Dance Contest - Link Wray
1958 Fast, fierce instrumental rock for the dance floor
Early Link Wray at his most kinetic, riding a driving beat with guitar lines that feel sharp and urgent.
Link Wray at Glen Echo Park, 1965

Born on this day: undisputed pioneering maestro of the ominous twangy rockabilly instrumental that made 1950s juvenile delinquents reach for their switchblades and set the groundwork for punk and heavy metal, menacing guitarist – and perennial Lobotomy Room favourite - Link Wray (Fred Lincoln Wray Jr, 2 May 1929 – 5 November 2005). That quiff! Those sideburns! Those shades! That sneer! The Hillbilly Wolf’s greatest tracks still retain their sleazy urgency all these decades later. My favourites will always include 1958 classic “Rumble” (of course!), “Deuces Wild”, “Jack the Ripper”, “Ace of Spades”, “The Shadow Knows”, “Run Chicken Run” and "The Swag" (borrowed by John Waters for the opening credits of Pink Flamingos (1972)). Pictured: Wray performing at the Whisky Club, photographed by Donna Santisi, 1977.
Link Wray and The Wraymen - Raw-Hide (1959) Fred Lincoln Wray Jr. (Link Wray) / Milt Grant * from: "Raw-Hide" / "Dixie-Doodle" (Single) "Link Wray & The Wraymen" (LP)
*Milt Grant did not actually co-write "Raw-Hide" or "Rumble". His songwriting credits were a common form of "payola" or a business arrangement given in exchange for his promotion of Link Wray's music. (Milt Grant was a prominent Washington D.C. area disc jockey) - Google AI
