Walter Thomas - Chicago Knights - VINYL LP

Rhythm & Blues

Walter Thomas's InchChicago KnightsInch LP features a retrospective of songs written and released between 1987 and 2009, primarily with the Roland 1824 and the Fostex 8-track reel-to-reel. Channeling the spirit of underground soul and dance music specifically rooted within the greater area of Chicago, Illinois-a city known for it's deep and healthy soul and R&B roots-this compilation features 8 of it's 9 tracks on vinyl for the very first time. The intro track InchI Wanna Get WitchaInch dates back to 1987 and holds a proven track record of kicking off many a dance floor, rocking clubs worldwide in a blur of boogie-funk, disco, and soul. InchImmaturityInch and both versions of InchFed UpInch echo the emotional differences and tensions between lovers in a spat. InchMagic CityInch served as the anthem and homage to it's namesake roller-skating rink in 90s-era Waukegan, IL. While InchChicago KnightsInch is a relentless mid-tempo groove inspired by the aggressive motorists that dominate Chicago roadways, Inch2nd ChanceInch drops the tempo to a slow R&B roll, preaching the ethos of love, peace, and forgiveness. Last but certainly not least, InchE&J'sInch was a real commercial jingle used for a once-legendary BBQ joint, InchE&J's,Inch in Illinois a short bonus track to close out the LP. These 9 tracks are just a touch of Walter's expansive body of work, and we're stoked to bring them to you on wax. Album Tracks 1. I Wanna Get Witcha 2. Immaturity 3. Magic City 4. Chicago Knights 5.
