Description

Robert Walter got his start in the early-'90s as one of the founding members of the Greyboy Allstars, a popular band on the then-fledgling groove circuit that also featured saxophonist Karl Denson. After Greyboy broke up, Walter struck out on his own in 1998 by leading the 20th Congress, which gained favorable notices on 2000's Money Shot. Walter still keeps the Congress in session, but this time out he opted to work with the veteran crew of Harvey Mason, Phil Upchurch, Red Holloway, and Chuck Rainey, all players who were there when the funk hit the jazz fan back in the '60s. The session has a nice loose feel to it where we can even hear the players hooting and hollering on "Bakery Blues." Backed by this stellar crew, Walter rips through some burnin' keyboard solos, stepping aside to let other guys get some. Fans will recognize a few tunes from the Congress songbook, but this is definitely an album of new music, with "2% Body Fat" being an absolute killer opener. --Tad Hendrickson

  • The return of hypercolor

    Ah, why is it that the trends that recycle are never the right ones for me? I've been catching up on Season One of Mad Men and coveting the full skirts, nipped waists and va-va-voom silhouettes of the late 50s and early 60s. But instead, the latest clothing craze to make a reappearance hails only from the early 90s (isn't there a rule that you have to wait at least two decades before bringing ba...

  • Stereos

    There are a lot of factors involved in buying a stereo system and if you’re new to the terminology, shopping can become frustrating very quickly. Hopefully this guide will help you to understand these terms and to decide what stereo system is right for you.
