@welcome welcome Bill Hailey, did not invent shit, nor did Elvis, at least Link Ray, sound was original and badass, Bill Hailey and copycats, of music that was already present at that time.
I guess you all watched rumble on netflix and it brought you here lol. I think this performance is to distorted, takes away from the rawness and mystique of his original but yes this started the rebellious danger aspect of rock n roll
The Godfather of The Power Chord, literally the coolest, most badass guy that ever walked this planet! God bless you Link Wray, thank you for showing us all the way! Rest easy, brother...🙏👊🎸🔥
He definitely had those Marshalls cranked all the way to 11… When I saw him play at the bluebird theater in Denver, he had four double stacks cranked to 11… Two stacks facing the audience, the other two standing just behind the previous two but facing backwards. The sound was terrifying
Think about it, Link was there in the Fifty as one of the originators of rock. In this clip it’s the mid-80’s, and he’s still looking and sounding very contemporary, fitting in with punk, new wave, alternative. The other guys from the Fifties had even gone away or were distinctly nostalgia acts by then. Link never got old.
I grew up on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, and a DJ from Baltimore Buddy Dean would bring bands to Easton MD and I got to see Link Ray during the early 60s at one of the shows. To this day Link Ray is #1 on my list.
How sad that I have never heard about this gifted talented man. I watched PBS and found out for the first time. Thank you so PBS for your documentaries
original badass and rock innovator, RIP legend. You're looking at no shit rock history in the flesh. I walked into a show in 1996 with him playing and had no idea who he was, 30 years later I still remember that as the moment i saw a real rock hero that will never exist again!
My father and I saw him perform at Mohawk Place in Buffalo, New York in 2003. Two hour show and still shredding better than people around 1/3 of his age. It was fantastic. I also got his autograph on my concert ticket.
I remember when Rumble was released back in the late 50's .. I played the grooves off the 45 and a few needles on my cheap mono record player .. to hear Anton Fig explosive drumming for this performance just blows me away .. priceless!
I *thought* that looked like Anton Figg, who I only knew from Letterman's band, so I read the comments hoping for confirmation. Thank you for doing that!
At 77 years old I was lucky to have heard this song in 1958 and could not get it out of my head. I used to picture vampires coming in my bedroom while this was playing late at night on my radio under my pillow. Wkbw came in clear and so did wprt so it was easy to hear this at all hours. May God have link do concerts in Heaven if I get there.
If you were 77 in 1958, I have some bad news: the vampires got you! But who am I to judge. It might not be bad news to you! But yeah, they got you alright.
Well Lisa my humble apologies for the terrible way I worded my terrible comment. I was 11 years old when I first heard the song. Guess my injuries in 1967 while in the military. Five months being told that you won't live has an affect on the mind. Sorry to set you off sideways.
@user-tp7ny5xi3f Hey, I didn't mean anything by it, I was trying to be funny! As in, if you were 77 in 1958 and you are posting on this, that would mean you are currently well over 100 years old, and vampires are about the only way to achieve that! Meaning, "They (the vampires) got (bit/turned) you!" & that's why you're over 100 yrs old & posting on UA-cam about the experience that started it! Sounds like something my mind would conjure up as well. Nothing terrible about it; I apologize if I gave offense.
Sorry to sound so crass, I must say after listening to Link years ago and seeing him on stage left me kind of nostalgic and showed me my age and all I have seen and done since I heard the song in 1958. I thank you for your kind words and if I see your name again my message to you will be a positive one.@@LisaJohnson1967
@user-tp7ny5xi3f Bless you; much respect & many thanks for your Service. I'm sorry you suffered what must have been a terrible injury. I'm glad you lived, & still appreciate amazing music! Your Service helped pave the way for me to Serve; almost 14 yrs in the Texas Army National Guard, 2 deployments to Iraq, and a medical discharge. But I wasn't forced to Serve; I'm sorry if you weren't given a choice. Again...much respect.
When I first heard this song, there were no distortion pedals, no digital delay, no monitors, just reverb on the amp and whammy bars on the guitars, try to imagine the impact of these heretofore unheard of sounds on the youth of the day. We would wait until the tune turned up on AM radio, which it did once an hour, and our heads would explode. Link Wray altered the musical landscape.
If I came down from space and someone told me that all rock and roll sprang forth from this song I'd believe it. And look at Link's strut, both that and the song speak of danger.
My Mom played this when I was young -- she was a late 50s gurl...Love this song! So proud to know this is a NC man -- my dad's sides' home state (I was born in VA). Whooeee! Wish I'd of known about him years ago! Dayam! RIP and maybe I'll catch ya in heaven!
THIS performance of THIS song by THIS artist is as close as you can get to the most perfect fusion of rock-a-billy , blues based hard rock and punk that is humanly possible.
Haha clearly you don't know what your talking about.. he invented the power chord which in turn opened the door to heavy metal,punk and the likes so yeah he is in a way the godfather of heavy metal
He is a pretty big influence on heavy metal but he did not “invent” it. No need to get carried away. He did popularize power chords and distortion in rock music, which is already more than most musicians ever accomplished.
We know, evidentially from this video, who influenced the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page and generations of badass guitar players. Link Wray also personified “cool”; RIP, brother ..
I first heard of Link Wray from Jimmy Page in an interview. (He gives great interviews.) He said Link Wray was his inspiration of a lot of LZ tunes. You can hear Rumble in Kashmir’s sound. Pete Townsend also said no rock without Link Wray.
Link Wray MAGISTRAL!!! J'ADOOORE ce mec. Et c'est le tout aussi FENOMENAL JIMMY PAGE que j'ai découvert Link Wray 💯🤙👍👍👍Merci pour le partage Mr PAGE ❤🙏🙏🙏
This song came out when I was 12. It BLEW MY TINY MIND! AND WITH IN A WEEK IT WAS BANNED. You could hear it occasionally hear it late at night when a defiant DJ would play it and accept the consequences which sometimes were not working for a day.
This dude is 55 years old in this performance and bouncing around like a 20 year old. RIP rocker. You were kickin' ass before kicking ass was even a thing and probably while chewing gum at the same time too.
Went to see Link Wray at this outdoor restaurant/event place in the mid-2000s. He never made it and two weeks later the news came out he was dead. As sad as that is, the opening act also did rockabilly, including Rumble, to make us not regret coming and it was still a nice evening due to them. Part of me thought Link had health problems at his age, not 100% but saddened at the news of his passing.
We know, evidentially from this video, who influenced Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page and the badass guitar players of the generations that followed him. Link Wray also personified “cool” for generations. I wonder if he knew the influence and effects he had on so many?
Wray always fascinated me. Seemed to put together a handful of quintessential instrumentals in quick succession in the late 50s early 60s and never really made much after that.
So so simple but boy oh boy it hits you right between the eyes and gut. So so heavy, powerful, intense with such a swagger. How did he come up with this in the 50’s! Whenever I pick up a guitar that has a fat dirty nasty tone this is the first thing I play.
Link is god level but I think your comment about JP is a wee bit too harsh considering that Rolling Stone magazine described Page as "the pontiff of power riffing" and ranked him number three in their list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time", behind Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton!
@@Redracer608 Yes I am aware of the documentary which stars Page and he mimics the rumble riffs but it sure does not portray Page as a giddy schoolgirl.
@@Redracer608 I thought Jimmy was a bit "giddy" also (in a good way, though). He was just so into the guitar riff -almost getting off on it. Great work, Jimmy.....glad to see that the music still makes you have a great time!!
This was the first song I ever learned to play on the first electric guitar (a Sears-Roebuck) I ever bought with my own money through my first amp (also a Sears-Roebuck). I went to my garage, cranked it to 10 and never looked back. I was 10 years old and by God I was a guitar hero.
Saw Link at the Double Door in Charlotte, NC in the late 90s and had the opportunity to meet him after the show. I walked up to him, whipped out my wallet and attempted to hand him the largest bill I had - only a $10. He looked puzzled and asked "What's this for?" I said "Pete Townsend said anyone who ever played a loud, distorted guitar owes you money and this is all I got!" He laughed genuinely and told me to keep my money. We had a nice conversation. He was in his 70s at that point and he rocked the house.
Que estilazo tiene, que forma de tocar la guitarra y dicho sea de paso, de exhibirse. Todo un genio. Las leyendas no han de ser las más famosas pero si conocidas, de manera que siempre permanecerán en la historia!

Link Wray is not dead as long as people remember his music.
This man and this song is the definition of Rock and Roll. Period
Agreed!
Exactly! Cool and badass!

Saw Link twice in Portland, Oregon in the 90's after being ressurected by Quentin Tarantino for pulp fiction. The Duke of Distortion!!!!
@@mybethw You must be so proud. He was awesome
Link Wray was 55 years old here!
@@musibaba70 I saw him last in 1999 at the Pine Street Theater in Portland Oregon.
And 55 years old at this performance
Yes, and I am amazed at how he's running around the stage like a man in his 20s.
written in 1958......the birth of heavy music and ear-splitting distortion......thank you, Link Wray and the Wraymen!
This is one of the all time great clips on UA-cam.
He definitely had those Marshalls cranked all the way to 11… When I saw him play at the bluebird theater in Denver, he had four double stacks cranked to 11… Two stacks facing the audience, the other two standing just behind the previous two but facing backwards. The sound was terrifying
WOW!
Fuck, at the bluebird. Amazing venue
This may have come out back in 1958 but the way Link Wray plays!!! It never gets old!
OK avec toi. Ça ne se démode pas car TALENTUEUX ET EXCELLENT !! Rock & RoL Baby 👍👍👍
2023: I've been a Link Wray fan ever since this song played on transistor radio. He was great and one of a kind. Thanks for this post.
I still have his Lp on Epic and well as the 45rpm of rumble.
@@StratBurst92 Excellent. Best Regards to a True Fan.

looks like he just left his audition to join the ramones lol
I bloody see it man how this one dude infiuenced everybody. I'ts crazy man.
Link has the look of Elvis, Stevie Ray, Lou Reed, and Ric Ocasek, all wrapped up together! His presence is all amazing!
Timeless - RIP Link Wray 1929-2005
I would like to make something like this with a shuffle beat.
I grew up on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, and a DJ from Baltimore Buddy Dean would bring bands to Easton MD and I got to see Link Ray during the early 60s at one of the shows. To this day Link Ray is #1 on my list.
Here because of Rumble: The Indians Who Rocked the World on PBS. Link Wray is so hot and so cool with that nasty grin. Hoo ha!
Very good drummer too!
Look at the Link Ray swagger!! Beat that!!
❤
How sad that I have never heard about this gifted talented man. I watched PBS and found out for the first time. Thank you so PBS for your documentaries
Just heard about this on 9/23/22. Started listening to rock n roll in 1960 and never knew about Rumble.
You need to get out more.!!!

literally dancing with the distortion. Those hips don’t lie.
⚡️🎸⚡️
He might be lying through his ass, tho". 🤣
I saw Link at Winterland in 75. Blew me away. Page said he got his swagger from Link Wray
I remember when Rumble was released back in the late 50's .. I played the grooves off the 45 and a few needles on my cheap mono record player .. to hear Anton Fig explosive drumming for this performance just blows me away .. priceless!

Metal started with Link Wray.

We would wait until the tune turned up on AM radio, which it did once an hour, and our heads would explode. Link Wray altered the musical landscape.
A tune soo dirty, that you probably need to take a shower afterwards!!!!
Bless You Link for ALL the energy!!!!🤘
Without Link Wray, there might ve never been bands like Blue Cheer, or the Yardbirds, and so on, and on!
Loved this tune from my first hearing!.
This guy seriously shredded! So much energy in the first serious shred lick ever, still sounds awesome!
Banned on US radio when it was released for fear of inciting street violence. A lot has changed in US over sixty-odd years.
That he does
I don't think so Cary.
Tequila didn't make me drink, and Dreams, dreams, didn't make me sleep. What songs made you do what, besides feel good?
@@Onthemove6801 Yep! And let's not forget that it is still the only instrumental song to be banned!

Way ahead of his time and still fresh now. He made me start learning how to play the electric guitar. Him and the Cramps
Well, looking at this again, his dance moves are legendary.
One of the best, most underrated guitarists of all time. Thanks for the great music, Link and may you rest in peace guitar brother! 💖💖💖

damn near 30 years after song came out and he still smileing and having fun playin it
Closer to SIXTY years: this song came out in 1958!
One of the coolest cats of the jungle. Nuff said.
Link Wray sowed the seeds of heavy metal and punk!! In this performance, he reminded me of Jimmy Page and Iggy Pop.
These damn kids and that loud rock n roll!! Cain't nobody get no sleep around here!!!
These youths are unruly and full of mischief ! We need to put a stop to this now before they get out of control !!! 😂
This was wrote in 58, way ahead of it's time!
Amerindians Rock!!! Link Wray was most certainly a force of nature, a force to be reckoned with!!!
The way he's playing the guitar is literally impossible, this man is a legend!!
He's got his style
Wow. I just found this live version. I thought the original was awesome. This version is amazing. I wish I could have seen him perform in person.
Link Wray was so much better than ANY musician today……….👍🏼👍🏼
This song is considered to be the very first Heavy Metal song and Wray is considered to be the Godfather Of Heavy Metal.
No, it isn't. Considered by WHO? YOU? You don't know what you're talking about.
Haha clearly you don't know what your talking about.. he invented the power chord which in turn opened the door to heavy metal,punk and the likes so yeah he is in a way the godfather of heavy metal

SO true in 1958 so true in 2024. In your face.
This dude was Rock and Roll. Just look at his styling at that age.. Pure RnR
