Walter Trout discography

Walter Trout is an American blues rock musician from Ocean City, New Jersey. After spells in Canned Heat and John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers in the 1980s, he started a solo career in 1989 and signed to Dutch label Provogue Records.[1] His first three albums – Life in the Jungle, Prisoner of a Dream and Transition – all charted in the Netherlands, reaching numbers 51, 20 and 46, respectively, on the Dutch Albums Chart.[2] Tellin' Stories was issued worldwide by Silvertone Records in 1994, registering at number 84 on the UK Albums Chart.[3] Trout subsequently returned to Provogue and his albums continued to chart in the Netherlands.[2]
