RAWHIDE
This release is for hardcore Link Wray collectors only. I'm afraid that there is nothing new here, it's a repackage of a small selection of Link's Epic material.
Released by Collectables Records, this one is available for under $10. What do you get for your money? Unfortunately not much.
This release has no liner notes, no photographs, nothing but ads for other Collectables artist releases inside the CD. Even a songwriter's credit or two is incorrect. They even forgot to print Link's name and the title of this release on one of the CD spines.
Compare this to SLINKY - another Epic collection. For another $15-$20 investment, you get 35 additional cuts and a great booklet with detailed liner notes, interview quotes and photographs. You decide.
On a high note, this release does have two classic Link vocal tracks.
