"I'll bet Hendrix listened to this album in his youth. It blew me away. This man had a style that makes you wonder how many famous guitar greats were influenced by this album. I've never heard more interesting, lightning fast, or rockin' guitar playing. All packed into neat little 3 minute songs."

"Hey, I've never heard an album by Wammack, but I've heard him live on dozens of occasions. He still is quite good. He tends to cover stuff now as oppose to playing his old songs. He lives in Muscle Shoals Alabama now and he plays at the W.C. Handy Festival annually and other musical gatherings. He is a guitar pioneer in my view. He should have been lead guitar for some major band, but never really got a lucky break as a soloist. His son "Monkey" had some success too. Both of which recorded at the legendary Fame Recording Studio."

Kick Ass Guitar !!!!

"When producer Roland Janes sent a copy of Scratchy to Chet Atkins, Chet sent it back with a note 'This scares me. I pass.' Here's the original version of Scratchy and 20 other incredible Chet-scaring tracks including Night Train, Scratchy, Karate Time, Tech-Nically Speaking, Distortion Part 2, Hideaway, Up-Set and Fire Fly. A must for all Rock & Roll guitarists !"
