Phillip Walker has been recording and performing
the blues since the 1950’s. As a second cousin
to “Gatemouth” Brown and a young fan
of T-Bone Walker his style developed at home in
Texas and while touring or backing blues artists
such as Roscoe Gordon, Clifton Chenier, Johnny Shines
and Eddie Taylor. Blues artist Rusty Zinn lends
his masterful guitar playing to a few tunes and
really compliments Phillip Walker’s style
and sound a lot. This disc has a wonderful mix of
styles and classic songs as well as catchy new originals
by Phillip and Delta Groove producer Randy Chortkoff.
I’d like to recognize Delta Groove Productions
for the wonderful work they are doing promoting
and enhancing the sound of many great blues musicians
with each new release.
I give this disc 4.5 out of 5 on my STLBluesometer!
