Surfers’ Choice is the debut album of Dick Dale and his Del-Tones, pioneers in the surf genre. It was released in 1962. The recording established the conventions of surf music and brought the concept to middle America. The album was mostly recorded live at the Rendezvous Ballroom, with overdubs added in the studio. The record was out of print for a long time but was reissued on CD by Sundazed Records in October 2006. All tracks composed by Dick Dale; except where indicated.
Sticker text from plastic packaging (not shrink wrap): "A Surf Guitar Landmark" "Dick Dale's 1962 debut LP Surfers' Choice introduced the world to the thunderous sound of surf guitar, as pioneered by the man who invented the style. Largely recorded at Dale's legendary Rendezvous Ballroom in Balboa Beach and featuring such tunes as "Let's Go Trippin'," "Surf Beat" and "Misirlou Twist," this groundbreaking album forever changed the face of rock guitar.

Very few early rock & roll albums were true groundbreakers, but this is one: not only did it single-handedly establish the surf music genre (and Dick Dale's hegemony over it), but also sold the entire concept to mass America, where surfing in landlocked regions was only a state of mind.
