See if you can trace a line from this song to the TomorrowMen. —Danny Snyder Playing keys and guitar with Combo Tezeta Formerly a guitarist in The TomorrowMen and Meshugga Beach Party Latest surf project - Now That's What I Call SURF |

I can't put my finger on any one specific TomorrowMen song at the moment, but that Lester Leaps In tune has a sunny melody and bounce that reminds me of a few T'Men songs. Frankie & the Pool Boys too. New Democracy (T'Men), All Summer in a Day(T'Men), Curse You Fred Haines(T'Men), Skinny Dippin'(F&tPB), Sundial Suite(F&tPB), Monkey Pod(F&tPB) to name a few. There's probably something more direct that I'm just not thinking of... —Fady El Mirage @ ReverbNation |

Here is one for Ralf; ANTHRAX! Although I like the Johnny Thunders version better (some nice punkrock royalty in this historical & outatune vid, sorry for the violence at the beginning)... —www.alohasluts.com Last edited: Jan 25, 2016 02:38:54 |

Like Danny Snyder, i was PROFOUNDLY affected by The Monochrome Set's tunes in the early 80s...this was their absolute surf-iest number, so good you can barely believe that they were not a surf band whatsoever ... Last edited: Jan 25, 2016 19:02:37 |

I always liked this song prior to even knowing about Surf Music at all. I think it's a very Surf inspired song, though their fans don't seem to think so! —Jeremy |

. I should have noted that was a rhetorical question. There's no specific song, I was just stating that the Monochrome Set had a profound influence on me. 
It was used in the opening credits for the 1969 movie "Medium Cool".
