Joe Louis WALKER, Billy BRANCH & Matt "Guitar" MURPHY - Supertrio Live in Belgium '98

JOE LOUIS WALKER 
It was nearly the mid-eighties before blues fans awoke to what was happening in the San Francisco Bay area. By his own account, Joe Louis Walker had "paid his dues" by then. A musica! bridge combining California and Chicago blues with traditional Delta stylings, Joe Louis Walker never strayed far from what he calls "the real blues", keeping tradition alive while making his own mark: a personal and vital musical force.

MATT 'GUITAR' MURPHY
Star of the "Blues Brothers 2000" and original "Blues Brothers" Movies! 
He was the first musician hired by John Belushi to play inthe Blues Brothers band. Murphy appeared in the Blues Brothers movie as well as recording and touring in the band. Murphy is one of the great blues guitar players. Murphy was born in Mississippi, raised in Memphis and musically bred in post-war Chicago. In 1948, Murphy began playing with Howlin' Wolf and Junior Parker. In the fifties, Murphy played and recorded with Bobby "Blue" Bland and Memphis Slim. Murphy has played and recorded with such stellar blues talent as: Willie Dixon, James Cotton, Etta James, Sonny Boy Williamson, Chuck Berry, and many others. Murphy has recorded for Sun, Vee-Jay, United Artists, Modem, Strand, Chess, Buddah, Antone's and most recently for Roesch. Murphy is starring in the sequel to the original Blues Brothers movie, "The Blues Brothers 2000", with Dan Aykroyd and John Goodman. The movie will also feature appearances by James Brown, B.B. King, Junior Wells, Eric Clapton and Aretha Franklin who recreates her role in the movie as Murphy's wife.

BILLY BRANCH 
The career of Billy Branch is growing by leaps and bounds. His second album on Verve/PolyGram, Satisfy Me is his most fully realized collection of songs yet. Billy takes center stage as a vocalist as well as the most exciting harmonica player of his generation. The repertoire is as eclectic as Billy´s talents, ranging from blues classics by Willie Dixon ("Jt's A Crazy Mixed Up World") to R&B classics by Bill Withers ("Kissin´ 'My Love"), with stops along the way in Memphis (Teenie Hodges´ "Pay or Stay"), Jamaica ("Heart in Your Life"), and Chicago ("Satisfy Me“). Billy does cool ("Hey Baby"), Billy rocks ("Highway Blues"), Billy swings ("One Chance With You").Billy´s funky too (“Kissin´ My Love"). He even cries ("Same Thing"). It makes sense that Billy Branch has crystalized the position of "1990's Bluesman". His career has been rich and varied from the start.
