Link Wray – Link Sings Elvis (“10)

From ‘Rumble’ onwards, Link Wray was known for his terminal, kerrang-style guitar instrumentals as featured in many a movie. But he was also a fine singer and an enormous Elvis fan, as shown on these 90s recordings made for Ace, including the previously unissued ‘That’s When Your Heartaches Begin’. The 10-inch album format is ideal for this and no prizes for guessing the influence for the cover design. Note Link’s T-shirt as well – not photoshopped in, but worn on the day.
