The Outsider has been all about commitment: From Walter's desire to create songs that speak to the soul as well as the mind, the producer (John Porter), who added his musical experience creating a partnership in finding the best possible expression for Walter's intentions, to the musicians who each in their own expert way added a unique and strong statement - there has been a unique sense of team work throughout, filling Walter with a thankfulness to be able to surround himself with people of so much talent. Walter Trout is a blues guitarist, singer and songwriter of his own band.

Walter Trout At The Top Of His Game, July 18, 2008
By Terry
Walter Trout has given us an outstanding collection of 13 original songs
showcasing his ample song-writing, vocal, and guitar-playing talents. From the
opening notes of "Welcome To The Human Race" to the final chords of the title
track, Walter simply sounds great here. His tone, his guitar-playing precision,
the song hooks ... here is Walter Trout at the top of his game. To heck with
trying to "label" his music as blues, rock, bluesrock, or even "Fred" ....
whatever it is sounds absolutely wonderful and makes me want to hear more of it.
The New Jersey born Trout has always been one of the best guitar slingers on the
planet but here he gives us more than just supersonic riffs. Walters music is
simply "good stuff". Its finally time to get the word out in these United States
of America. Walter Trout deserves a listen. His new CD, "The Outsider" gives us
more than enough reason.
