a pocket for my wax. and all my girlfriends, Shelley, Ginny, Dorothy and Susan used to pile the boards in the Studebaker and drive to Doheny...Killer Dana..I can still feel the splinters in my feet from the jetty
