RIP Dick Dale

In 1962 Dick Dale rearranged [Misirlou] as a solo instrumental rock guitar piece. During a performance, Dale was bet by a young fan that he could not play a song on only one string of his guitar. Dale's father and uncles were Lebanese-American musicians, and Dale remembered seeing his uncle play "Misirlou" on one string of the oud. He vastly increased the song's tempo to make it into rock and roll.

The Gong Show was the best. I had a performance art professor who "won" worst act on TGS. The prize was the same as "best" act!

@Joe McG - no need to apologise man, keep at it. We listen to FMU to hear stuff that doesn’t get played anywhere else. This is Grade A music. If I were a requesting man I put in a shout for Al Bowlly...
