Link Wray may not be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, proper, but he is in the Library of Congress.

And I find it odd that we put British groups like the Who in our LoC. At least there was proper recognition of Winston Churchhill and the threat of Communism.

“Rock and Roll Hall of Fame” is a sham anyway.

+11 for Link Wray. I play Rumble all the time when I want to just crank the guitar and hear sustain. Very underated and way ahead of his time in terms of electric guitar usage and distortion.
