Walk In The Night
Jr. Walker & The All Stars
Junior Walker (born Autry DeWalt Mixon, Jr. in 1931 in Blytheville, Arkansas) was one of the most consistent Motown chartmakers and undeniably the global brand's most successful instrumentalist from 1964 to 1978, racking up 25 US charted singles and 14 US charted albums. With his distinctive, rousing sax style and immediately identifiable vocals, Jr. Walker (with The All Stars - guitarist Willie Woods, keyboardist Vic Thomas and drummer James Graves) had the kind of raw'n'funky sound that captivated audiences worldwide.
Junior's early success on Motown's Soul imprint in the '60s with 'Shotgun', '(I'm A) Road Runner', and a reworking of Marvin Gaye's 'How Sweet It Is', established the dynamic sax man and his band as reliable groove makers. The 1969 release of the now-classic 'What Does It Take (To Win Your Love)' proved to be a
game-changer for Junior, setting the stage for a new decade of recordings that clearly showcased his innovative ability to add his own musical stamp to a diversity of pop, rock, jazz and R&B material.
