PHILLIP WALKER "GOING BACK HOME" Source: Leicesterbangs.co.uk Date: 02/2007 Writer: Paul C.

This is a back to the roots album. Phillip Walker has been around a long time, and is acknowledged as an influence by Robert Cray. The album has 13 tracks, mainly covers but with three songs written by the album’s producer, Randy Chortkoff. The covers include songs by Ray Charles, Lightnin’ Hopkins, Lowell Fulson and Percy Mayfield. This is a good, solid, unpretentious, keep-it-simple album of 12 bar blues played by people who know what they’re doing. Lead guitar, harp, piano and rhythm guitar play off each nicely. The voice sometimes sounds a bit elderly, but full of character. www.deltagrooveproductions.com
