Talk:The Ventures
From Academic Kids
I don't think The Ventures wrote the theme for Hawaii Five-0, I think Morton Steven did. They only performed it. But I'm not sure. --Kricke
- They featured the song on an album (if memory serves) of the same name. I think you are correct in saying they did not write it, but I'm not sure who did. Should be able to find out - check back later. --WCFrancis 04:06, 7 May 2005 (UTC)
- I'm pretty sure Morton Stevens wrote the Hawaii Five-0 theme, not the Ventures. See here: Imdb (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004022/), CD on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00006EXIL/qid%3D1118692968/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/102-9727554-1744916) and Hawaii Five-O Production Staff (http://www.bigbob.com/five-o/hdirect.html) for example. --Kricke, 22:03 13 June 2005 (CET)
[edit]
Things to add
- Relationship with Mosrite guitars - endorsed until 1969.
- Outsold Beatles in Japan in 1960's.
- First vinyl LP I ever bought was one of theirs. No, wait, that's neither notable nor verifiable.
