Rumble

"Rumble" is an instrumental song released in 1958 by American guitarist Link Wray and his band, the Wraymen. The song became an instant hit, reaching number 16 on the U.S. pop charts, despite being temporarily banned by some radio stations for fear of inciting violence.1

Link Wray (1929–2005) was a pioneering guitarist known for his raw electric guitar sound, which heavily influenced rock and roll, heavy metal, and punk music. He is often credited with introducing the power chord and was among the first guitarists to experiment with distortion and fuzz-tone effects. "Rumble" is considered a landmark in instrumental rock music and has been featured in films such as Pulp Fiction and Independence Day.12
