Title: Traditional compositions from Surfer Girl album
Post by: PickupExcitations on March 25, 2020, 06:58:00 AM
There were two instrumentals in the album Surfer Girl: The Rocking Surfer and Boogie Woogie, which were all composed by 'tradititional'. So what's the history about the original compositions? What's the names of these? Did any other musicians ever record these tunes? etc...

THE ROCKING SURFER was derived from THE GOOD HUMOR MAN, which in turn is based on the traditional STODOLA PUMPA.

BOOGIE WOODIE is based on THE FLIGHT OF THE BUMBLEBEE by classical composer Rimsky-Korsakov.
