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.
A true legend has passed away!....Link lived here in Denmark for many years, and he made a big impact on the underground scene here in denmark..he will be missed!
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.
