I actually don't think too many people know who he is.

[Michael Jewels]

Oh wow!

I didn't hear anything about this!

I still have the album, "Robert Gordon with Link Wray."

That guy could play.

RIP, Mr. Wray.

Mike

Thanks for the heads-up, James.

[Matt Till]

Clearly.


Last night on Conan O'Brien, the max weinberg 7 played "Rumble" during one of the breaks.

I heard a cut from the Who: Live at Leeds this morning...you could clearly hear that it was derived from "Rumble"...

I gotta alot of Link Wray music. The guy is awesome and a big inspiration to me. Plus he had that cool Danelectro 'Longhorn' guitar.

RIP and thanks for doin' whatcha' did!

Play "Rumble" next time you're in a music store as a tribue to Link Wray. You will sound 100 times cooler that any wanker in there.
