"Goodtime Joe" by Link Wray. I can't find it anywhere. It's a crime that album with Goodtime Joe,Rocket 88,and Backwoods Preacher Man hasn't been put back into production.
If you ain't heard Link Wray play Goodtime Joe,you ain't heard rock and roll guitar.

Yeah,that's the man. If you ever get a chance to buy his 1973 Polydor album that is titled,"Link Wray Rumble",buy it! I think it went out of print in 74,and has never been re-released. I finally wore out my second copy,and the only new one I could find was in Germany,and I had to pay 130 bucks for the damn thing! If you had any idea how cheap I am,that would really mean something to you. I never paid even $20 for a album before or since.
BTW,seems like he put out a couple of albums with "Rumble" in the title because it was his best known hit. If it doesn't have Goodtime Joe,Backwood Preacher Man,or Rocket 88 on it,it's not the right one.

Hi, pete. ever heard of GEMM before? found this nice little 1/1/74 Polydor pressing, release no. PD 6025 on there for $22, and the dealer is in the U.S. there was another one for $18 in France. they have almost anything you can think of listed on there, and lots of classic vinyl. I picked up a complete cd collection of "The Sensational Alex Harvey Band", along with 'Framed' and a few others with no problems. was able to get them all through their approved dealers and the shipping wasn't much on ones that came from europe.
No,but I have it bookmarked now. They have two Polydor LP's listed by Wray with the right title,but don't list the song titles. Rumble was the title of Wray's biggest single,so there are a couple of different albums with that in the title. That makes it confusing if the song titles aren't listed. One LP for sale is new and less than 30 bucks,and the other one is used and 217 bucks. That leads me to believe they are different LP's.
