79

One Of Our Deleted Albums Series

Link Wray (1929-2005) was a very influential guitarist who first recorded in the 1950's. He is #45 on Rolling Stone's list of 100 Most Influential Guitarists: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/mu...

Link Wray's Bullshot album was released in 1979 on Passport Records, catalogue number 9167-9836. Unfortunately the album had limited commercial success and was deleted from the Passport Records catalogue in the 1980's.

To my knowledge this album has never been released on CD and is currently unavailable in any format.

The audio here was taken from a 1979 Canadian pressing of the original Passport Records vinyl LP.
