I always appreciated how he pretty much created the soundtrack for surfing by means if traditional Lebanese music. It worked.
And Proteus brought the upright beast into the garden and chained him to a tree and the children did make sport of him.
I got to hear all those “Pipeline” and “Wipeout” etc hits as a child. My imagination is still surfing. Boston kid moves to SoCal at just the right time.

The saddest part is that he wasn't able to live from passive income as an established successful artist.
