Billy Walton Band - Neon City

Billy Walton Band NEON CITY Self Released 4.5 star. With guitar playing so good that it should be outlawed, this is one heck of a fantastic album

Plying his trade in New Jersey with his name becoming quite famous in that area, Billy Walton is truly one of the greats of contemporary rock and roll. To hell with your Kaiser Chiefs and whatever other band deems themselves to be legends of the genre, Billy Walton is one name to be reckoned with and must surely be celebrated here with this album release which was recorded along with his other two main members of the band.

Being mostly an instrumental track, Treat Her Right might delve into the realms of a song which is destined only for jamming sessions and not success. But no, this is not the case here as the efforts really are quite superb by all. The self-penned Soul Song has the quietest beat of the ten tracks, but what a sound it is. It has an end of the night feel about it which then builds up to a Hendrix styled finish mixed with a Yardbirds groove which is never a bad style. The concluding track of the album happens to be a cover, but what a fine cover it is. The aforementioned track being Papa was a Rollin Stone and what a remarkable achievement it is, it keeps true to the original but the band adds their own ingredients in what is a very tasty musical cake to digest.

I can honestly say with gusto that the name of Billy Walton must surely be regarded soon as a legend in his own right. RH www.maverick-country.com
