Are you guys playing out of key intentionally or what?? This sounds totally nutso. I'm all for Link Wray covers but... get the bass in the same key as the guitar!

Redfeather, you are right. I only listened to a little bit of it, but some notes were wrong. I wasn't sure if it was creative license or not. Perhaps the OP will weigh in.

Hey thanks for this. Yes when you have an imaginary deadline in your head to release music, stuff like this happens. I blame my love for jazz and dissonance. Lol Even though I like how it sounded we decided to re-record the song because we can’t do Link Wray like that .

here is the new version.

Now we're talkin'! Sounds great, guys. I think both Link and Jack would be proud to have this associated with their names!

The guitar sound on this is especially good. Reverb lends itself well to Link's music, I think. As far as I can recall, there's only one song he used it on, though. Cross Ties.

Thank you! yes Cross Ties is such a great song. I love his song called "Son of Rumble". I only discovered it a few years ago from I guess a re released single but its raw vibe along with his guitar sound is great. Such classic songs.
