Topic: Walter Trout

He has a new one out and Mascot was gracious enough to send me a listen, I think it's great but then am probably just a little biased

Wow! That was spectacular. Finally someone who is willing to slow down a little and let the guitar talk in a language we can understand. I couldn't find this CD on Amazon, when is it going to be released?

It is somewhat ironic you say that because Walter has said in interviews he gets a lot of yak from the blues purists that he plays too many notes too fast !

And this has often been my opinion as well. Not just that he plays too fast but it is 'eclectic' fast... a cross between Poppa Chubby and Chris Duarte. Sort of wild fast... It never really 'spoke' to me the way that clip of him slowing down did. I sure hope the rest of the album is like that. As someone quite a while back once said, "Now that we can all play fast lets see who can play good."

Besides if I want fast there's always Eric Steckel...
