21st Century Bluesman Link Wray's 'Rumble' turns 50... (5) RE: Link Wray's 'Rumble' turns 50... 15 Mar 08


Unfortunately Link Wray is no longer with us. He died a couple of years back, but he was performing right to the end. He was best known for his 1950s and early sixties guitar instrumentals, but I think a few Mudcatters would be more interested in his output when he reinvented himself as a roots rocker in the late '60s and early '70s with albums such as Link Wray, Beans and Fatback and Be What You Want To Be. Well worth searching out - reminiscent of The Band's best stuff. He was of Native American stock and very proud of the fact.
