Dale says he was smitten at first sight with the young woman, who worked as a veterinary assistant, shared his love of animals and didn't know Dick Dale from Dale Evans.
Dale says that the review, coupled with his wife's continuing exhortations to just "crank on the guitar," finally persuaded him to drop the show-band approach and play bare-bones power rock (of course, the prospect of having to pay only two backing players, instead of 10 or 11, probably had some appeal, too).
