An absolute guitar demon and one of the true greats. He was also Little Richard-esque in the sense of going around saying stuff like I am the originator, I am the emancipator! - Dick Dale would tell you he invented metal, punk, "indie", you name it. Which is fine: an original who could play like such a motherfucker's got the right to boast a bit sometimes.
