Together with the legendary Link Wray, Robert Gordon released two LPs on Private Stock in 1977/78. These records are considered the best of the rockabilly revival. With them, something completely new emerged from the ashes of rockabilly. There is no trace of dreary revival on either production. It was new music with all its inherent energy and courage to take on new things, while being firmly rooted in the timeless truth of rockabilly. For the sessions on the second LP, Bruce Springsteen contributed Fire, a song he had written for Elvis. He also played piano on these sessions. It was the age of punk and new wave. Robert's music not only convinced those to the contrary, for whom no good records were made after 1957. Young people who had previously grooved to the sounds of Blondie, the Ramones or other big names of the day suddenly became collectors. Great music creates that kind of thing! Each of the two Robert Gordon-Link Wray LPs contains a bonus track.
Robert Gordon's 1977/'78 PRIVATE STOCK LPs with the legendary Link Wray were the best rockabilly revival records because they created 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. And during the sessions for the second LP, Bruce Springsteen contributed a song, Fire, that he'd written for Elvis. He played piano on the session, too. 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. Great music will do that! Both Robert Gordon & Link Wray LPs contain bonus songs.
