Walter Trout — Paradiso, Amsterdam, 2006

Why this recording

In 2006 Walter Trout was touring behind the Full Circle album with the Radicals, a line-up featuring Rick Knapp on bass, Joey Pafumi on drums and Sammy Avila on keyboards. This Fabchannel archive, shot at the Paradiso, runs past two hours twenty, and its detailed chapter list takes you straight to each song. The programme mixes blues standards such as opener "Dust My Broom" and "Goin' Down" with Trout originals like "Life In The Jungle". The final half hour runs through "Hounddog", "Goin' Down" and "False Alarm".

Full concert by Walter Trout at Amsterdam’s Paradiso in 2006, captured by Fabchannel. An American guitarist who came up through Canned Heat and John Mayall’s band, Walter Trout is one of the great names of electric blues-rock. In the legendary Dutch venue, he strings together incandescent solos, devastating slow blues and driving boogies, powered by virtuoso playing and raw emotion. The polished capture highlights the interplay with his band and the fervor of the Amsterdam crowd. This filmed live full concert is a lesson in blues guitar and a fine entry point to an artist too often overlooked by the wider public.
