Walter Rossi is one of Canada’s
unsung veterans of the music scene having been involved
(without much recognition) as a musician since the
mid-sixties.
Rossi’s first professional gig as a guitarist was with
Wilson Pickett's The Soul Mates then the Buddy Miles Express
in the mid-sixties. Rossi later joined the Montreal based band
The Influence in 1967. After one critically acclaimed album in
1968 the band split up and Rossi would go on to join a variety
of bands; Luke And The Apostles (197071), Charlee (1972) and
The Bombers (1978) before becoming a studio musician and a
solo performer.

Over the period between 1976-1994 Rossi would
release five solo albums for the Aquarius Records label in
Canada.
All The Best is the first compilation of Rossi’s
work from this solo period. With songs taken from all five of
Rossi’s solo albums, this compilation provides a fine
introductory point for the appreciation of Rossi’s talent and
guitar prowess. This release by Unidisc Records, is an updated
version of the 1980 Aquarius Records greatest hits package
with additional liner notes and added songs to bring it up to
date.
