On track F3, two 'Wilsons' surnames are credited but no 'Edwards' (for Nokie Edwards). The 2nd Wilson mention is suspected to be a repeated misprinting of the 1st Wilson (Don Wilson of the band The Ventures, who wrote the song). So Nokie Edwards is given an uncredited attribution here (according to the band's album @ http://www.discogs.com/Jon-The-Nightriders-Surf-Beat-80/release/2956309 ^ the original release where the track appeared http://www.discogs.com/Ventures-The-Fabulous-Ventures/release/3031049).
