Link Wray may not have the household name recognition of your Beyoncés or Adeles, but make no mistake, this man is an absolute legend in the world of rock'n'roll.
And his album "Sings and Plays Guitar" only solidifies his status as a true pioneer of the genre.
From the first strum of his guitar, Wray transports you to a different time, a time when rock was raw and unadulterated, when it was all about the music and nothing else.
His gritty vocals add a layer of authenticity to each track, as if he's lived every word he sings.
The album kicks off with the infectious "Rumble," a song that still manages to get toes tapping and heads nodding over 60 years since its release.
Wray's guitar playing is nothing short of mesmerising, effortlessly blending elements of blues, rock, and country to create a sound that is uniquely his own.
Tracks like "Raw-Hide" and "Jack the Ripper" showcase Wray's versatility as a musician, with his playing veering from delicate and haunting to raw and powerful in the blink of an eye.
It's this unpredictability that keeps listeners on their toes, never quite sure what to expect next.
In a world full of manufactured pop stars and cookie-cutter hits, Link Wray is a breath of fresh air.
"Sings and Plays Guitar" is a reminder of what true rock'n'roll is all about – passion, grit, and a whole lot of heart.
Long live the king.
