John O,

I don't hate the Beach Boys, and Jan and Dean,
but to me there is a pretty evident difference between the vocal and instro,
Surf and Hot rod musics.

Some instro surf can be Exotic,
and most Vocal surf, is more R&B orientated.
R&B music doesn't make me want to drift away and forget about lifes troubles.

That being said,
I would much rather listen to BB's or J&D in a tiki bar,
than Rap, Hip Hop, or Techno music.
