The Chosen Surf Band!

Nobody here disputes Dick Dale is the king of surf guitar . This video was shot when our band was brand new and it was 100 degrees out that day if I recall. Here's a recent video, again we're not competing with Dick Dale. It's an homage to him. Incidentally he saw us play not too long ago and was very complimentary, which has made me very proud.

I can't believe I'm listening to this for free

I was looking for Swedish prog metal, instead I found Hebrew(?) surf music. I love KZfaq

THAT'S the proper way to play a surf version of Hava Nagila! I love the 'Shmagecky Shlamazel' bit...

thanks Surf Collector. We in the surf music community recognize that instrumental bands are at a disadvantage not having a front person/singer. Thus most bands are hard to identify except to the extreme surf fans. This is why lots of bands dress up or have some kind of shtick. Believe me, if the first time we wore the outfits and the audience didn't like it or was interested we would have dropped them. But the fact is, people love them. It makes them happy, so it makes us happy.

I've been a fan of Meshugga Beach Party for several years, and although I'm a Gentile, I've been preaching the gospel of MBP to others who are not "of the Tribe," in the hopes that they, too, can be converted!

Love this and meet all the credentials. I am a Jew, like surf rock, i like klezmer, and I also like the band Meshuggah!

The King of the Surf Guitar, Dick Dale, was born Richard Monsoor to a Lebanese father, so like many great Americans (Bobby Rahal, Casey Kasem, Tony Shalhoub, Danny Kaye among the most famous) he is of Arab descent. He is noted for the middle eastern influences on his music. Misirlou itself is an old Greek song, and the name translates, ironically enough, to "Egyptian Girl". Good luck to your song on learning the guitar. He can't go wrong with Dick Dale!

Thanks to Dick Dale for inspiring another generation of rockabilly surf rock, shalom yall!

Surf music goes with everything.

I hope they have a million fans. Wonderful group.

Schweet! The best Hava Nagila I will ever hear!

This was just awesome, the drummer is spot on.

That reverb is dripping wet. Love it!!!

These guys are amazing. I like how they go right from Hava Nagilia right into Miserlou.

I love good instrumentals. My friend introduced me to surf music years ago, I went to some fun concerts in L.A., and have enjoyed it since. That was great.

I was there! They were awesome! :)

Congratulations for Hava Nagila. Congratulations from Brazil. HAVA NAGILA ISRAEL.

I think I have a new favorite song. This will sound incredible in my 57.

I LOVE Meshugga beach party! Their music is just too crazy!

the best thing is being a fan of the swedish metal band Meshuggah, and ending up with this while lurking around youtube:D

DD is one of the world's two greatest left-handed guitar players. The other is Jimi Hendrix.

These meshuggenah kids are welcome to The Oasis anytime - they are superb; they should have a jam with The Sheiks of Araby Danceband.. I would pay a thousand shekels to see that!!

I actually thought this was the metal band Meshuggah playing "Hava Nagila", man that would have been really cool. Still good though- fun performance. Love that Dick Dale surfy guitar tone

These guys are lots of fun‼️

67 people are meshugga!

I've seen from Egypitan themed death metal to Taiwaneese symphonic black metal and ALL kinds of underground stuff inbetween. I thought I'd seen it all....untill now. FANTASTIC! Please tell me there'll be a tour!?!?

I've heard Miserlou done surfer style, but not Hava Nagila - and mixing the two, what a blast! If you're looking for the 1927 Greek version, try spelling it Misirlou. Apparently, there were even earlier versions from Egypt and thereabouts.

I so absolutely love this. In my fantasies I'd have them come to Denmark and play at my daughter's Bat Mitzvah.

Haleluya!!!!!!!!! full of Power................Shalommmmmmm Aleichem......שלום על ארה"ב

I thought I was meshugga, but you guys take the matzo. Now I got the blues 'cuz I want me more Meshugga Beach Party my bubbies! I love this band!

Good job ZZ TOP!

Hooray for Fender guitars and Meshugga Beach Party.

The Good ole Blues Boys Brothers Band.

אני מציג בפניך את אחת הגרסאות הטובות ביותר של "חוה נגילה" ששמעתי, ללא ספק, פלא.

In the spirit of the old Ventures! Love it!

Great combination of two classics!

Should have been the theme tune to Inglorious Basterds. Think again Quentin....

Cool, we went from Fiddler on the Roof to Pulp Fiction in one shot!

Шикарно!!!

It helped me like this song more

Great!.. Love it, played it over and over..and shared it! I'd like to see you guys turn other tunes into surf.. There is a group in Branson that can turn anything into bluegrass, I'd like to hear the same for surf.. GREAT JOB!

I REALLY enjoyed that!!!!!!!
