Album Notes & Community Reviews

Surfing legend Dick Dale shifts focus toward the parallel hot rod music craze with this energetic session. The record maintains his aggressive, tremolo-picked guitar style while exploring more conventional vocal arrangements that bridge surfing culture with car culture themes.
