In conjunction with the mighty Provogue label, Music On Vinyl will re-issue 3 classic Walter Trout albums on vinyl! After being out of print for quite a long time, Common Ground, Blues For The Modern Daze and Battle Scars will be re-issued on colored vinyl on October 10.
After its original release in 2010, Walter Trout's Common Ground is back on vinyl, for the first time as a 2LP. The critically acclaimed album by the American blues guitarist, singer and songwriter reached #6 on the Billboard Blues chart and made waves in the UK charts as well. The album showcases a collection of powerful, emotionally charged songs including, amongst other, the tracks "Maybe A Fool", "Common Ground", and "Her Other Man".
Walter's 20th album, and his 5th for Provogue, was produced by legendary producer and Grammy Award-winner John Porter, who is known for his work with blues icons B.B. King and Buddy Guy. The record features top-tier musicians Kenny Aronoff, James "Hutch" Hutchinson and Jon Cleary, all adding depth and expertise to the dynamic arrangements.
Common Ground is available as a 15th anniversary edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on green vinyl and includes an insert with lyrics.[info sheet from distr.]
