Re: Walter Rossi

This is a link to his web site.It has fascinating auto biography of when he played with Wilson Pickett,jammed with Hendrix ans so on.Lots of pics and media clips.I didnt know it but reading his bio he was the first person to use the voice box.He also has a section where you can listen to some  of his tunes.May I suggest "RIPDAD"... in honor of his dad passing.Also "Going Down".Unfortunately he has no songs off the Charlee album.He also has a forum where you can talk directly with him as he views himself as a regular guy.
Check it out ,its pretty cool

Re: Walter Rossi

Finally a response.Thanks arkady.You have to hear the whole Charlee Album.The man knows how to use the pedal and makes his guitar sing.Awhile back I found the bootleg album accidently and a friend of mine corresponds with him.So I let him know about it and now I have two autographed CD covers from him.Autographed in gold ink.I've got em framed and they are my pride and joy.
Canadian boy does well.Thanks Walter and Thank You arkady
