  as ridiculous and over the top as it was, it was hard to resist the manic primal-rock insanity of “surfin bird”–couldn’t get enough of it as it as it bolted onto wabc am radio’s daily rotation–(late ’63 ?) loved the vocals’ almost-out-of-control lurch into the chorus–“don’t you know about the bird…”–funny and exciting am pop.

  Same here! For a crazy set, play it back-to-back with “Papa-Oom-Mow-Mow” by the Rivingtons.

  How can anyone not like that song!
  Family Guy did a whole show revolving around that song!
