Quite simply, Link Wray invented the power chord, the major modus operandi of modern rock guitarists. Listen to any of the tracks he recorded between that landmark instrumental in 1958… Read more in Amazon's Link Wray Store

Editorial Reviews

The King of the Wild Guitar rips through a five-decade career-spanning 25 cuts of extreme distortion. Not for the faint hearted.

This CD replaces the extremely popular Ace UK title "The Original Rumble", which is now deleted. This is the finest all-instrumental Link CD available.

No vocal filler, just the guitar sound that launched a thousand riffs, and all remastered. It's quite brilliant.

5.0 out of 5 stars Link Wray King Of The Wild Guitar, December 1, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: King of the Wild Guitar (Audio CD)
King Of The Wild Guitar I think is one of the best collections of kick-ass Link Wray rock & roll guitar playing! This whole album is great!This is the be all, end all, of gut-driving,heart-pounding, guitar! Classic Link Wray! If you love Link Wray or never heard of him before, and want to find 'the' album that really defines Link's raw, rock'n roll energy, get this album!
