purist Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 Sad to report that Robert Walker has passed away according to net reports from one of his buddies, Flery Bursey. Personally I always loved the powerhouse instrumental, and it always had me rushing to the floor, if I wasn't already there ;-) Don't know if I've ever heard the Detroit Sound 45 "Everythings All Right", doesn't ring any bells with me today, and just found a listing for a novelty break in 45 with his name credited, but whether it's the same artist who knows. There's more to his story & connections but will let others chip in
