Best known version was by The Ventures....The Southern California surf music scene spread across the pond and swept up Billy J and his band...

Liverpool surf! Excellent track.

Nice find Kenpo. I hope we get some video for you from the Mini-con Surf set.
Re: The Cruel Sea...Dakota Version
This version, the original, has always been my favourite.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

No kidding Peter...The Dakotas did this tune before the Ventures? Learn something new every day

Re: The Cruel Sea...Dakota Version
That is my memory. I believe it was written by the Dakota's Mike Maxfield .
