Some Kinda Nut

Pete Townshend has been quoted as saying:  “He is the king.  If it hadn’t been for Link Wray and ‘Rumble’, I would have never picked up a guitar.”  More recently, concerning another Link Wray classic, Dan Auerbach of the Black Keys said:  “I would listen to ‘Some Kinda Nut’, over and over.  It sounded like he was strangling the guitar – like it was screaming for help.”
