Swingin' jazz instrumental.
We all know the Kingsmen's hit single, but they stole the tune and changed the lyrics. It's actually "Big boy Pete" by Don & Dewey, recorded in 1959. I have no idea who recorded this great instrumental version.
A honky tonk instrumental called Honky Tonk, originally recorded in 1956 by Bill Doggett and covered thousands of times.
What a great instrumental version of the Zombies' 1964 hit single.
Originally a Blue Note recording by Lee Morgan from 1963 and the blueprint for Buddy Rich's version of Sonny Bono's "The beat goes on".
Another instrumental version by a completely unknown outfit. It's hard not to move when listening to these sounds.
No, not the same version to be found on vol 177, which is to dance the frug. This is a jerk. Also a terrific instrumental version.
Good old C&W tune, often played with a banjo, gets a mid-60s treatment by a beat band with horns.
This evergreen was originally performed by Johnny Johnson in the movie "Star Spangled Rhythm" in 1942. Also Marilyn Monroe sang it in the 1956 movie "Bus stop". Who this is… I really don't know, but I like their rendition.
I love each and every version of "Watermelon man", the best song Herbie Hancock has ever written. He wrote it in 1962. This groovy instrumental version is one of the best I know.
Fast R&B version of The Isley Brothers' first hit from 1959. Including saxophone and organ.
Of course the original was recorded by Sandy Nelson himself. This version, however, is wilder.
One of the million Louie Louie versions, this is a great haunting instrumental.
Oh yes, do the swim with me and enjoy these "Sticks and stones" instrumental version.
And here's another one. Also an instrumental, but with a different vibe, closer to the original.
Joe Jones was the first to record this classic, in 1961. Two years later The Rivieras scored a massive hit. This is a fine instrumental version with a leading organ.
