my red rooster. Tuk

This is a live performance in 1998 in Tiel (Holland) outside in front of a pub. The song is called Born to be wild. The bonus on this track are the sound of Bikes roaring in the background. It gave the performance a extra dimension! We where all amazed when whe heard them doing this! Loved it

Another side from The Link playing some ska music and it's that we didn't like the army and boys of teir age around 18 weren't drafted anymore. I was the only one who had served and hated it to!

Another tune from that period I wrote this one with the Basplayer and this time in English because we wanted quality tunes and tought that dutch wasn't suitable for our style of music.

A punksong about the fact we didn't care for anybody so we said fuck You all in Dutch. We where young and tought we where tough guys playing in a band living the rockdream of every adolescent. Sex drugs and good old Rock & Roll.

This a song called treathend from a periode where we song anti-War songs and tought that our music would chanche the world. A time of reams and hope and waiting for that big chanche. great bandmembers like Vincent Pennings/ percussion and vocals. hans van Meurs/ bas. Pieter bast/drums. Bertil van Beeugen/ slaggitaar and Me on sologuitar. The first Basplayer Patrick scot wrote the song on a piano. It was the first song we made together.

These are two own songs combined. They where recorded in 1981 with a Philips mono cassetterecorder and transformed to mp3's Great clear sound. You can hear my admiration for Carlos Santana and This was a attempt to immitate the master. I was 23 at that time and have grown as a musician!But I love this stuff. real simpel but played with passion!

This is filmed in Engelen a small village near my hometown. It was filmed on VHS in the year 1998. second time live for a audience of 150 people. Loved the performance. We played wll and had a lott of fun.!

This is my favorites song to play. I wrote it myself but the band made it sound good! The title is Sometimes.
