I’d have thought someone would have posted on the surf guitar legend’s passing by now. He deserves acknowledgement here even if he isn’t too highly regarded in the rankings.
Re: Dick Dale
I only know a few songs by him, but he's certainly a legend of surf rock and deserves to be honored here. "Misirlou" is one of the most badass songs ever recorded. R.I.P.

Re: Dick Dale
Didn't actually know that he was still alive (until March 16th that is). It should have been mentioned earlier, true. I don't know much beyond Misirlou, but that one is great and apparently he is the true founder of the surf guitar sound, which is cool.
