Link Wray - Link Wray (1971)


Hey people! Here is a crackly treat I picked up at this weekend's boot sale.
Link Wray's eponymous comeback LP from 1971 was recorded in a homemade 3 track studio in a disused chicken shack on the family Farm in Maryland.
The loose limbed country funk sound of this album is an entirely different prospect to his earlier, rowdy rock instrumentals, but its just as tasty as you will hear after a little compare and contrast:



Tracklist:

01    La De Da         
02    Take Me Home Jesus         
03    Juke Box Mama         
04    Rise And Fall Of Jimmy Stokes        
05    Fallin' Rain         
06    Fire And Brimstone         
07    Ice People        
08    God Out West         
09    Crowbar         
10    Black River Swamp         
11    Tail Dragger

Get it HERE.

Hi Fosimi,
I'm afraid I have no Funmi Adams' music to share but I will look out for him.
As for the Ebenezer Obey album, I will dig out the files and reup as soon as I can so please keep checking back.
Cheers!
