Perfect Sound Forever: Link Wray tribute BE WILD, NOT EVIL: THE LINK WRAY STORY Link Wray, bassist Ellwood Brown and the band hearse, mid sixties. 'If anything was gonna go down, we were cocked and locked,' said Brown. 'Armed to the teeth.' (photo courtesy Ellwood Brown) A tribute by Jimmy McDonough © 2006 (Part 4 of 6) MR. GUITAR Let us now praise Swan-era Link.

Where to begin, the pleasures are so many. The urbane, ultra-cool bounce of 'The Black Widow,' with its jazzy high-hat intro, leading into a roll on the snare as the snappy 'What I'd Say?' Organ kicks in. The slow grind of 'Good Rockin' Tonight,' Link's supreme take on Elvis. The forlorn ‘lone cowboy on his midnight ride' organ on 'Cross Ties'. Link's crazy version of the 'Batman' theme, with its opening ‘scroink!'

A few more, I can't stop: On 'Deuces Wild,' Wray's rubbery guitar bounces off the walls like Plastic Man. Doug's great double-tracked drums: toms, a chugging train beat on the snare, a great tribal drum break, cymbals going whole time. So loose, but the groove's never lost. Said Link, 'Was Doug a big part of my sound? Oh, he was the sound.

I played the wild guitar, but he was the beat, man. He was amazing. He'd beat with the butt end of the sticks just as hard as he could and his foot would be flying. I don't know how he got the technique for his foot, ‘cause his foot's so heavy--he never went to drum school, took lessons. Driverpack Solution 2015 Iso Torrent - Airbus Xtreme Prolog Inc.. there.

Doug understood me more than anybody. He loved me. Football Manager 2012 Patch 12.0.4 more. ' Wray's bird-on-a-bum-trip soundtrack 'Run, Chicken Run' was invented on the spot at a Cornell University frat show. Recalled Link, 'They were throwin' beer all over me, all over themselves.
