The soundtrack is definitely post-"Hard Day's Night," as the whole idea of Surf Instrumental was changing/fading rapidly. Besides all of that, I have over thirty independant Surf films from 1950 to about 1971, and you randomly see Tikis ALL THE TIME! Also, the short educational film, "One Man's Challenge" (1962) has Surf band the Raindrops on stage in Asuza with a Tiki next to the drummer... that's one of the best examples of Tiki mixed with Surf culture that I've ever seen.
