750.0. "Link Wray " by SOURCE::ZAPPIA (punk rock polly) Fri Feb 28 1992 17:17

    	Tom (Parmenter, if you're out there or anyone) could you please 
    enter some form of that little blurb you mailed me on Link Wray?  
    
    	I checked some of my clumpsy ency. and they only had some vauge 
    references, the books I have don't really cover this period.  There 
    may or may not be much interest here but I'm curious to know more 
    about them.  Seems a might silly now but like I said going back is 
    just as important as going forward.
    
    Thanks,
    - Jim
