Wow, all i can say is your daddy was one cool ass dude with an immense amount of talent. Have u seen jimmy page listening to rumble. The grin of absolute delight on his face while listening is a complete joy to watch
I'm happy to hear he finally made it into the Hall. He should've been in decades ago as he is one of the founding fathers of RnR. He is vastly overlooked and underrated. Better late than never I guess but it's a shame he wasn't around to enjoy his moment.
Link is a real underground treasure. In my mind, if you dig Link you're okay by me. You're on my side. He had these awesome epochs of style, too. Started out the wild rockabilly, but always an outlier. And then, my favorite time, he really delved deep in outside folk music. He's got a trio of early 70s albums that are fantastic and rustic and beautiful. And then a little later, without ever abandoning or disparaging his earlier work, he went flat-out punk wildman rocker. He could have been in the Ramones. He had one lung! He lived in Marin County and played with Jerry Garcia. Massive talent. And then at the end of life went ex-pat in Denmark like any good jazzman would do. What a story, old crazy Link.
Link came to my little town this tour. I saw him and his wife duck into Nectars for dinner. I went in to say hi and he invited me to sit and chat while they ate. Wonderful guy. He signed my whole collection of Link vinyls. I think my ears bled that night.
Wow, he was that down to Earth huh? I remember getting chewed out for having the nerve of complementing a musician for their awesome performance. I wonder how many teeth I would have lost that day if I had asked for an autograph 🤔
I just found this guy on my travels looking for something to play on guitar and it doesn't happen often but I new there was something missing in my life and was link wray and his music genius fan forever
Link Wray was awesome. A real force of nature. I am so glad I got to see him perform live in concert 3x in my life. And with Robert Gordon once of the three!
I read an interview with - I think - the bass player from this video. Had lots of good things to say about Link. One story that really made me laugh was to do with the amps. Apparently back in the day the amps were less powerful and Link would turn everything up to the max. Over the years the amps got more powerful but Link would still insist on turning everything up to the max, but the rest of the band felt it was too much. Link couldn't be persuaded to turn things down so they modified the dials so they looked like they were at the max but were a little lower. RIP Link - only recently discovered you but you were amazing.
@Lwyse96❤️❤️🎸🎸😭😭😭Thank you for your Support for my Father ❤️🩹No Daddy having one Lung didn’t keep him down❤️🩹The doctors told my Father that he would never be able to sing or play a Guitar ever again❤️I’m very Proud to be his Daughter, he was ALWAYS there for me❤️❤️🎸🎸
Yep, Link Ray was a bad ass - I saw an article in the local rag when I lived in Denver, was sufficiently intrigued to go attend a concert at I believe was the bluebird theater - was not disappointed! Of all the nights to forget to bring my earplugs though, I had to go to the bathroom to get toilet paper to stuff into my ears… He had a long ponytail then, occasionally a woman would come out and twirl it for him as he played. One of the loudest - and best concerts I’ve ever attended! Rock in heaven, Link!❤👍🎸☮️
OMG, never thought about it. But..... Imagine if Link and Lemmy could have shared a stage...... It would have had to be an open-air arena..... As they would have blown the roof off the place.
It is one of the few things u can do for a lifetime. It is not about good or bad.play rumble all day you'll hit it then you're off for the rest of your life.
Saw the band in Aberdeen Scotland. Very few people turned up but Link and crew blasted through an amazing set. Link got off stage and came right up to the ten or so audience members and gave us an individual show one by one. Quite frightening if I am honest. His rhythm section where very good too. The bass player very nicely offered to ask Link to sign my Link L.P.s which he did.
When i first saw Pulp Fiction i said "What is that song Playing while Uma and John are talking in the restaurant"..Ace of Spades is a Baaaaaaad Cut... Totally Awesome!!!
another legend i can feel close to: Jim Thorpe, , Jason Mamoa, Keith Primeau, and Link Wray: American Indian, punk/rock/metal forefather; Real as America and life!! God Bless Link Wray!!!🎼🎚🎛🎸🎸🎶🏹🇺🇸
Thank'you Cherry Red Records. Thanks to the Master of guitar and all artists that contributed to the recording of the video. Enjoying it over and over any time that I am free from pain of work and bad news stress, shit happens every day ...then listen to Link Wray 's tunes It 's a medicine called Painkiller!
The bassist looks like C.J.Ramone ,indeed... and yeah, I came here because Poison Ivy Rorschach says Link Wray is the guitarist who influenced her the most...great innovative player and a whole hearted rock rebel...and I didn't know him! He must be remembered always!!!
Never surpassed is right. You can play faster, you can play more "all-over-the-place," but can you play better? Remains to be seen even in 2013. He set some serious records on sweetness, tone, vibrato and storytelling! We're all still trying to get where he was. :)
Umm, he should have been the very first inductee to the RRHOF, the dude has long deep roots in rock, he was the first to attack the guitar in such a way. He was Rock and Metal way before we knew what it was.

Had tickets to see the Linkster at the Fine Line in Minneapolis some years back. A group of west coast grunge turds called Jet City Fix opened. They used some cheesy pyrotechnics and started the ceiling on fire. End result? Evacuation, no show, and no more Fine Line for many months. Next thing I knew ol' Link was rumblin' with the angels.
Effing shame on the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame for waiting so long to turn something so wrong into something so right by inducting Link Wray into the Hall. To the Wray family ya'll know Link was and is a LEGEND without them.
'One of a Kind' - does not really do justice Link Wray's contribution to music - it is just 'out-there' evocative and free. I find him one of those musicians who manage to create so much through using so little by way of playing ability, yet he manages great virtuoso performances. Long live his melodic brute force unpretentious music.
Eres la hija del gran link wray, para mí después de Dios el , por el toco la guitarra y me copiado de algun truco es sumamente bueno que cuando lo escucho el mundo se para.
A lot of people don't know who Link Wray was. Thanks to Quinton Tarantino, Link Wray, Dick Dale and other forgotten musicians are getting rediscovered and by a much younger generation. There's a lot of bands now that are covering their songs and even writing their own modern surf and instrumental rock tunes.
The Cramps did a stonker of a version of this riff too! i can't quite remember what they called it, but was on one of their two main 70's albums i think?

WE OPENED FOR THIS CAT.. WHAT A F'N BLAST!!
what an incredible chance. congrats. link is up there with the untouchables
I am a beginner guitar player and will never be good. But Rumble has been the first song I tried to learn
Friend never give up the guitar ..no about being good or bad if what you can create with music
+Fabio Punk brave man!
It is one of the few things u can do for a lifetime. It is not about good or bad.play rumble all day you'll hit it then you're off for the rest of your life.
Fabio Punk Anyone can play Rumble. It's just powerchords. Power chords were designed for people who don't want to learn how to play guitar.
mmmm ... obviously you do not know what you are talking about.

We saw Link play at Winterland in 1974. He was a forerunner of rock, and we say ...thanks man...you were a cog in the wheel of change
I’m waiting for the “if you like to gamble I tell you I’m your man “
Link made Cool before anyone..
Glad to say I saw him live in NYC back in the 80s. Great show !
Awesome rendition from Mr Link Wray! The rhythm section are great too!
Thanks, I'll tell Rob (the drummer), he plays in the Morlocks now... and we sometimes get together.
Incredible, a forever God of Sound!

One of the pioneers of the electric guitar 🎸
a memorable guitar legend. R.ip Link Wray.
I saw this tour at Manchester Academy and this brought back great memories of a fantastic (and very loud) show.
I saw him on this tour in a small club in Newport S Wales. The club was fairly small and he was loud.
Will Byers shreddin' that bass
Me thinks, it's a Ramone
The beginning of all that came after
Link Wray, l'incredible...
Haha, my friends Robbie on drums and Eric on bass, great stuff !
For a split second I thought that was Johnny Ramone on bass. lol
When i first saw Pulp Fiction i said "What is that song Playing while Uma and John are talking in the restaurant"..Ace of Spades is a Baaaaaaad Cut... Totally Awesome!!!
Link's tone is my idea of what a guitar should like like. My favourite guitarist. That violin bass sounded thick too. He was just the coolest.
very well................................................................
another legend i can feel close to: Jim Thorpe, , Jason Mamoa, Keith Primeau, and Link Wray: American Indian, punk/rock/metal forefather; Real as America and life!! God Bless Link Wray!!!🎼🎚🎛🎸🎸🎶🏹🇺🇸
He was only a little tiny bit Indian like a lot of southerners who claim that.
He was the best though!
Look at his brothers...
He was the man🎸🎛️🎸🤯He will always be admired and respected by his piers and everyone that loved his musical guitar playing!!!👍🤟🤙

Thank you, God, for giving the world Mr Link Wray!!!! They thought they knew what cool was until he picked up the guitar.
Link Wray rocked hippy freak stronghold Inn of the Beginning ( Cotati, Ca.) more than once in the early/mid 70’s
He was friends w John Cippolina.
Thank you
he my fave music man yep
Link was one of the coolest musicians ever. Sad that he's not more widely known.
He came a long way since his days as a clean-cut rock n' roller in the 1950s.
He was never clean cut. Rumble was banned in the 50s!
