The funk is back in the house. Walter “Wolfman” Washington is back with a hot new release entitled “Doin’ The Funky Thing” (Zoho Music). I’ve always been a bigger fan of Walter’s live shows over his studio releases. This new release really captures the live feel that Walter and his band the Roadmasters have on stage. The opening number “Shake Your Booty/Funky Thing Part 1″ is true New Orleans funk and boogie, where you just can’t sit down. There is no surprise that Walter would include a post Katrina song on his first studio release since the disaster. “I’m Back” is an honest uplifting groove that tells the story of returning to New Orleans, while looking to rebuild the once great musical hotbed. Dr. John grinds out on the Hammond B3 on “I’m Back.” Walter has certainly done his part by really never leaving New Orleans. It was well documented that Walter and a group of a few artist were the first to find some generators and plug in before the flood waters had even totally relented.Walter

Like his live shows the “Wolfman” perfectly blends his guitar playing with the tight horn arrangements of James “Jimmy” Carpenter. Age has improved the soulful voice of Walter “Wolfman” Washington, and his guitar playing reminds us of the great heyday of the Crescent City’s R&B Kings that Walter once backed (Ernie K-Doe, Lee Dorsey, Irma Thomas & Johnny Adams). “Just Like That” reminds us of those days and “Only You” reminds of the progression of R&B into the 70′s and beyond. Walter also shows us his other side with a straight ahead tune called “Wolf Jazz” that reminds us that NOLA was the birth place of Jazz. Shake your booty on down to the local record store or get on that internet thing and get this CD.
