Featuring his million-sellers Rumble and Raw-Hide, plus regional hits like Comanche, Lillian and Slinky.
There's also the original version of Jack The Ripper which would become a hit following its reissue in 1963, his debut 45 I Sez Baby/Johnny Bom Bonny, and the unissued Hillbilly Wolf.
Link Wray's records have appeared in iconic movies such as Pulp Fiction, Breathless, Independence Day, Pink Flamingos, Roadracers, Desperado, Blow, Streets Of Fire and 12 Monkeys.
