Calling Up Spirits

Description

Product Description After guitar legend Dick Dale's classic "Misirlou" was used in the 1994 film Pulp Fiction, a new generation of listeners were introduced to Dale's influential and endlessly energetic brand of surf rock.When sold by .com, this product will be manufactured on demand using CD-R recordable media. .com's standard return policy will apply. .com Calling Up Spirits is ostensibly surf guitar legend Dick Dale's attempt to translate Native-American musical traditions into instrumental rock. When you get down to it, however, it's just guitar pyrotechnics with a slight patina of tribal ritualism. There's really no reason for anyone but the hardest of hardcore Dale fetishists to own this record; its best song, "The Wedge Paradiso," sounds identical to the classic "Miserlou," horns included. He can still play like a master, but better to invest in an older album. --Keven McAlester
