This album is a masterpiece. Whether you are new to Dick Dale music or a long time fan you will be amazed by his artistry and unique guitar playing. There are hard driving electric guitar pieces and in addition there are magnificient acoustic pieces. It is very rare in one album to go from high energy,hard driving unique electric guitar pieces to south of the border acoustics guitar to blues in one cohesive album. He even throws a few great vocal pieces. Most of the material is newly composed and Dick Dale never stops to amaze. He just keeps getting better and better which is hard to imagine, since he is one of the greatest innovators of guitar playing in the history. This album is next best thing to see him play live.

If you are new to Dick Dale or just getting reacquainted then don't buy this album first. Try "Tribal Thunder" instead and then come back to Spacial Disorientation.

If you are a fan or are into to guitar music in general then definitely pick up this album. Dick spreads out and plays out and around from the surf sound that made him a king.

Dick proves that he can play well anything he wants to in any style or genre.

If you are looking just for hardcore surf guitar this album will disappoint you but if you want to hear a great musician groove outside of his standard fare then dig in.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Triumph!, May 16, 2002

It's taken nearly forty years for Dick Dale to be recognized beyond the California borders as the true Guitar-God that he is. Dick Dale was able to create a sound that other artists, like the Ventures, were only able to dream about.

Spatial Disorientation is the best of his "Comeback Part III" efforts. It's a must for any guitar instrumental lover.

What really needs to be released on CD is his early '80's "live" epic, "The Tiger's Loose." It's a crime the Rhino has not re-released it!
