Robert Gordon's 1977/'78 LPs with the legendary Link Wray weren't just a two-man DC-area rockabilly revival, they forged something new from the ashes of rockabilly. It wasn't revivalism to either of them-it was new music with all the energy and edginess of new music, rooted in rockabilly's timeless truths.
This was the age of Punk and New Wave, and Robert's music not only made believers of those who didn't think any great records had been made since 1957, but made converts of kids who were grooving to Blondie, the Ramones, and the other big acts of the time.
