Matt Walker - guitars, lap steel, harmonica, vocals Ashley Davies - drums, vocals CD-ROM component produced by Justin Heitman
The Duo is back in town. This will be the first album where it's just the two of us in the studio playing live since I Listen to the Night in 1997. Something was arced up deep down between me and ash way back when, and we both knew it wasn’t going to quit. Matt
the duo is at it's best when it is working from emotion and feeling. be it song, instrumental or ballad...me and matt might go off on tangents, but the essential part, for me, the heart and soul of whatever you do, where ever the music might go, is the groove, the rhythm. It’s got to make you feel good. Ash

A full-on night at the ‘Conti’, a venue now gone and sadly missed by Melbourne punters. The place was like our second home at the time. For Ashley and me it was always a thrill to perform there. The master tapes for this recording are missing but we hope to find them to re-present a fuller record of the occasion. Matt

DIRTY FOG Matt Walker with Ashley Davies

Track List 1. Dirty Fog (slight
return mix) 4:19
|
Released 31 July 2000 on wminc/Virgin
Unavailable May be reissued on Stovepipe Records
Matt wrote this song as he drove down from the Hills to the recording studio one dark and dirty night. It's great to hear what Robert Goodge and David Chesworth do with the remixes. We'd love to hear anyone else's remix of this song too! The Muddy Waters' tune Everything's Comin' My Way really rocks - a 6.5 minute live version with a terrific drum intro by Ashley and slashing lap steel

YOU PUT A SPELL ON ME Matt Walker with Ashley Davies

Track List 1. You put a Spell on Me 2. Good Morning Little Schoolgirl 3. Out of Control
|
Released 2000 on wminc
Available! $10
Matt Walker - acoustic guitar, harmonica, vocals and atmospheres Ashley Davies - drums and percussion Chris Abrahams - piano Ken Gormly - bass
This is a curious little disc with a great live feel. ‘Schoolgirl’ is a blues song that Ashley and I would often perform at our shows around this time, while ‘Out of Control’ was a one off, never to be played again. If I get time one of these days I’ll teach myself how to play it again. Matt
This cd is already something of a collector's item - sometimes popping up at Rare Records. We have about 100 copies of the original pressing left.

I am excited to announce that Stovepipe Records has re- issued our first studio album, "I Listen to the Night" in June. Ashley and I have been playing music together for years now, but this is where it started. Well not really, it all started with us playing in bars at 3am, but this is when we made our stamp - our first album. It was this album that got our asses overseas. To play in bars at 3am. Matt
