My rendition of Pipeline

Here is a surf guitar version I did of the classic song "Pipeline".
I always felt that this song should be done at a faster tempo than it was usually recorded, so here it was I thought it should sound like:

All feedback/criticism appreciated.

I love it.
Cool old sound and groovy playing.

When this song gets stuck in my head, it's played at the tempo you played it in, not the orignal slower tempo. So I think this version sounds great!

Thanks for sharing!

Thats way cool dude. I love it

Thanks everyone! It's funny you should say that Tiki Flange, because it was the same with me, I would hear the song in my head at a fast tempo, and when I would play the record (I have 5 or 6 versions from different artists), it always sounded like the record was playing at a slower speed. I spent a good deal of time recording a version of this at a slightly faster speed then the original, but it still didn't sound quite right so, even though I had a lot of time into it already, I started over at this tempo. I never understood why nobody else did it faster (at least that I am aware of) because it's a great song and usually surf instrumentals have a lot of energy.

There's a fast version of Pipeline by Agent Orange on the compliation 'Hang 11 - Mutant Surf Punks'. Great track, great album.
