Now, when you say Beach Music down in the Carolinas, you're liable to discover that people think you're talking about the old R&B people down there, especially blacks,used to listen to when they were
at the beach. A used record store in Carolina east of the nountains will have a large section marked Beach Music whrer you have almost as goodb a chance of finding good-time good-feeling R&B and Some soul as in the R&B section (where all the sadder, hard core bluesier stuff still resides. Beach Music denotes a feeling down there rather than any water or sand content.

All for now,

I always wanted to do a hybrid of surf and bluegrass (but could neever hit those high notes):


(to "California Girls")


Well, The Eastern States are dandy So the Western people sa-a-ay'
They've got NY and Chicago and St. Louie by the way
They've got some hills in Minnesota where those rippling waters fa-a-all (oo-wooo-ooo)
no changes can
be taken boys
upon the Wabash Canon [bass part] ba-ball-ball-ball-ball
I wish you all could see them Kentucky Gur-r-rls! Pick it!

(The harmonies and instrumentation to be mixed in your own imaginations)
