Days From Death: The Walter Trout Interview

This is incredible. I want you all to know that you are doing amazing work at Blues Rock Review. This is the best content I've found anywhere on blues rock, which I am researching fairly constantly as the editor and head writer of Blues Notes for the Blues Society of Omaha. You are knocking it out of the park on a regular basis, and I appreciate your work.

Too Much Alcohol-------------- Rory Gallagher

Live on walter guitar legend 😮

I appreciate Mr. Walter Trout sharing his stage with me. He truly is a leader recognizing talent and is selfless in support of talented artists working to have a career. God bless him ❤

He's a great interviewer. Asked great questions and let Walter do most of the talking. Many thumbs up. I saw a young Jake Kershaw sit in with Walter Trout and his son trading licks.
Great mentoring.

I found Walter through John Mayall and have followed his career ever since so thanks for this great interview, he seems a very genuine and humble guy.
RIP John Mayall.

What a cool guy...a true superstar!

So pleased he's still with us. Long live the great, Walter Trout!

I recognize the New Jersey/Philly accent a mile away. lol Rock on!

Very moved by Walter. I went into V.A hospital rehab that was supposed to be for 30 days.i had cirrhosis of the liver and was having seizures so they kept me for 7 months. I came out and got into recovery and became a substance abuse counselor with 40 years sobriety. Nice thing about life is we can start over anytime.

Yes you think you know what the bottom is when your drinking
When you stop you start to know

I caught Walter at the Blues Cellar, fifteen or twenty years back. 👍

wonderful!

Great stuff, Walter on of the best men and not to bad a blues man.

Walters advice is honest and straight from the heart. It is something he has always felt whether he had expressed it or not, as to what makes a great guitar player. He is a true inspiration to everyone. As he mentioned upcoming Blues players, I wonder if he has ever heard of Eric Steckel, Virgil and the Accelerators, Jay Jesse Johnson, Davy Knowles, Jay Gordon, Lance Lopez, Martin Andersen (Blindstone) and Eric Gales. These are some of the greatest, brilliant, unknown Blues guitarist alive today. It's a shame they are mostly all unknown to the public.

Love and best wishes to Walter and his amazing wife

Thanks. Great ❤unreal💥

He's the most underrated player I could ever think of

Walter one of the best bluesmen as well songwriters ever😂

Great interview. Walter, I am going to buy some of your music. You are a class act, thank you.

I used to see Walter live every week when I lived in Southern California back in the 90's. I got to know him quite well, and regarded Jimmy Trapp(RIP) as a friend too. Walter called my name out in the middle of three different concerts when I saw him in Europe, and remains one of the most entertaining and talented live performers I have ever had the pleasure of watching. Thank God you're still with us, Walter...🙏

Would love to see marcus king on wicked young talent!

I am seeing Walter this Friday in Newcastle Uk. He’s been an inspiration for me since 2019 when I started suffering intestinal failure after 35 years of chronic Crohn’s disease. I spent weeks in hospital back in 2019 then last April i sprang another leak internally and developed sepsis and sepsis in my thigh when the contents of my pelvic cavity leaked into my right thigh. I was in hospital again for 2 months. I am fed 14 hours a day via an infusion directly into my bloodstream as I don’t have enough gut left to live on. I picked up the guitar 18 months ago and practiced a few hours a day since. Thanks Walter for the inspiration

I love Marie

Walter love you so much ,,,, your album Ordinary Madness is stupendous 😂❤ seen you 5 times over the years,,,, Walter stay well ❤❤
