Editorial Review: 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. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Aways Good To Have Some "Fresh Trout" To Serve Up To GuestsWhat can I say that hasn't already been said?....OK..I'll try...Walter plays the guitar like an Olympic sprinter runs a race....He plays every song like it might be his last...All out...and heartfelt...Some say he plays too fast, too loud, too much emphasis on lead guitar...It's a matter of opinion....in my opinion..I happen to like it.. In this album Walter starts it off with "Welcome To The Human Race" which is classic..."Walter"..Great tune... This album also shows a little of a softer ... Read More Rating: - A very solid effort!I'm a fan of the blues but did not have a Walter Trout disc in my collection. I saw this one and decided to make it my first and give him a try. I am thrilled that I did! I can't stop listening to this excellent disc. Walter does play from his gut and as a listener you can feel the soul. His guitar playing is both raw at times yet soft, tender and expressive when necessary. I recommend this disc highly! Enjoy. Rating:  - Another Bombast Feast!Jeez, Trout is a great guitar player and a fine singer but on every disc he continues to pound us with full blast chords and over the top singing. Finesse is not a word he knows. I saw him in Phoenix and it was the same thing live. Why does he associate loud with good? It's not how many chords you play or how loud you are - any guitar player can do that. Too bad because he really is a cut above the other blues rockers, but this CD is just more of his never ending bombast. Rating: - A little more variety, but basically sticking with the formula that works...I'm a big Walter Trout fan. While his guitar and songwriting are not exactly revolutionary, I admire his ability to continue a career putting out honest, meat and potatoes blues rock in a world dominated by musical CRAP. I agree with Dr. Bluesman to an extent, that he does use a certain amount of cliches in his songs (the one I notice most is the phrase "Just a man...."), but people do expect him to stay in the box musically speaking and not get too out there--like Jonny Lang. Which means a more objective ...
