The Deep

"The Deep" is a song recorded by Gary Hoey.
== Overview ==
Originally included in the film The Endless Summer II, and on its soundtrack, "The Deep" was a truly solo effort from Hoey - no rhythm section was utilized. However, he often reprised the song in his live set, and over the years, refined a fuller, band-driven arrangement. In 2006, Hoey re-recorded the song with this arrangement, and included it on the album American Made.
Strangely, Hoey claimed in interviews at the time that it hadn't appeared on an album before, obviously forgetting that it was indeed included on no less than three prior releases. However, it is possible that Hoey was referring specifically to the new arrangement.
