When this album was originally cut in 1992 Phillip Walker was already a veteran. His career spanned the early days with Clifton Chenier in Texas and Louisiana, a long stint in California and some seminal records in the 1970's with Bruce Bromberg. This CD was the start of his 'grand old man' phase. Backed by a superb band of musicians who had honed their skills on the road, Phillip's background, culture and musical experience just oozes out into the music. For the new mix, add an engineer who's a genius at working on archive material to make something fresh. Otis Grand made three other 'and Otis Grand' albums for JSP - Guitar Shorty, Joe Houston and Joe Louis Walker. Arguably, none have made a better album. Originally this album was greeted as simply great. Now it sounds like a modern masterpiece.
