"We finally add Link Wray to our successful Rocks! series! On a total of 34 single tracks from the years 1958 to 1966 we deliver his greatest rockers from his recordings for Cadence, Cameo, Epic, Mala, Rumble and Swan in the best possible quality. Since we were able to license recordings from various record companies for this compilation, Rocks! differs significantly from the cheap scrap on the market. 36-page booklet, 34 tracks. The CD contains his rare vocal tracks 'Ain't That Lovin' You Baby' and 'Mary Ann'. As a bonus: songs released under the name of his brother Vernon Wray (aka Ray Vernon) with Link Wray on guitar! Detailed liner notes by blues and rock 'n' roll expert Bill Dahl from Chicago."

Link Wray, live at My Father's Place, Roslyn on June 22nd, 1979. Link Wray's legacy lies in the power chord that inspired such luminaries as Pete Townshend, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Ray Davies, Jeff Beck, and Jimi Hendrix. Ground-breaking hits ("Rumble", "Rawhide", "Jack The Ripper", and "Ace Of Spades") make a welcome return in Wray's second coming in the 1970s. Wray's incendiary distortion and unorthodox techniques gave way to the Sonics, Wailers, and The Cramps, iconic names that owe much to their idol. Wray's resurgence in the 1970s invited new listeners and made new fans across Europe and the USA where he continued to "rumble" in his unique and immaculate style. Klondike present the entire WLIR-FM broadcast of Link Wray, live from My Father's Place, Roslyn, New York on June 22nd, 1979. Professionally remastered original FM broadcast with expansive liners and rare archival photos.
