Hawaii Five-O; The Ventures

I may have posted this record before - but what they hey - it's worth it.  Hawaii Five-O, The Ventures.  For a cold, snowy day - this does not look too bad.  I've watched the new Hawaii Five-O show on TV and like it.  The NFL Pro Bowl was just played there too again recently.  According to a youtube comment, the old TV show's theme was NOT the Ventures version.  It's an excellent, highly orchestrated cover version.  The original theme song was composed by Morton Stevens, and released an album with a full vesion on it. He was also the series compser (backgroud music).  The Ventures version was never featured on the show, but was the bigger pop hit.  Click on this post's title for  view and listen of the Ventures doing it - with two hot drummers.
