ERIC WINSTONE

Playing piano in his spare time from a job as Westminster Gas and Coke Company led him to form his first band in 1935. He learned the accordion, started an accordion school and formed an accordion quintet, a swing quintet, and a big band orchestra.
During World War II his orchestra entertained the forces, and performed at holiday camps after the war.
Winstone gained much exposure from his radio program "Music While You Work".
DID YOU KNOW ...
The song "Good Vibrations" was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1994. Rolling Stone Magazine ranked the song at number 6 in their "500 Greatest Songs of All Times".
MHO
Strict upbeat instrumental version of the famous Beach Boys hit with a solid bass while the arrangement also includes some of the original "musical surprises" that defined this sixties "monument".
I could listen to that typical opening phrase hundreds of times ;-) !
Enjoy !
