Well, that Ike disc is a lot to take in all at once, but there are some smokin' tracks on it, and the lesser tracks aren't bad either.
As far as Link Wray goes, he did really get an evil guitar tone early in the game. Very distinctive, so kudos to him. The preponderance of the tracks on the Rumble! The Best of Link Wray discs are instrumental, which is what I was looking for.
Looking back on this thread, I realize I've looking for more of a pre-psych thing too. I'm using this as walk-in/background music at a middle school, and anything good ol' psych, I think will prove more a distraction.
Since I picked up The Big Box of Ventures I've been trying to find more stuff of similar vintage, just so the Ventures won't swamp my playlists.

Danny Kirwan era Fleetwood Mac has many but "Earl Gray" and "Sunny Side of Heaven" come to mind. "Earl Grey" is almost proto-Hackett.
I can link the amazon page.
