Wipe Out

"Wipe Out" is a classic instrumental surf rock song that was recorded by The Surfaris in 1963. The song is known for its energetic drum solo intro, played by Ron Wilson, which has become one of the most recognizable drum beats in music history. It reached the number 2 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart that year and has since become a timeless surf rock anthem. Interestingly, the song was initially just a B-side to another single, but its catchy rhythm and infectious melody quickly caught on with audiences, propelling it to mainstream success. Over the years, "Wipe Out" has been featured in numerous films, commercials, and TV shows, solidifying its place as one of the most iconic surf rock songs ever produced.
