Johnny Winter blues style
Winter had a way of making any blues song his own. Not often is a song better or as good as the original but this is for sure. This the kinda jam you hope keeps going at least until you black out. One of the best rock & Roll and blues lead guitarists, Mr. Johnny Winter! Johnny Winter, Floyd Radford (guitar), Randy Hobbs (bass), Richard Hughes (drums).
Woodstock
He played at the biggest festivals (headed by Woodstock). A raging albino with the guitar is one of the most common photographs documenting those times and performances of the artist. Unfortunately, he fell into drug addiction, which turned him off for a few years with active musical life. In 1977 he re-appeared in the studio and on stage. He did it in a masterful style by recording and producing records of the master himself – Muddy Waters. Their joint albums – “Hard Again”, “I’m Ready” and “Muddy Mississippi Waters Live” – received Grammy Awards in 1977, 1978, and 1979. Also nominated for this prestigious award was “I’m a Bluesman” released in 2004. The most prestigious ranking published by Rolling Stone magazine placed Johnny in the 74th place in the list of the greatest guitarists of all time.
Jumpin’ Jack Flash
I was born in a cross-fire hurricane
And I howled at my ma in the driving rain,
But it’s all right now, in fact, it’s a gas!
But it’s all right. I’m jumpin jack flash,
Its a gas! Gas! Gas!
