"Out Of Limits" by The Marketts.

OK, back to the 60's: This Hollywood, CA-based surf-rock garage/studio instrumental band had 3 Top 40 hits during their brief career. The first one was "Surfer Stomp" in '62, peaking at #31. Their cover of the "Batman Theme" (which, by the way, they did NOT compose) hit #17 in '66. Their biggest hit (#3 in '64) was based upon a popular TV mystery show which ran between '63 and '65. Part of the "Pulp Fiction" ('94) soundtrack. Masterfully covered by the Ventures. Group? Biggest hit?

Yesterday's answer: "Nothing Compares 2 U" by Sinead O'Connor. The unique video features mostly a close-up of her face as she sings - towards the end two tears run down her cheeks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUiTQvT0W_0&ob=av3e
