Various ArtistsMerrell Fankhauser's Tiki Lounge Volume One DVD
Review by Eric Meli
This DVD is a compilation of former surf group The Impacts’ Merrell Fankhauser's cable television show “Tiki Lounge.” The first episode is based on instrumental surf with an interview with Dick Dale and a Ventures medley shot in 1989. Out of the other five episodes, one is called “Fast Cars and Rock and Roll,” which has a Huey Lewis and the News video and also a video by the Doobie Brothers.
There’s also a concert with Willie Nelson and a Spirit tribute included here. This DVD also features a 40-minute audio CD with some of the music from the “Tiki Lounge” program.

The best part for me is show three, called “Classic Rock.” It contains live versions of “Born On The Bayou” and about five others songs. Like the first DVD, this one also comes with a CD of songs from the shows.
