  • Thanks much! I wish I could find a better copy...

  • To me, Link was THE GREATEST rock and roll guitarist ever. He got more tone out of that 31 fret Danelectro Guitarlin than anyone before or since. Only Dexter Romweber (Flat Duo Jets) comes close!

  • This is like a transmission being picked up light years away from Earth, and I'm the alien groovin on it for the first time....zowie

  • You can get the audio-mp3 of this song at grabtubesnow doht cohm.

  • Man dig that crazy Dan Electro. Link and his off the wall budget guitars and his wild style just blows my hair back about as much as anything other than sex. I love his use of 60s Yamahas, Supro Dualtone guitar and I strongly suspect the amp too with the fuzz he got in his recordings, both live and studio. I have seen him with Gibsons and Fenders, but the cheapies like this and his "Resoglass" Supro, and mid 60s Yammie are just as cool as can be.

  • I have 2 old original guitarlins and a longhorn bass. Used to have an old longhorn 6 string bass/baritone too but sold it like a dummy. Coolest looking guitars ever, especially when Link was playing one (his first album is the first time I saw one.)

    Saw Link play the Whiskey around 1980. Sunglasses and black leather jacket. The epitome of cool and sounded fantastic! One of my heros.

  • @bluesol59 Link is so great!! I'm so glad I got to see him live. Link was an amazing performer right up to the end of his life. The A-bones would have made a fantastic backing / touring band for Link. Thanks so much for puttin' this up!

  • pity he couldnt write for toffee...

  • esto es oro!!

  • A great song that Clayton McMichen's Georgia Wildcats recorded back in the 30's.

  • It is always awesome to watch footage from way back, but when Link Wray is the star...it gets better.

  • Nice image!

  • "Link Wray was playin' on a juke box I was payin..." the lyric from song 'Sign Language ' by Bob Dylan.
