Transition is the third solo studio album by American blues rock musician Walter Trout, credited to the Walter Trout Band.

[3] It was preceded by the singles "Running in Place" on September 18, 1992, and "Motivation of Love" at the end of the year.

[5] Music & Media described Transition as "less bluesy" than both Prisoner of a Dream and Life in the Jungle, noting that "With each album the blues content diminishes".

[3] Walter Trout himself has acknowledged this change in retrospect, complaining about "the way the guitars are done" and claiming that the production team "tried to turn me into some insipid pop act.

"[6] Classic Rock writer Henry Yates selected Transition as an album "to avoid" in Trout's discography, claiming that "the bone-headed production ... buried the emotional honesty at work beneath a sickly sheen".
