As always, a fantastic lesson! Now, as a Spaniard, perhaps I should mention that the tune was written by the Spanish musician Ernesto Lecuona (1896-1963), as part of his Andalusian Suite. Lecuona was known as the "Cuban Gershwin". Wait a minute, didn't I say he was Spanish? Is it not true that he was Cuban by birth? Well, technically you could say he was both... At the time Lecuona was born, Cuba was still a province of Spain. And Lecuona later in life relocated to Spain, where he died a year before the Trashmen recorded their surf version.

Please don't stop with the Surf music. It makes my day!

It is precisely songs like these that made me begin my journey of learning how to play guitar. 60 years later, still playing and learning. Chantays, Verntures, Beach Boys, Duane Eddy.

Fabulous lesson, but you forgot possibly the most important historical note about Malagueña: it was the first song that Keith Richards learn to play on guitar. His grandfather taught it to him when he was a lad and he would play it throughout his life talismanically at important moments. He played it for his mother on her deathbed. He talks about Malagueña so lovingly in his autobiography, Life, which is a particularly fantastic listen in audiobook form. I’m brushing up on all my Stones literature in advance of seeing them in a couple weeks here in LA. The history of The Stones is a fantastic prism through which to witness the second half of the last century and the first quarter of this one. They truly signed that contract at the crossroads.

One of the few channels doing surf music, thank you 🙏

We should listen to more surf rock. Let's go

Adrian , you have impeccable taste in music ,

Very high level. One of the all time classics that I listen to twice per month since about 1965. You are a smooothy dude!

Awesome. I also love the Trashwomen's version which is messier and all dialed up to 11.

Anyone can play guitar but not many can play that well. 👍👍👍👍

This was one of Roy Clark's signature songs he would play on the USA TV show Hee-Haw and once as a guest on The Odd Couple. I like this surf rendition, great to see you. You are the Surf Master on that Jazz Master!

You’re my hero of the day ! I spent so much time playing tunes from that album ! Dead Kennedys, John McGeoch and now the Trashmen, you’re the best !

A thousand up votes. Surfin bird=Full Metal Jacket.

One of your absolute best - exquisite playing and tone!! More surf, please.

If someone were to argue that surf rock is the most fun guitar music to play, I might not argue back. At least not forcefully.

Perfect timing! I was just thinking - I need to learn this version!

Very nice. I especially like the Bambi Molesters' live version (on A night in Zagreb).

Fantastic job. Sounds killer.

Adrian is the best part of my week

Happy Friday! I will be learning this song over the weekend! Love these videos!

Sounds so much better than the original recording.

Yes! Thanks for putting this lesson together. Always found this tune tricky.

Adrian, thanks for this tune. For me, the most fun genres are Surf and Rockabilly. This surf tune is great.

2:00 Yeah baby

This is why I love your channel. Cheers!

Looks like the Surfy Bear comes first in the chain, before the overdrive. Really interesting for nailing that surf sound. Brilliant vid ! Thanks for sharing.

Brilliant as always.

Great Surf tone. Thank you for the lesson.

Excellent lesson! Thanks very much Adrian!

“ Happy Almalaguena Day, Jerome” 😂

Thats an awesome tone.

Fantastic, my man...kudos !

Thanks Adrian, I’m relatively new to Guitar (2,5years). Got a Jazzmaster and a surfybear as well and it is so much fun. Thank you for your Videos

Its a little easier than Miserlou!

Wonderful playing!

Wow !!! That sounds awesome!!🔥🔥👍 I have to learn that !

So soothing. Pure class! Thanks, Adrian. Some Charlie Mageira would be nice. He was a highly overlooked player

Thanks!

Magnificent. More surf please x

Awesome, Adrian! Thanks.

Fantastic work

Brilliant!! Thanks Adrian..

Marvelous! Well played! :)

Awesome....🏄‍♂🎸🌊👋👍

hola Adrián me encanta lo que enseñas con la guitarra, quisiera saber donde encuentro la pista de esta canción y poder practicar, de antemano muchas gracias, saludos

Love Surf, Too few play it these days.

Fantastic. Sounds great!

Gob smackingly good

As usual, you really nailed this one. You've got a great touch and feel. Are there tabs for this lesson? Thanks!

Great Tutorial! Love your lessons! As a suggestion consider delving into some John Martyn classics for example: Dancing - One World.

Awesome choice. Also, check out Roy Clark's version. It's killer.

I almost forgot, you pronounced it correctly the first time, Adrian (the "u" is silent after "g" unless there is an "umlaut" on top of it).

Thank you!

Thank you...❤

Love this! On Spanish influenced 60s classics how about a lesson on Love's Alone Again Or?

Hi Ade. Do you reckon you could do a ‘how to play to a backing track’ tutorial? I’ve only ever really noodled or played to a song. I know the chords/scales etc, but the one time I jammed with a band I got lost and couldn’t find where to place my playing, I think this would help me.

So cool hodaddy, rad and bitchen like far out. Whereja git those geetars? I'm grabbin' my board and hitting the waves. . Hank Marvin is jealous.

Awesome!👍

A little too challenging for me. Maybe a future lesson on Surfing Bird? Oom papa ooma mau mau!

Cheers Adrian, 😊. Like deployed 👍 😎🎙🏎✅️

oooh nice :) luck has it I just got myself a surfy bear :)

7:29. 12:07

Good pronunciation of "malagueña"! (the first two times; the "u" is silent) :-)

Epic!

Do you have the sheet music for this….?.

Ask Peter Griffin about Surfin' Bird

:) :) :) 👍🏼

Ma La Hayn Yuh, not Mole Uh Gay Nuh ...or whatever you said. Malagueña Salerosa - also known as La Malagueña - is a well-known Son Huasteco or Huapango song from Mexico, which has been covered more than 200 times by recording artists. It's a Mexican Standard. Not Surf Rock.

Surf music not my favourite I played a lot in the 60-70s mainly Beach Boys but is dated these days.
