BEST VERSION.YEA BABY LOVE THE VENTURES.

MUITO BOM!
VERY GOOD!

This is most definitely the Ventures after Nokie decided to quit for awhile. It shows a very different side of Bob Bogle. My old bass player bought this on vinyl and didn't like it, gave it to me. Geat blues, lots more guts than when they first recorded the tune.

Don't care if its them or not,getting Harvey and Jackie together in this number makes it worthwhile no matter whose group name appears on the label.
-
OMG...I never heard this before. Incredible...stands up to the original!
-
@mosrite60 Oh, yes they did. Their "Pink Panther" cover was one example. I'm sure it was a "studio" sax man that they brought in and not one of themselves doubling.
-
@mosrite60 Oh, yes they did. They brought in a studio sax man for their "Pink Panther" cover and, if I remember correctly for others as well.
-
@whitt702 Really? You didn't like "Blue Velvet"? I thought it was great. One of my favorites.
Oh well, at least we both like the Ventures.

@bluesmobile1 I remember this song from when I was a kid. My mom and dad had it on an eight-track by the ventures. I also had it on a 45. I had to play one side and flip it over to hear the other half of the song and learned to play it from that record. I asked my mom who the artist was and she said who I was thinking it was - Bill Doggett.

@iditarod9 ...says", make that "Video" instead of "Viseo"..!

Anybody know which version of Honky Tonk was played in the awful movie, "Blue Velvet" with Lyle McClaglin, Laura Dern and Isabella Rossilina. Dennis Hopper was terrible. Never liked him since in anything.

@whitt702 That was the original Honky Tonk Part 1 by Bill Doggett

Sorry but this definetly is NOT the Ventures. Some copy cat scam artists. The Ventures have never used a sax in any album.

@mosrite60 Sorry, but you are definitely wrong. They had a sax in at least 2 albums.

Is that the original 1972 UA pressing, or the 1978 Pickwick remaster?
Either way, the version of "Guitar Boogie Shuffle" on this LP blows away all other versions I've heard, including Arthur Smith's original.
(I've had this on vinyl for ages, and I've always wondered why it said "Ooh-Poo-Pa-Doo" on the cover when they didn't actually play that song on the record...)

Yes, this is the original pressing.
