Walter Trout - Common Ground [2LP Translucent Green]

Walter Trout's "Common Ground" album returns in spectacular form, on an opulent translucent green 2LP vinyl pressing.

Having become a sensation in 2010, this blues masterpiece reached #6 on the Billboard Blues chart and was celebrated for its deep emotional intensity. For this 15th anniversary edition, Trout's formidable guitar mastery and soulful vocals are complemented by the illustrious production of Grammy winner John Porter. Such pedigree shines through in tracks like the ferocious “Maybe A Fool,” the introspective “Common Ground,” and the soulful tale of “Her Other Man.”

Assembling a group of titans, Trout recruits the expertise of Kenny Aronoff on drums, the rhythmic groove of bassist James 'Hutch' Hutchinson and the soulful touches of Jon Cleary. This powerful set accentuates the raw energy and dynamic arrangements that define the album. Each song is an emotional journey, from the searing “Loaded Gun” to the personal reflection heard in “Eyes Of A Child.” It’s a record that takes listeners deep into the essence of the blues.

This newly designed 180-gram audiophile edition, limited to just 1,000 individually numbered copies, includes a lyric insert, enriching newcomers and aficionados alike. For blues fans and vinyl collectors, this edition of "Common Ground" is an essential work of art and history, vibrant in both sound and appearance.
