Dick Dale and His Del-Tones - Checkered Flag

Capitol Records, 1963. Checkered Flag is the third studio album by Dick Dale and his Del-Tones, released in 1963. This was Dale's first entry into hot rod rock, which The Beach Boys, among others, were beginning to perform and record. Here, the style shifts somewhat and features slightly altered beats and some added sounds to give the impression of the energy of Hot-rodding (this is not always the case though).
