on this day in the year 1937, the one and only King of the Surf Guitar, Dick Dale, was born. Here he is, playing possibly his best known song, at the age of 76.

Guitar Center Sessions: Dick Dale - Misirlou

While I love Misirlou, the fact that he had to tour almost to the end of his life because of medical bills is a goddamn travesty.

The song everyone has heard but may not know the name of.
