Here is the Astronauts version of Quiet Village that's been mentioned a few times. And here is a cover of Adventures in Paradise by the Playboys - an Aussie instro band that isn't the Atlantics. Here is a nice version of Bermuda by Merrell Fankhauser and the Impacts. Actually it's on other threads that Fankhauser comes up as an example of highly questionable taste in modern times with the "We Love Tikis" video. BUT he did have some good stuff with the Impacts in the last decade or so (like this version of Bermuda), and of course more so in the 60s with the original Impacts. Not sure if this derails the thread, but anyway hope these are of interest to someone. Thanks tikiyaki for the info about the digital copy from master on itunes. -Randy
