best_know_for: Dick Dale was an American rock guitarist. He was the pioneer of surf music, drawing on Middle Eastern music scales and experimenting with reverb. Dale was known as "The King of the Surf Guitar", which was also the title of his second studio album. Dale was one of the most influential guitarists of all time and especially of the early 1960s. Most of the leading bands in surf music, such as The Beach Boys, Jan and Dean and The Trashmen, were influenced by Dale's music, and often included recordings of Dale's songs in their albums. His style and music influenced guitarists such as Jimi Hendrix, Pete Townshend, Eddie Van Halen and Brian May. He has been mentioned as one of the fathers of heavy metal. Many credit him with tremolo picking, a technique that is now widely used in many musical genres (such as extreme metal, folk etc.).

best_know_for: Manu Dibango (1933–2020) was a Cameroonian saxophonist, composer, and bandleader whose genre-blending style made him one of Africa’s most influential musical ambassadors. Born in Douala, he moved to Europe as a teenager and developed his craft in Belgium and France, absorbing jazz, rhythm and blues, and other Western styles. His breakthrough came in 1972 with “Soul Makossa,” a pioneering Afro-funk track built on infectious grooves and his signature saxophone riffs; the song became a global hit and helped introduce African popular music to international audiences. Throughout his long career, Dibango collaborated with artists across genres—from Fela Kuti to Herbie Hancock—while continually exploring new sounds, including jazz, funk, reggae, and traditional Cameroonian rhythms. Beyond music, he was known for his warm personality, cultural advocacy, and mentorship of younger African musicians. He remained active into his later years, performing and recording until his death in 2020.
