Thanks for the review Ivan...and I'm glad you said things about Dick
that I've never had the guts to say on a surf forum. I know that
Dick had a huge part in creating the whole surf instru genre. But
personally, his tunes, for the large part, bore the hell out of me.
He hasn't really done anything other than regurgitate the same stuff
over and over for 40 years. Aside from that, his never-ending self
promotion has turned me off more than anything.
I'm guessing that by the time Dick kicks the reverb tank and heads
off to heaven, the story will be that he recorded Misirlou in 1941,
while he was giving Gene Krupa drums lessons.
