The Ventures - Walk Don't Run

On Sunday, guitarist Bob Bogle of The Ventures passed away at the age of 75. The Ventures were said to be the band that launched a thousand bands. There instrumental, guitar driven rock was influential on many of today's artists, a fact that is corroborated by their 2008 induction into the rock and roll hall of fame. "Walk Don't Run" was their first major hit.

  1. I remember my dad playing Ventures records when I was a kid. Luckily he handed down some of their records to me a few years back.
