Rockin Fig Surf Music from KROQ Radio?

I listen to KROQ 106.7 here in LA and Rockin Fig does the surf report every weekday @ 7:30. Not the background song that he plays now but before, I was wondering who the song was. I think it is better then the one he has now as far as surf music goes. I'm not into surf music but that one did catch my liking. I heard it was from The Shadows?

I'd suggest you write them, It's unlikely that either Kevin or Bean will answer, but they have people who look at their email and answer the ones that they can. Make the subject line compelling so you get their attention. Maybe:





Please ID Rockin' Fig's theme music for me, Big Bux on the line.





Or something like that. It never hurts to butter them up.

Good luck from a guy named duh
Reply:I thought it was Walk Don't Run. Report It

Reply:The Shadows were an English band fronted by guitarist Hank Marvin that backed up a pop star who's name I forget at the moment. They did instrumentals mostly, so it could be them.





Incidentally, I used to produce a show for a KROQ jock named Shadoe Stevens in the station's early days. Shadoe and I teamed up again at KMET in the mid 70's.
