Walk That Walk, Talk That Talk is the first album
the Fabulous Thunderbirds recorded without Jimmie Vaughan. It takes two guitarists -- two good guitarists, by the way -- to fill his place and even with
Duke Robillard and Kid Bangham on board, there is something missing. Though
the T-birds have returned to straightahead blues-rock, abandoning the overly commercial production of their previous three albums, they don't sound as distinctive as the did with Vaughan.
Kim Wilson blows some good harp,
Robillard throws out a few stellar solos and Bangham can almost keep up with him, but on the whole, the album is a disappointment. ~ Thom Owens
