Live Music In German Television

Back in 1978 a collaboration between Link Wray and Robert Gordon was shown on TV. Robert Gordon got his first merits as a member of the punk rock bank Tuff Darts showed up in the 70's at CBGB's. Years later he turned into rockabilly and old school Rock 'n' Roll and made a collaboration with the legendary guitar player Link Wray who is famous for it is effective work on guitar sound. This is a footage I remember darkly seeing it the first time. Right now I think it is a classic collaboration that still works decades later.

Robert Gorden is an American rockabilly musician who played in other genres like rock 'n' roll, punk rock and alternative rock as well. After playing in a local band that was influenced by Gene Vincent and Eddie Cochran he joined the punk band Tuff Darts in the middle of the 1970s. You can hear them on the compilation Live at the CBGB's. In the 80s he turned to rock 'n' roll again and started a collaboration with two great guitar players: Link Wray and Chris Spedding.
