Misirlou

Dick Dale is universally acknowledged as the man who single-(left)-handedly invented the sound of Surf guitar.

This unique compilation features all his early singles, between 1958-62 - several of which are hard to find elsewhere on CD - plus his legendary debut album, Surfers' Choice.

This body of work traces Dick's evolution from regular teenbeat Pop/R&R vocalist to the 'King Of The Surf Guitar', a phenomenon which he effectively kick-started via the first-ever Surf instro, 'Let's Go Trippin'', in September 1961.

Includes Dale's 'signature tune', 'Misirlou', which became synonymous with Quentin Tarantino's 1994 movie Pulp Fiction.

Also features other killer Surf instro anthems like 'Del-Tone Rock', 'Jungle Fever', 'Shake-N-Stomp', 'Eight Till Midnight', 'Surf Beat', 'A Run For Life', 'Take It Off', 'Misirlou Twist', 'Surfing Drums' and 'Death Of A Gremmie'.
