Shoulda been "Twongy" guitar if you ask me. That big bold sound, all that reverb, that weight on each note, that's a TWONG, big and round. "Twangy" makes it sound a little bit country and this is very much rock and fuckin roll.
From that Yakety Sax Sax to that fabulous Fabulous Wailers background yelping, to that big Dick Dale surf ride, to that no-rush Link Wray spacing, this is a grand tour of kickass old-school instrumental guitar sounds. The lack of focus, lack of any particular mood this exactly suits, keeps this out of legendary territory as an album, but if you don't mind a loose fit this makes a fascinating headphone listen and radical background music for any time hot and cool besides 4/5
