Perhaps he performed this same concert and material in Redondo Beach but this video was taken in Santa Cruz. If the banner in the back ground was visible, you would see the 'Lobster Fest in Santa Cruz' plainly printed.
rock on dick hope you are at 100% and catching some waves right now and looking forward to catching you next time in town. long live the king of the surf guitar
Third Rock is a tv show with John Lithgow 3rd stone from the sun is a jimi hendrix song he dedicated to dick and this is dicks amazing grace 3rd stone from the sun medley he closes out most of his shows with Dicks version is on his 1996 calling up spirits cd it was a re dedication to hendrix at the time and now this medley is a tribute to his friend scotty who died at 22 with muscular dystrophy
your right it's not 3rd stone from the stone it's 3rd stone from the sun originally done by Jimi Hendrix as a tribute to Dick this is dicks version he follows up amazing grace with which he re-dedicated to Hendrix when he first did his version
yeah I said he does if you look at my comment carefully you will see that I was making a joke because that other guy called it 3rd stone from the stone instead of 3rd stone from the sun
the drummer is dusty watson he no longer plays with dick but you can check him out with agent orange and slacktone look up dusty watson on myspace and all the shows with the bands he plays for are on there
Wow Dick is playing lefty without reversing the strings!! No wonder Jimi was interested in his style! Jimi reversed the strings. That puts the bass E and the high E over opposite normal polls of the neck pick up. Slight tone difference. Leaving the strings normal as Dick does keeps the normal strat tone.
Great to see him rockin steady on a cool arrangement!
that is because it was a tribute to dick when hendrix did it. he met dick at a pasadena bar where he played backup for little richard back before the public know who he was and went to watch dicks shows in newport beach and would stay around for hours after his shows talking to him asking him questions and trying to learn from him. Dick had cancer when the are you experienced album which this song came from was being made and doctors thought he had 3 months to live thats why he said that line
The aforementioned overdub sessions reveals two additional sentences: * Hendrix: ...Then you'll never hear surf music again. That sounds like a lie to me. Come on, man; let's go home.
Thank You for posting this one, I have seen D D several times and he always finishes his show with "3rd Stone From The Sun" Perhaps as atribute to Jimi. Great Show!!!!!!!!!
3rd stone from the sun was actually a tribute from jimi to dick in the 60's because dick had rectal cancer that is why the words you will never hear surf music again are in the middle of the song dick re dedicated the song back to jimi years later with his own version you can find it on his calling up spirits or better shred then dead dick dale anthology cd
Dick Dale, Dusty Watson on drums and Sam on bass..... This is the ultimate power trio. Dick never sounded better than with this trio.

Nice piece and nice camera work. Amazing Grace segues to Third Stone at about 4:00 minutes. Dick Dale is King of the Surf Guitar!
