The Vaughan brothers were inspired fans of Link.

I came within a minute and a half of seeing Link two years ago... that minute and a half turned the fine Line into a broiler oven... Some quotes: "He is the King; if it hadn't been for Rumble, I would have never picked up a guitar." -- Pete Townsend "If I could go back in time and see one concert it would be Link Wray and His Wraymen." ---Neil Young a classic quote from an interview with John Cipollina, 20 years ago: Rumble, man.....Rumble just blew me away. That's what turned me on to playing guitar. He's the father of the power chord. I still remember it as one of my strongest memories, man. It just burned itself in my mind. I heard Rumble....it was '58. When I heard that, what I heard was, dirty, man. What he was doing was saying, f*ck man, kiss my ass, you know, real rebellious shit, you know, without saying it, you know. -- John Cipollina Check out the healthy Link Wray bio at http://www.allmusic.com<about:blankRIP |
