Rock (Instrumental)
"Wild Turkey Surprise" is an excellent hard rockin' instro with lots of that wonderful Huevos Rancheros edge, and ample drive. It's heavy, thunderous, sustained, driven, whammified, and more than a little cool. It's a chunky choogglin' monster, like a Link Wray daydream. Excellent!
Surf Rock (Instrumental)
This version of Dick Dale's "The Wedge" is hard drivin', and features a morphed bridge that is both unsettling and sets it apart. A ton of edge, and a really loud sound. The picking is intense, as is the thunder beneath.
