Californians will always remember Dick Dale as the man who gave birth to surf music. The man who played his golden Fender so fast, he melted guitar picks in a single song. His arrangement of Misirlou with its lightning tremolo was the first surfing song recorded. From it and other hits spawned The Beach Boys, Jan & Dean, and the most influential pop sound of the early 60s. If you missed Dick the first time around, heres your chance to listen to the original California Beach Beat.
