New CD - Toby Walker - Speechless... For Once! 'You MUST hear this! Toby's name should be mentioned in the same breath as Stefan Grossman, Davy Graham, Peter Lang, Dakota Dave Hull and other guitar wizards.' "This all instrumental outing is a finger picker's delight... Walker reminds me of John Fahey - he's that good" 'It's a thrilling ride that showcases not only your virtuosity, but your range...from the groove of "Hideaway" to the cosmic power of "Whipping Post" to the subtle grace of "Over the Rainbow" and "The Entertainer" (which is just what you are).' "Yes, Toby Walker has finally shut up, but this absolute gem of a record screams brilliance and taste at you, and that's something we always want to hear from him." "Once again Toby Walker proves he is the guitarist's guitarist on the acousitc guitar." "Toby Walker may be speechless but his fingers do some mighty fine and wild talking. Absolutely wonderful." "It has been said that variety is the psice of life; and when listening to Toby Walker's latest CD recording - 'Speechless' - it leaves you breathless with all instrumentals projecting Toby's guitar wizardry of rags, folk, blues licks and more. Highly recommended."

Look back at the incredible body of recorded work created by Toby Walker for almost a decade. On each of those recordings, you'll hear amazing guitar licks, humorous stories, and be taken on incredible journeys - nefarious characters, love gone right, love gone wrong, humorous interludes and surprise endings. Each CD has given us a wonderful snapshot of this talented musician's unique ability to entertain us. So what can I tell you about this new CD? Not a word. This is the only CD where Toby lets his guitar do his talking for him. No stories, no murder, no mayhem, no notorious characters lurking in the shadows, no girl leaving him with an empty heart and pocket. Toby has a reputation for grabbing the listener and taking him on a wonderful lyrical ride - always accompanied by an unbelievable soundtrack. Sometimes we overlook that soundtrack because of the joy of the ride. It's always there, always powerful, but sometimes we almost seem to take that part of his talent for granted. This CD changes that for good. What you get is a masterful selection of tunes that span many musical avenues - rags, Celtic, blues, rock - pretty much everything. Scott Joplin? Yep. Freddie King? Sure. Beatles? Certainly. Allman Brothers? Of course. Your toes will be tapping from "Sweet Georgia Brown" to "Norwegian Wood" to "El Whipping Post". For listeners, your ears are in for a musical feast. For musicians, you'll be shaking your head in awe. For all, it will become one of your favorite recordings. Leslie M. Tappercoomb
