Description
For many a year, you’ve salivated at the thought of all the raw-hided, fuzz-fueled wonders by Link Wray locked away in the Epic Records vaults. Well, salivate no more! Slinky! The Epic Sessions, a deluxe double-whammy 2 CD set from Link Wray and the Wraymen—brother Doug on drums, Shorty Horton on bass, and brother Vernon on rhythm guitar and piano—captures their complete Epic recordings and some of the raunchiest guitar ever commited to tape! Recorded between late 1958 and early ‘61, our master-tape motherlode features 46 cuts—a whopping 16 previously unissued—including sensational single-sides, album cuts and alternate takes, all with riffs as sharp as a switchblade!
