Product Description
Album Description
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.

In the presence of greatness, July 24 2008
By Kai Mayne - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Outsider (Audio CD)
I saw Walter on July 22, 2008 in Davenport, IA and he is outstanding. I bought this CD there and have been listening to it over and over. Just love it.His show is fantastic and for the first time in my life I said during one of his songs "I feel like I am in the presence of greatness!" He is that good.
Have three other CD's and I love them all. Can't believe the guy who said they were all the same. There some similarities but enough differences to really enjoy.
Blues On! Kai Mayne

Walter Trout At The Top Of His Game, July 18 2008
By Jon T. Moody - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Outsider (Audio CD)
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. Walter's music is simply "good stuff". It's 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.

Walters best album for a very long time, July 13 2008
By Paul Watson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Outsider (Audio CD)
I have been a Trout fan since I first heard him in 1990 and heard his Life in the Jungle CD. The next few albums all had their moments, but after a while, I found there to be a lot of inconsistancy of his songs and the fact that a lot of his guitar solos, although extremely gifted, sounded the same. However, Walter has returned with what I believe to be his best album - PERIOD! I really got into his contrasting styles and moods on this one, and some sorely needed 12 bar blues in there. I never liked Walters full on love songs, and to me, the love song on offer here "A matter of the heart" is the only weak track on the album. Keep it all Blues Rock mate. Maybe a full album of dedicated love songs and duets with females in different styles would work. I am so relieved this album has delivered and highly recommend you give it a spin.
Listmania!
