A bold pioneer in the use of speed, volume and sonic texture, the charismatic Dale invented surf music, and in the process permanently altered the role of the electric guitar in rock ’n’ roll. Of all the surf guitarists who would follow in Dale’s wake, none could match his prodigious technique, his fierce showmanship or his restless inventiveness. At the dawn of the 1960s, Dale’s passion for the sport of surfing inspired him to create music that replicated the physical sensations of the surfing experience. Although he began releasing singles on his own Deltone label in the late ’50s, Dale made much of his most enduring music during his ’60s stint with Capitol Records. In addition to carving out the surf sound on the landmark albums Surfers’ Choice, King of the Surf Guitar and Summer Surf, Dale turned for inspiration to another all-American pursuit—drag racing—to create the hot-rod music genre on the LPs Checkered Flag and Mr. Eliminator. Now, Sundazed is making Dick Dale’s reverb-soaked, genius LPs available once again, the way they were meant to be heard: on vinyl. Our vinyl restoration of the vintage Dale catalog features Checkered Flag. Checkered Flag is heavy with white-hot Dale instrumentals (“Night Rider,” “Ho-Dad Machine”) and vocal car tunes from the pens of pop’s songwriters (Gary Usher, Gary Paxton, Carol Connors). Helping Dale stir up the nitro fuel are L.A. session stars Plas Johnson, Steve Douglas, Hal Blaine and Earl Palmer. Checkered Flag is tough stuff, an unyielding trophy-run down the asphalt aisle. This album has been mastered from the original analog tapes, and is packaged with the complete original cover art.
