Yes! Robert Gordon and Link Wray did an album together. One of my favorite albums of all time.

Gordon also had a hit with “Red Hot” (My gal is red hot, your gal ain’t doodle-squat).

Huh, you are correct. [I had this one on vinyl, then I had a cd with both albums.](https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fm.media-amazon.com%2Fimages%2FI%2F915KA4m%2ByiL._SS500_.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FRed-Hot%2Fdp%2FB0184WQ676&tbnid=YQH79dREBPtLSM&vet=1&docid=WcJRVEqgX00ceM&w=500&h=500&hl=en-us&source=sh%2Fx%2Fim)
