JACK THE RIPPER

< previous next >

(Milt Cooper/Link Wray)
(o):Link Wray & The Ray Men (1961)label: Rumble
 On his own label. A hit on Swan in '63. Used effectively in film Breathless (with Richard Gere) during a car pursuit. Recorded with the amp at the foot of the hotel staircase for maximum echo effect. Link's riffs inspired numerous metal guitarists.
(c):Surfaris (1963) , Milkshakes (1983) [as The Yorkshire Ripper], Mighty Caesars (1986) , Southern Culture On The Skids (1994) , Dirty Hands (1995) , Surftones (2000) [as Jack The Dripper], Straitjackets (2004) ,
 
Not to be confused neither with Nino Tempo's Jack The Ripper ('60) from the film of the same name, nor with the one by Screaming Lord Sutch ('63), covered by Casey Jones & The Governors (hit in Germany in '65) and by The Fuzztones ('93).
