Pick of the Week
“Rumble”, Link Wray and His Ray Men (1958)
Jimmie Page said he was a major influence and studied this innovators guitar riffs. So did Neil Young, Pete Townshend and many others. Raising the bar from Chuck Berry, he took attitude, made his fingers move, which made the strings move on his guitar, and the attitude came out the amplifier - new and alive to the world. Why does this song hit you like it does?
