John Earl Walker Biography by Al Campbell All Music Guide

Guitarist, lyricist, and vocalist John Earl Walker became enamored with the blues at age 13, after being exposed to records by legendary guitarists of the genre such as Albert King, Magic Sam, T-Bone Walker, and Freddie King. By his 16th birthday, Walker had already begun playing guitar at local events and in clubs whenever possible. In 1967 he formed the blues-rock band the Plastic People, which included bassist Pete Harris and guitarist Joey Tremelo. Three years later Plastic People changed their name to Creedmore State, then to Plum Nelly when they signed with Capitol Records in 70 and recorded one album for them in '71, they gained national exposure opening shows for B.B. King, Muddy Waters, Alice Cooper, and Iggy Pop, to name just a few. The Plum Nelly lp is now a very rare and sought after collectors item! Following the breakup of Plum Nelly in 1976, Walker formed the first of several incarnations of the John Earl Walker Band. Walker then released his debut CD, I'm Leavin' You, in 2002, followed by Little Miss Perfect and People Are Talkin' two years later. All three discs are available on the New York-based Walkright Records label. John Earl Walker's band consists of veteran players who are gaining world-wide acceptance playing festivals, and through extensive internet, and terrestial radio airplay. John toured Australia in 2006, playing with many of the top players down under. John Earl Walker, and Peter Harris were both original members of Capitol Records recording artists Plum Nelly.
Now his greatest album "Come Over Here" is here, dont miss it thats all I can say.

Some of the many artists John Earl Walker has played with or opened for include;
BB King, Buddy Guy & Junior Wells, Jimi Hendrix, Muddy Waters, Bo Didley, Dr. John, Joe Cocker, Savoy Brown, John Mayall, Fleetwood Mac, Rod Stewart, The Kinks, and with the James Gang at Carnegie Hall!

We are happy to announce that our be performance at the Burghausen Jazz Festival in Burghausen Germany Saturday March 21 at 2 pm was a sold out success!

Thank you Tommy Keys for adding these tracks, and for playing so wonderfully on them!

Great New Live In Germany CD Review From Blues Bytes

John Earl Walker had never performed in Europe prior to this year’s Burghausen Jazz Festival, but he apparently made quite an impression when he did, judging from the enthusiastic reception he receives from the audience on his latest disc, Live In Germany (Walkright Records). Walker, who has been playing since the mid 60’s and was part of the 70’s group, Plum Nelly, plays a vigorous brand of blues/rock with clever songwriting and a top notch band in support, which seemed to be what the doctor or… Continue
