Thanks Barb!
Whoa! I... I think I'm having a thought. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a thought. Now I'm having a plan. Now I'm having a wiggins.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I Only Want to Be With You- Shelby Lynne (has a wicked nice lounge feel)
I'm curious about this version, because I *love* this song and firmly believe that nothing beats Dusty.

I'm still playing around with trying to get an evokes California/lounge/beach/sixties soundtrack going.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Barb, "Pipeline" by the Chantays may have the deadliest bass line ever. And a surf music set doesn't really feel complete without something by Jan and Dean, but I can't think of anything that really fits -- maybe "Dead Man's Curve."
And I mention "Beach Baby" by First Class not so much because it fits with the rest of your list, but because it's a great '70s surf sound record that deserves to be remembered. And it isn't.

Tep, can you play MP4s?

Pretty much the theme of the song. "Beach baby, beach baby / give me your hand / give me something that I can remember..."

Oooh-- "Pipeline!" Definitely works. I'm trying to stay away from a super uptempo surf feel here, but at the same time, some Jan and Dean does seem called for, doesn't it?

Heh-- just dug up the Ramsey Lewis version of "Hang On, Sloopy" although after watching the OSU/Texas game the other night, I'm not sure I'm ready to hear it again.
ETA: Teppy, the Shelby version is up at brawk.
You know I'm with you on the Dusty love, so I approached this with extreme skepticism, but I think the reason it works is because it's so different.
