Description

A classic! This song actually has quite the history. Originally composed sometime in the 1920's, it has been performed by various bands and musicians over the years. It's one of the few songs to crossover and become popular in several vastly different styles of music, including jazz, rebetiko, belly dancing, Klezmer, and American surf-rock. It gained much popularity again in the mid-1990's when Dick Dale's version was used in the film Pulp Fiction. It's also been featured on the videogame Guitar Hero 2. For those of you who are wondering- My guitar is hooked up to my computer via midi. If you look closely, you can see the midi pickup on my guitar next to the bridge. This pickup translates what I am playing into computer language, midi. The midi signals then are translated into musical tones thru software synthesizers. This equipment is what makes my guitar sound like a trumpet on the solo. It is my guitar, believe it or not.. Thanks for watching, everyone! Cheers!
