The new album
Walter Crockett
Children So Long
Walter Crockett
A brilliant, eclectic songwriter with an instinct for hooks, according to some guy on the internet, Walter Crockett hails from Worcester, Mass, where he recorded four albums with his late wife, Valerie, and they performed throughout New England. His newest album reunites him with a former bandmate, guitarist and producer Duke Levine, and an awesome cast of pickers and singers. It’s real Americana, rooted in folk, country, blues and rock’n’roll.

“Children So Long”
Don’t lie with the bully and the cheater
Don’t kneel for the preaching fool
Don’t bow to the man with the gun in his hand just because his aim is true
“Fleet Of Wooden Caskets”
So here’s to the Bible and the Koran, the Torah and Talmud too
The Vedas and the Bhagavad-Gita, and the ancient Book of Runes
Here’s to every god and goddess whose name we take in vain
Through the wind’s infernal howling, through the everlasting rain
