    At the time the Chantays and the Welk band were under contract with Dot Records. Although the Welk group was known for its traditional music on the show, featuring the Chantays may have been a way to bring in younger tv viewers. "Pipeline" has become an all-time classic surf instrumental.

    If you like or are learning to like surf tunes, look up "Dick Dale and the Deltones". Dick is credited as being the first lead guitarist to do the "fret board pull" (that cool sound of decending notes). I met the man a couple of times when he lived in Newport Beach. Great guy, very talented, the world got a little dimmer when he passed.

    They performed several times at The Rendezvous Ballroom in Balboa, CA. They had chops and could really play. The set lasted 2 hours and featured some great arrangements. For their closer, the sound man requested them to do "Pipeline" as a shuffle, and they did it, no sweat. I thought they were great musicians, and they influenced those of us just beginning to learn music. craig buhler, sax, Honk Band

    The Rendezvous! Don’t forget Dick Dale and also the Righteous Brothers! In 1961 I bought my first car from Dale’s drummer. He had gotten drafted. It was a “54 Ford Victoria. Great first car. My friends and I had more than one encounter with the Brothers at the snack bar. Great memories! Dale drove a ’61 Cadillac Coupe De Ville, black with chrome reverse rims. First time we ever saw a luxury car with custom wheels! He lived about a mile from my house in Costa Mesa at the time. Several of my buddies’ parents were native South Coasters and had stories of the Rendesvouse from the ‘40s.

If you're familiar with Newport Beach, then you no doubt know where Mr. Dale lived for so many years, last house facing the channel as you go to the wedge. Dick was always a master in my eyes. Nothing was better then him just grabbing a guitar and start solo playing. I got to jam with him once, I played drums (was a local band Costa Mesa, Newport back in the late 80's early 90's Darren and the O'Learys). And the Rendezvous Cafe (lol), and dont forget the Golden Bear in H.B.

You can tell half of the band is taking it in but look closely and some of them are grooving a bit or tapping their hands or lightly bopping their heads. The last year of "innocence" after 1964 the world got alot more grittier and rebellious. Oh if they only knew what the rest of the decade would sound like in music haha!

    We all can play that intro, but none like Brian Carman. His glissandos were rather unique. I'm sure none of those orchestra musicians wrote such an everlasting hit as Pipeline. Heads off to Chantays !!

    On this day in 1963 {May 18th} the Chantay's performed "Pipeline" on the ABC-TV Saturday-evening program 'The Lawrence Welk Show'... At the time "Pipeline" was at position #6 on Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart, two weeks earlier it had peaked at #4 {for 2 weeks} and it spent sixteen weeks on the Top 100... "Pipeline" was the the California band's only Top 100 record... And on the day of their 'Welk' appearance "Pipeline' peaked at #11 {for 1 week} on Billboard's Hot R&B Singles chart... "Pipeline" was track one of side one on the group's album of the same name, one month later on June 30th, 1963 the album peaked at #26 {for 1 week} on Billboard's Top 150 Albums chart... Note: This is just an assumption, but could it be that Mr. Welk invited the group to be on his show because their were both Dot Records' label mates??? In addition, later in 1963 Lawrence Welk released an album titled 'Scarlett O'Hara', on September 29th, 1963 it peaked at #34 on the Top 150 Albums chart, and track six on side one of the album was Mr. Welk's covered version of "Pipeline" {and of course it's available on You Tube}... And two days before the Chantay's appearance on the show, Mr. Welk celebrated his 60th birthday...

    I think that's an excellent observation, that they were on the same label. It would make total sense to get some TV exposure for the Chantays by having them on the Welk show. Same with having Welk cover each and every one of their hit.

    Welk hated rock music so this is really a rare moment. He also wouldn't allow anyone to do anything live because he was so afraid of mistakes (the Lennon sisters complained about this later). Check out when the Lennon Sisters actually sing "the Watusi" on Welk (another rare occurrence): he has them all covered up in these gigantic sweaters. He really was uptight.

    Lawrence Welk was a Dot Records artist in the early 1960's... the Chantays were also. I think there must have been some real "arm-twisting" to get Mr. Welk's approval to allow the Chantays to perform on his show. Great clip... wish they were playing "live."

    Welk did complain of facing pressures from ABC to be more hip (allegedly that's what led to the infamous performance of "One Toke Over the Line" several years later) and you can tell he's uncomfortable introducing these kids. They handled it as well as anyone could ask of them.

    I remember seeing this on TV in the ‘60s The song came out in 1962 or ‘63, and that was when I started playing guitar (‘62-I was 12. I tried to work out Pipeline on my nylon-string acoustic guitar-it didn’t sound right on the acoustic, and I wasn’t using a pick yet, so the tremolo-picked glissando didn’t sound good; I was doing it with my index fingernail, up and down as fast as I could get it. I finally got it to where I could play it at the right tempo. A couple of years later I got an electric guitar and started using a pick, but that glissando was harder for me with the pick! 60 years later I still can’t pick that glissando up to speed! On the occasions when I have to play that song, I use the second finger for the glissando. It still works, but I don’t get the same attack that I would playing it with a pick, and I use pick and fingers for virtually everything else. I was a (mostly) working pro for 55 years, so it didn’t really cause me any trouble. Lucky for me I’m not a mandolin player!

    Dot Record obtained "Pipeline" by the Chantays (spelled "Chantay's" on the label) and released it nationally as Dot 16440. It rode the wave to #4, prompting Dot to re-release the Chantays' Downey 1002 album as Dot DLP-3516/25516. The Chantays were from Santa Ana, California, and included Bob Spickard on lead guitar, Brian Carmen on rhythm guitar, Rob Marshall on piano, Warren Walters on bass, and drummer Bob Welch. Spickard and Carmen had originally titled the song "44 Magnum," but renamed it after seeing a surfing film in 1962. After Dot obtained the single, they put on a PR press, and arranged for the group to appear on the Lawrence Welk television show. In 1966, the song became popular again, making top-10 in some cities like Chicago. Dot issued a second album by the Chantays that year called Two Sides of the Chantays, Dot DLP-3771/25771, which featured one instrumental side and one vocal side.

    You have to give Lawrence Welk credit for trying a rock 'n roll band on his show. Mr. Welk was a Swing Man & could have had animosity to Rockers for steering the kids away from Swing & Big Band music ( In the Mid-50s U.S. - Early 60s U.K. ). He could recognize good musicians regardless of musical genre!
