The Legend & I
Dick Dale (King of the Surf Guitar) taught me his method at his home in Twentynine Palms CA at the young age of 17. How we connected was indeed different. My father met him at an aviation trade show when I was only 3 years old. Dick was the kindest man & indeed a showman. His dear wife Lana & I still keep in touch to this day after his passing. His credits are to long to list, but here are some:
1. Miserlou - Capitol records - 1963 - Surfers Choice
2. Miserlou - Pulp Fiction - 1994
3. Miserlou - Black Eyed Peas - Pump it - 2005
4. Pipeline - Dick Dale / Stevie Ray Vaughan - 1987 (Grammy Nominated)

Eliott Janz's Solo in Mike Storms latest single
Two friends collaborate
Mike Storm & I have been friends for nearly a decade. An amazing artist. Always creating & has some of the best music videos I've ever seen. Especially from an independent artist. My solo is in his latest song "Gotta Go." My solo hits right at the 3-minute mark. I recorded it in 1 hour with 1 take. You'll hear my influences of Dick Dale, Ashba & Eddie Van Halen in it. Thanks again Mike Storm! This was a blast!
