This show is dedicated to Phillip Walker, who died June 22, 2010. His musical artistry gave joy to us and expression to the Blues for many years and I was blessed to see, hear and meet this gentleman. He will be missed and our hearts go out to his family and dear friends, whose pain might be mitigated just knowing what he meant to his fans. Thank you, Phillip.
