There are a couple of really great Robert Gordon albums he played on as well....

See if you can find them...... Robert Gordon with Link Wray & Fresh Fish Special

I went to see Robert in New York years ago hoping that Link would be with him. Alsa, it was Chris Spedding.... Which was cool, as he is another one of my heroes!

Boo! :yrck

Another disciple of Link Wray was Davy Allan of Davy Allan and the Arrows. You might remember him as the guy who did all those cool fuzz box instrumentals for those American International biker flicks in the 60's.

Those Robert Gordon albums were RAWKIN!!!! "The Way I Walk", "My Gal Is Red Hot", "Five Days", totally timeless!

Chris Spedding was no slouch either. I remember when he teamed up with The Vibrators for the song "Pogo Dancing". I used to have that on 45.
