| | | | My band plays Rumble by Link Wray & His Ray Men.
The song is "the only instrumental single banned from the radio airwaves". Back in 1958, Phil Everly of The Everly Brothers heard it and suggested the title Rumble, as it had a rough sound and said it sounded like a street fight.
It was banned in several radio markets because the term rumble was a slang term for a gang fight, and it was feared that the song's harsh sound glorified "juvenile delinquency. Nevertheless it became a huge hit, not only in the United States where it climbed to number sixteen on the charts in the summer of 1958, but also in Great Britain, where it has been cited as an influence on The Kinks and The Who, among others. |

Rumble is supposed to be played at a slow tempo, as it's a "stroll". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Stroll
