VA • The Walter Davis Project

 



Tribute to a Giant of 20th Century Blues music.

A stellar collection of new and previously unreleased recordings of the music of Walter Davis, one of the most prolific and influential creators of the pre-World War 2 Blues Scene and an inductee into the Blues Hall of Fame. When Muddy Waters was recorded by the Library of Congress in 1942 he was asked to list the songs he enjoyed performing most, on that list there were more Walter Davis songs than any other artist.

"To me, Walter Davis's singing, piano playing and lyrics are really deep blues…about as deep as you can get. His lyrics are true blues poetry. His sound has such a deep deep feeling to it. It does what only deep blues can do: it touches your heart and comforts you in a poignant way." – Charlie Musselwhite

Homenaje a un gigante de la música Blues del siglo XX.

Una colección estelar de grabaciones nuevas e inéditas de la música de Walter Davis, uno de los creadores más prolíficos e influyentes de la escena del blues anterior a la Segunda Guerra Mundial y miembro del Salón de la Fama del Blues. Cuando la Biblioteca del Congreso grabó a Muddy Waters en 1942, se le pidió que enumerara las canciones que más le gustaba interpretar, en esa lista había más canciones de Walter Davis que de cualquier otro artista.

"Para mí, la forma de cantar, tocar el piano y las letras de Walter Davis son un blues muy profundo... lo más profundo que se puede conseguir. Sus letras son verdadera poesía del blues. Su sonido tiene un sentimiento tan profundo. Hace lo que sólo el blues profundo puede hacer: te toca el corazón y te reconforta de forma conmovedora". - Charlie Musselwhite
