Dick Dale from Wikipedia

Early life

Dale was born Richard Anthony Monsour in Boston, Massachusetts, on May 4, 1937,[3] although many biographies of Dale repeat his earlier assertion that he was born in Beirut, Lebanon.[3] He is of Lebanese descent from his father and Polish-Belarusian descent from his mother.[4] His father was born in Beirut, and his mother's parents came to the U.S. from Poland; they farmed in Whitman, Massachusetts. Dale's family moved to Quincy, Massachusetts, which had a significant Lebanese immigrant community, when Dale was very young. He learned to play music, starting with piano when he was nine.[3] Dale admired Hank Williams—he wanted to be a cowboy singer—so he bought a plastic ukelele for $6 and taught himself to play by reading an instruction book. The first song he played on the ukelele was Tennessee Waltz. He then learned to play guitar, using a combination style incorporating both lead and rhythm aspects, so that the guitar filled the place of drums. He was raised in Quincy until he completed the 11th grade at Quincy High School in 1954, when his machinist father obtained a job in the Southern California aerospace industry. His parents drove the family across the country to live in El Segundo, California. Dale spent his senior year at and graduated from Washington Senior High School.[5] It was in Southern California that he learned to surf at the age of 17.[6] He soon learned to play the drums and the trumpet.[7] Due to his Lebanese heritage, he also had a strong interest in Arabic music, which later played a major role in his development of surf rock music.[
