The Ventures are an American instrumental rock ring, formed in 1958 in Tacoma, Washington, past Don Wilson and Bob Bogle. The band, a quartet for most of its existence, helped to popularize the electric guitar in the United States and across the world during the 1960s.[1] While their popularity in the United States waned in the 1970s, the grouping remains especially revered in Nihon, where they tour regularly to this day.[2] The classic lineup of the band consisted of Wilson (rhythm guitar), Bogle (initially lead guitar, switched to bass), Nokie Edwards[3] (initially bass, switched to lead guitar), and Mel Taylor (drums).

Their first wide-release single, "Walk, Don't Run", brought international fame to the grouping, and is often cited as ane of the top songs ever recorded for guitar.[4] [five] [vi] [vii] In the 1960s and early 1970s, 38 of the ring'southward albums charted in the United states, ranking them equally the 6th best album chart performer during the 1960s,[viii] and the ring had 14 singles in the Billboard Hot 100.[nine] With over 100 one thousand thousand records sold,[2] the Ventures are the best-selling instrumental band of all time.[10] [1]

The Ventures have had an indelible touch on on the evolution of music worldwide. The band was amid the first to employ and popularize fuzz and flanging guitar effects, concept albums, and twelve-string guitars in rock music. Their instrumental virtuosity, innovation, and unique sound influenced many musicians and bands, earning the grouping the moniker "The Band that Launched a Thousand Bands".[11] Their recording of "Walk, Don't Run" was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame for its lasting impact,[12] and in 2008 the group was inducted into the Stone and Whorl Hall of Fame.[1]

History [edit]

Formation and ascension to fame [edit]

Don Wilson and Bob Bogle kickoff met in 1958, when Bogle was looking to buy a auto from a used car dealership in Seattle endemic by Wilson'due south begetter. Finding a common interest in guitars, the two decided to play together, while Wilson joined Bogle performing masonry work. They bought two used guitars in a pawn shop for well-nigh $10 each.[13] Initially calling themselves the Versatones, the duo played small-scale clubs, beer bars, and private parties throughout the Pacific Northwest. Wilson played rhythm guitar, Bogle lead. When they went to register the band name, they plant that it was already taken. Disappointed, they cast about for an appropriate name. Wilson's female parent suggested the proper name "The Ventures", upon which they somewhen agreed in 1959.[fourteen]

After watching Nokie Edwards play at a nightclub, they recruited him as bass player. Bogle owned a Chet Atkins LP, Howdy-Fi in Focus, on which he heard the song "Walk, Don't Run".[15] Soon, the group was in a recording studio playing the new song, with Bogle on lead, Wilson on rhythm, Edwards on bass, and Skip Moore on drums. They pressed a number of 45s, which they distributed to several record companies. Later, Skip Moore opted out of the group to piece of work at his family's gas station. When "Walk, Don't Run" was recorded, he too opted out of the royalties from the recording, taking $25 for the session instead. He later on sued to collect royalties just failed considering of his prior opt-out. "Walk, Don't Run" sold over 1 million copies, and was awarded a gilded disc by the RIAA.[16]

Needing a permanent drummer for the group after George T. Babbitt, Jr. dropped out considering he was not erstwhile enough to play night clubs and bars, they hired Howie Johnson and, in the midst of a fast-paced touring schedule, recorded an album to capitalize on the success of the single. (Babbitt went on to become a four-star general in the United States Air Strength (USAF) and on March 1, 1998, he played alive in uniform on drums with the band.)[17] The lineup of Bogle, Wilson, Edwards and Johnson remained intact until 1962.[fifteen] The grouping found early success with a cord of singles, but chop-chop became leaders in the album market. The Ventures were among the pioneers of concept albums (starting with 1961's The Colorful Ventures) where each song on several of their albums was chosen to fit a specific theme. Some of the Ventures' almost popular albums at the fourth dimension were a series of records of trip the light fantastic toe music. In the early 1960s "golden age of howdy-fi", with the novelty of stereo still in its experimental stages, the Ventures found their characteristic style of recording each musical instrument in either the extreme left or correct channel, with little (if any) cross-over, enhancing the stereo result to its fullest limits.

In 1961, Edwards, a talented guitarist in his own right, suggested that Bogle's atomic number 82 guitar abilities were being stretched, and that they were in essence wasting Edwards' talents by keeping him on bass. Bogle agreed, and rapidly learned the bass parts to all their tunes, allowing Edwards to have atomic number 82 guitar full-fourth dimension, although he had played pb previously on several tracks on their first studio sessions/albums. This move would prove vital in modernizing the band'due south sound, ensuring success in an always-irresolute market well into the late 1960s.

Archetype lineup [edit]

In the fall of 1957, Johnson had been injured in an auto crash, which caused irreversible spinal harm.[15] This forced him to play with a neckbrace at first. However, he was able to play without it soon afterwards joining the group. Johnson played on the commencement four LPs and recorded on about half of the tracks on the 5th LP (Twist with the Ventures/Dance!) and about half of their sixth LP (Twist With The Ventures Vol. 2/Embankment Party). He did not like spending and so much time away from his new family (his second marriage) by having to commute from Seattle to Los Angeles to tape, and because of this, he left the band.[15] Johnson continued to play locally in the Washington expanse with local groups until his expiry on May 5, 1988, at age 54.

The band in Japan in 1965: from left to right, Wilson, Taylor, Edwards, Bogle

At the time Johnson quit the Ventures, Bogle and Wilson already knew Mel Taylor, firm drummer at The Palomino in North Hollywood (the venue where they would play numerous shows during their resurgence in the 1980s). Taylor was known for a hard-hit fashion of drumming. The group invited him to some recording sessions, which led Taylor to become a permanent member of the Ventures.[15] The band continued to remain a abiding presence in the American music landscape during this fourth dimension: between 1962 and 1967, they released 22 albums, and all but ane reached the meridian 100 of the Billboard album charts (thirteen of which reached the top 40). They experienced more moderate success in the singles market, with 6 charting on the Billboard Hot 100. Their well-nigh successful single during this time was Walk Don't Run '64 (a re-arranged surf-style version of their 1960 breakout striking), which reached #eight.

During this time, the Ventures' popularity overseas began to increment significantly. In particular, the Japanese music market place embraced the Ventures' music later Bogle and Wilson toured the country in 1962. By the time they returned in 1964, this time equally a total band, their music became immensely popular in Nippon, and were greeted by thousands of fans at the drome.[2] Their 1965 single "Diamond Head" reached only #70 in the United States simply was a major hitting overseas, reaching #one in the Japanese and Hong Kong markets, and becoming the showtime 1000000-selling unmarried in Japan.[18] [19] The Ventures were responsible for a menses in Japanese music known as the eleki smash, where thousands of Japanese purchased electric guitars and many guitar-based bands started up.[20]

Resurgence and reject in the US [edit]

The combination of Edwards on lead guitar, Taylor on drums, Bogle on bass and Wilson on rhythm guitar remained unchanged until Edwards left the ring in 1968, to exist replaced by Gerry McGee (built-in Gerald James McGee in Eunice, Louisiana; November 17, 1937 – October 12, 2019),[21] son of the famous Cajun fiddle thespian Dennis McGee.[15] Edwards came back in 1973 and remained with them until 1984, although he has toured and gigged with them dozens of times in the subsequent years. Edwards' replacement in 1984 was, once once more, Gerry McGee. Mel Taylor left in 1972 (and was replaced past drummer Joe Barile)[fifteen] to pursue a solo career when the Ventures became a nostalgia act. His intentions were to concentrate on new material and the progressive side of music. He returned in 1979 and stayed with the Ventures until his death from cancer in 1996. When Mel Taylor got sick he was replaced by his son, Leon Taylor. (Original drummer Howie Johnson had died in 1988; Skip Moore, the drummer on "Walk, Don't Run" is also deceased.)

Later years [edit]

Their commercial fortunes in the United states declined sharply in the early 1970s due to changing musical trends. In the late 1970s and into the 1980s, a resurgence of interest in surf music led to some in the punk/new wave audience rediscovering the band. The Go-Go's wrote "Surfin' And Spyin'" and dedicated information technology to the Ventures. The Ventures recorded their own version and continue occasionally to perform the vocal. Their career again rejuvenated by Quentin Tarantino's utilize of the Lively Ones' version of Nokie Edwards' "Surf Rider" and several other classic surf songs in the soundtrack of the hit movie Lurid Fiction. The Ventures became one of the well-nigh popular groups worldwide thanks in large part to their instrumental approach—there were no language barriers to overcome. The Ventures are withal the most pop American rock group in Nippon, the world's second largest record market. I oft-quoted statistic is that the Ventures outsold the Beatles ii-to-ane in Nippon.[2] They produced dozens of albums exclusively for the Japanese and European markets, and accept regularly toured Japan from the 1960s through to the present. According to a January 1966 Billboard Magazine article, the Ventures had five of 1965's top x singles in Nippon.

The Ventures today [edit]

On March 10, 2008, the Ventures were inducted into the Stone and Ringlet Hall of Fame with John Fogerty equally their presenter. In attendance were original members Don Wilson and Nokie Edwards, tardily 1960s fellow member John Durrill, electric current guitarist Bob Spalding, and current drummer Leon Taylor, son of Mel Taylor who, along with Mel Taylor'southward widow, Fiona, accepted on behalf of the Ventures' tardily drummer. Bob Bogle and Gerry McGee were unable to nourish the ceremony. Fiona Taylor gave special mention to her married man's predecessor drummers Skip Moore and Howie Johnson. The Ventures performed their biggest hits, "Walk, Don't Run" and "Hawaii Five-O", augmented on the latter past Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame musical manager Paul Shaffer and his ring.

Bob Bogle lived in Vancouver, Washington, for years and died there on June 14, 2009, of non-Hodgkin lymphoma; he was 75.[22]

Nokie Edwards died on March 12, 2018, due to complications after hip surgery. He was 82.[23]

Gerry McGee died on Oct 12, 2019, after collapsing onstage four days before in Japan. He was 81.[21] [24]

Don Wilson continued to record with the ring, only retired from touring at the end of 2015. He died on January 22, 2022, at the age of 88.[25]

Guitars [edit]

During their first years (1958–1961), the Ventures played Fender guitars (a Jazzmaster, a Stratocaster and a Precision Bass) for both their live performances and their recording sessions. These instruments are prominently visible on the covers of two early albums: The Ventures and The Colorful Ventures. From 1962 to 1963 they used two Jazzmasters with a Precision Bass, shown on the album embrace of "Bobby Vee meets The Ventures". Then in early 1963, California guitar manufacturer Mosrite re-branded their uniquely styled, futuristic-looking Mark 1 electric guitar model for the Ventures by applying decals that stated "The Ventures Model" on the headstock. The band adopted these guitars (which included a bass model) and first used them on The Ventures in Space (1963), one of their most influential albums because of the unique, otherworldly guitar sounds it contained. From 1963 through 1968, a statement on their anthology covers announced that the Ventures used Mosrite guitars "exclusively" (the Ventures and designer Semie Moseley were partners in the distribution of these instruments). Afterward the expiration of their contract with Moseley, the Ventures returned to playing mainly Fender guitars. Only rarely have they used Mosrite guitars since that contract concluded.

In the mid-1990s, Fender issued a limited edition Ventures Signature Series of guitars consisting of a Jazzmaster, a Stratocaster, and a Fender Jazz Bass, all with specifications determined past the ring.

Aria Guitars and Wilson Brothers Guitars have subsequently issued Ventures Signature Model instruments. The Wilson Brothers guitar, in particular, is closely modeled physically on the original Mosrite design.

Legacy [edit]

The Ventures enjoyed their greatest popularity and success in the US and Japan in the 1960s, merely they continue to perform and record. With over 110 million albums sold worldwide, the group remains the best selling instrumental rock group of all fourth dimension. Thirty-eight Ventures albums (including a seasonal Christmas album) charted in the The states, and six of fourteen nautical chart singles made information technology into the Elevation forty, with three making it into the Meridian 10. Of their 38 chart albums, 34 of them occurred in the 1960s, and the Ventures rank equally the 6th best pop album performer for that decade, according to "Joel Whitburn's Peak Popular Albums".

Among their achievements in America, in 1963 the Ventures had 5 LPs in the Billboard Top 100 of the albums chart at the aforementioned time. Additionally, they released a series of instructional LPs entitled Play Guitar with the Ventures and Play Electric Bass with the Ventures. Iv LPs were released in this series, the first of which reached the Billboard Top 100 Album Chart—an achievement previously unheard of for an instructional LP. In a novelty achievement, the Ventures were the offset act to identify 2 dissimilar versions of the same song in the Pinnacle ten, those being "Walk, Don't Run" (#2) and "Walk, Don't Run '64" (#eight).

The Ventures were amid the first stone acts able to sell albums based on a manner and sound without needing hit singles on the albums. These albums are as well some of the primeval examples of the concept album in rock music. Many of the Ventures' albums, starting with Colorful Ventures in 1961, were organized according to a primal theme.[26]

While they predated the advent of the terms surf guitar and surf stone, and they do non consider themselves a surf rock grouping, they were a major edifice block of surf music, if not the commencement to play the style. Guitar Player, in an commodity titled "20 Essential Rock Albums", cited elements of their 1960 Walk, Don't Run anthology which presaged the coming surf trend.

The theme music of the goggle box show Hawaii 5-O continues to be pop.[27] The tune was composed past Morton Stevens, who also composed numerous episode scores. The theme was recorded by the Ventures, whose version reached No. iv on the Billboard Hot 100 pop chart.[28] Because of the tempo of the music, the theme gained popularity in the Britain with followers of Northern soul and was popular on dance floors in the 1970s.[29]

The Encyclopædia Britannica states that the Ventures "served as a paradigm for guitar-based stone groups."

Special furnishings [edit]

The Ventures pioneered the use of special effects on such songs equally "The 2000 Pound Bee", recorded in tardily 1962, in which lead guitarist Nokie Edwards employed a fuzz pedal. Edwards' employ of "fuzz tone" predated the "Rex of Fuzz Guitar", Davie Allan of The Arrows, by at least 3 years. In addition, Edwards was among the first to utilise the twelve-string guitar in rock. The 1964 The Ventures In Space album was a primer in the utilize of special guitar effects, and made pioneering use of 'reverse-tracking'. The Ventures In Space, considering of its ethereal space-like furnishings, was accounted an influence on the later 1960s San Francisco psychedelic generation, as well as beingness cited as a favorite past Keith Moon of the Who.[30]

The ring's cover of the Tornados' "Telstar" (released in January 1963) featured ane of the first instances of flanging on a pop record. The song "Silverish Bells" on The Ventures' Christmas Anthology, released in Nov 1965, has one of the beginning recorded uses of a talk box every bit a musical event, voiced past Ruby-red Rhodes.[31]

Influences [edit]

The Ventures have had an influence on many musicians, both professional and amateur.[32] [33] [34] Their instructional album, Play Guitar with the Ventures, was the beginning such record to chart on the Billboard Top LPs list, peaking at No. 96, and taught thousands of budding guitarists how to play the guitar. George Harrison stated in a Guitar Player interview that he preferred the American guitar sound of the Ventures to British contemporaries. When asked to name the well-nigh influential rock guitar solos, Joe Walsh said he would take to include the entire vocal "Walk, Don't Run" considering it changed so many guitar players' lives. John Fogerty, during his introduction of the Ventures at their Hall of Fame consecration, said that it "kicked open up a whole movement in rock and roll... The sound of it became 'surf music' and the audacity of it empowered guitarists everywhere." Stephen Stills told Ventures guitarist Don Wilson that he learned to play on Ventures records. Jeff Baxter[35] [36] and Factor Simmons were early members of the Ventures Fan Club.[37] Carl Wilson called the Ventures a major influence on his early on guitar playing, stating that the Beach Boys had learned to play all of their songs by ear.[38]
