Directed by Brent Backhus, this stunning 85-minute concert was captured in all its glory at the infamous Boulder Station Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada last summer during Walker\u2019s 2018 U.S. tour.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br> Joe Louis Walker\u2019s career has spanned nearly six decades \u2013 and 24 studio albums \u2013 since first picking up the guitar at his childhood home in San Francisco at the young age of eight. Joining the local musicians\u2019 union in his early teens enabled young Joe to perform publicly with the likes of John Lee Hooker, Buddy Miles, Thelonious Monk, Willie Dixon, Nick Lowe, John Mayall, Muddy Waters and even Jimi Hendrix. By the late 1980s and into the 1990s, Walker had already collaborated with and performed with multi-Grammy Award winning artists such as B.B. King (on King\u2019s <em>Blues Summit<\/em> album) and James Cotton (on Cotton\u2019s <em>Deep In The Blues<\/em> album) as well as enjoying the rare honor to perform at the Presidential Inauguration of President George H. Bush. In 2013, Walker was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame, later being nominated in four categories for a Blues Music Award. In 2015, his album <em>Everybody Wants A Piece<\/em> was nominated for a Grammy Award in the \u201cBest Contemporary Blues Album\u201d category.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br><em>Viva Las VegasLive<\/em> will be available on global digital platforms along with the home entertainment version that will be packaged in a gorgeous, four-panel, 2 Disc Digipack containing a DVD and audio CD of the concert. The all-region DVD\u2019s bonus features include an exclusive interview with Walker that was filmed backstage at the venue plus a rare, behind the scenes slideshow of Joe and his band as they prepare to storm through ten, smoking tracks in front of their adoring live audience. A stand-alone, limited-edition colored 12\u201d Vinyl LP version of the concert will be released separately this summer on the Cleopatra Blues Label imprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br><strong><em>Viva Las Vegas Live<\/em> Track Listing:<\/strong><br>I&#8217;m Not Messin\u2019 Around<br>Young Girls Blues<br>Sugar Mama<br>Do You Love Me?<br>In The Morning<br>Soldier for Jesus<br>You Don&#8217;t Love Me Girl<br>Black &amp; Blue<br>Too Drunk To Drive Drunk<br>Like It This Way<br><br><strong>PRE-ORDER JOE LOUIS WALKER VIVA LAS VEGAS LIVE DVD\/CD here:<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Joe-Louis-Walker-Viva-Vegas\/dp\/B07PKY4YZ5\/ref=sr_1_fkmrnull_1?keywords=Joe+louis+walker+viva+las+vegas&amp;qid=1553796334&amp;s=gateway&amp;sr=8-1-fkmrnull\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Joe-Louis-Walker-Viva-Vegas\/dp\/B07PKY4YZ5\/ref=sr_1_fkmrnull_1?keywords=Joe+louis+walker+viva+las+vegas&amp;qid=1553796334&amp;s=gateway&amp;sr=8-1-fkmrnull<\/a><br> Album Cover Photo Credit: Arnie Goodman<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: Cleopatra Records<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cleopatra Entertainment &#8211; in association with Cleopatra Blues &#8211; will release a brand new concert&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11004,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23,2],"tags":[460],"class_list":["post-11003","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music-news","category-news","tag-joe-louis-walker"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11003","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11003"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11003\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11005,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11003\/revisions\/11005"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11004"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11003"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11003"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11003"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
