I can't get over that picking, some of my favorite guitarist are Tony Iommi, Eddie Van Halen, Dimebag Darrell, Randy Rhodes, Marty Friedman, but Dick Dale's extremely fast picking style, combined with his upside down left handed guitar, the way he pushed amplifiers past their limits, and how he handled reverb, it's truly mind blowing. Plus the fact that even now in his 70's, he can put on quite the energetic show. A very sadly under rated guitarist.

The fast-picking technique originates from Arabic music. Dick Dale (who was half-Arab) said he learnt the fast-picking technique from his Lebanese-Arab uncle, who played like that on the Arabic Oud (ancestor of the guitar). Dale adapted the technique onto the electric guitar, creating surf-rock music. Dale was probably the first rockstar to use Eastern musical techniques, several years before The Beatles started experimenting with Indian music.

We were towards the front and lost track of him in the crowd. Several years later, my college roommate told me he had a friend at that show who told him that Dick Dale actually walked into the middle of High Street in front of the venue, which was the main road through the city, and played in the center of the street while traffic drove past on either side of him.

I'm a fan of DD. This song and King Of The Surf Guitar are my two faves of his. Listen to the quick bends in KOTSG and you'll know why I also love and admire that tune. Like many, I found my way to DD thanks to Quentin T. I love Misirlou and attempt to play it, but tend to get tangled up on that tremolo picking on the looser high end strings. Dick is known for playing with very thick strings (much like SRV) so I'm sure that helped him develop that style. In this vid, it is just about as much fun to watch the intensity of the drummer as it is to watch the man. Got to hear him play live in a club a few years back. The next morning my ears were ringing like a .44 mag had been shot off near my head. LOL Dude plays LOUD!

He's playing that guitar upside down?!! What a legend!

I gather he either couldn't find or couldn't afford a left handed guitar when he was first learning to play, so he learned on a right handed guitar turned upside down. When he was able to get a left-handed Strat he strung it the way he was used to. Hendrix was sort of the opposite. He played a right-handed Strat restrung "properly" for a lefty.

He's my all time musical hero! His music has been the background themes in my head since I came to California from Hawaii 55 years ago. His music captures the oceans' dynamic moods: from strength and unforgiving power to the gentle caress of the glassy morning sea. He is the musical translator of the spirit of the Ocean.

Dick Dale, is one of the toughest looking people. I ever saw. I think that's the best music, I ever heard. It's fantastic.
