Some other bands the members have played in include Del Noah and the Mt. The Los Angeles-based band consists of Brent Walker (Caltiki) on guitar, steel guitar and mandolin Julia Devine (Nepheria) on electric and upright bass Rosann Simeroth (Puka von Pele) on drums and percussion Edwin Letcher (Rama Lama) on guitar, ukulele and xylophone, and all four on vocals. The vocal numbers (laden with tongue-in-cheek humor and satire) often tell stories set within the worlds of Tiki culture, Polynesian Pop and dark jungle adventure, but with very strange twists and turns along the way. Their original repertoire, written and sung variously by all four members-two female, two male-is split between instrumentals and vocals. The Edsels originally recorded the song under the title of 'Rama Lama Ding Dong' in 1957, but upon its release in 1958, it was errently. The fez-wearing band counts Link Wray, Martin Denny, the Cramps, the Sonics, Elvis, the B-52s, Sol Hoopii, Esquivel, Joe Meek, Jerry Lee Lewis, Don Knotts soundtrack composer Vic Mizzy, and the Las Vegas Grind and Frolic Diner LPs among their inspirations. As a festive garnish, they add eccentric stereo arrangements of 50s and 60s hi-fi records, featuring instruments such as steel and baritone guitar, xylophone and ukelele.
#RAMA LAMA DING DONG SURFER LINGO FREE#
The Ding Dong Devils create a wild hybrid musical cocktail by taking a base of Tiki, exotica and Polynesian pop, then mixing it with dashes of fuzzy 60’s garage rock, amped-up rockabilly, tremolo-laden surf, and even the greasy bump and grind music that was used to accompany burlesque performers. Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong You dont believe that shes mine, all mine I love her Love her, love her so And Ill never, never let her go One thing for certain shes mine, all mine Shes mine all of the time Oh I got a girl named Rama Lama Rama Lama Ding Dong Shes everything to me Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong Ill never set her free For.
