Tribute to blues harpist Big Walter Horton features Kim Wilson and Big Jon Atkinson, Mark Wenner, Sugar Ray & The Bluetones, Bob Corritore with Jimmy Rogers and Robert Lockwood Jr, Mark Hummel, Steve Guyger, Lil Ronnie Owens, Kurt Crandall and Andrew Alli. This is a project that I’ve wanted to do for some time now. Get together some great friends / blues musicians and pay respect to one of the all time greats, Big Walter Horton. Big Walter has been a major influence on all of the great blues harmonica players of my generation and beyond. We want to do our part in spreading the blues gospel of Walter Horton. Some people like the legendary Willie Dixon said he was “the best he ever heard” Dixon had heard and worked with all the greats and penned many of their tunes. This is a non-profit project with proceeds going to the Blues Foundation and HART Fund. We know they will put the money to excellent use. Artists involved donated music for the cause. We’re very excited about the record and are so grateful for the stellar lineup that is involved. We have the great Kim Wilson with Big Jon Atkinson, Mark Wenner, Mark Hummel, Steve Guyger, Sugar Ray Norica, Kurt Crandall, Andrew Alli and yours truly Li’l Ronnie. And Bob Corritore brought us two special tracks of him playing harmonica with two pioneers and Big Walter band mates Jimmy Rodgers and Robert Lockwood Jr.
