I've been jonesin to learn & play a surf guitar version of the Hawaiian War Chant ever since I saw it performed on a repeat (obviously) of the old Lawrence Welk Show.

I recall the Ventures doing a version on one of their earliest records.

Of course, that doesn't mean they did. (I'm over 50 and not accountable for accurate memories)
