Dick Dale and His Del Tones

Dick Dale and His Del Tones were a surf rock group from the sixties. They are best known for providing the song Misirlou, considered the definitive surf rock song. Dale is often labeled the "King of the Surf Guitar", and is credited as the main pioneer of the surf rock sound. He has been considered by the actual Hall of Fame, but not inducted. Also, only he has been considered, without the Del Tones. The origins of Misirlou are uncertain, but it is believed to be an old Ottoman folk song. The name is Turkish for "Egyptian". The song is best known for its use in the soundtrack to the film Pulp Fiction.
