    The former Greyboy Allstar explores new territory, incorporating elements of electronic music and dub reggae into his traditional R&B and jazz roots, all powered by the flavor of his vintage Fender Rhodes and Hammond B-3 Organ.

    There Goes The Neighborhood
    Robert Walter's "solo" project is one of great funkiness. Although his 20th Congress continues to tour, the keyboard wizard has put together an album of absurdly groovin' tunes. Backed by jazz/funk pioneers Harvey Mason (drums), Red Holloway (sax), Chuck Rainey (bass), and Phil Upchurch (guitar), Walter proves that he can play with the best on "There Goes the Neighborhood".
    Track Listing: 1- 2% Body Fat 2- Bread and Water 3- There Goes the Neighborhood 4- Wade in the Water 5- The Tease 6- 4:00 Wash Up 7- Corner Store 8- Bakery Blues 9- Swap Meet 10- My Babe 11- Suede
