Saw Willy play this last night at the UWM Gasthaus...free show, about 50 people there... Amazing as usual... the new album, "How to Rob a Bank" is a must have.
Many thanks to WDST for introducing Willy's music to me; seen him here in Cave Creek, AZ and Anaheim, CA, phenomenal song writer and virtuoso guitar player
Me too Dog face! He is talented beyond belief, yet so little known. Maby in time. I honestly think he is the best singer /song-writer on the planet. If any one out there knows better please let me know! Dale
Yeah he is one great player and song writer. Sometimes players would rather be good than be popular. Think of it like this. He will bring quality of song writing and playing to the few who need it. Popular often means you have to suck up to poeple around you who might not have beautiful music on their minds especialy when they go into the studio..they might be thinking dollars and seats to fill. No nead to knock each path. Boy bands still entertain too..just not this complete.
I used to live on the same block as Willy. Some nights, I would sit on my balcony and listen to him practice. God I loved that. I like to fancy myself a guitarist, but Willy just blows me away. His talent is so underrated in this MTV world...
I met Willy Porter in Kentucky last month...what an unassuming, humble guy for such a unbelievable talent. Way to go man...keep following the dream...thanks for the music
God Willy. Are you kidding me! He's beyond amazing.

dog eared dream is another great album, I think his classic. I saw him in the mid 90's at UWSP. It was pretty cool.
