    You ask THE question: where do you find this stuff? We didn’t find it. We grew up with it. Before TH-cam, before the Internet, before cell phones, we came home from school and listened with friends in our rooms to these records that we bought on Saturdays in the record stores. This is how we passed our time. And we are richer for it. I can’t say how tickled I am that your generation is discovering it also. That’s why I love these reaction videos.

    Many years ago a friend of mine was a bandmate of Edgar Winter for a few years and I saw them play small venues many times over a 4-5 year period. I've been blessed to see many great bands and artists perform live: McCartney, The Who, Rolling Stones, Page & Plant, The Eagles, Pink Floyd, Springsteen, John Fogerty, Tom Petty, Frank Zappa, Bob Seger, Steve Miller, Aerosmith, The Kinks, U2, Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Jeff Beck, ZZ Top, Santana, Heart, Fleetwood Mac, Van Halen, John Mellencamp, and so many more. But I can say without hesitation the most gifted I was lucky enough to witness is Edgar Winter, and if I could transport any of you reading this to any show I ever saw, I'd take you to one of his. Truly a mighty case that music is a gift from God. Thank you and God bless you, Edgar.

    Adogg, if you want to hear the BEST version of this song. Edgar does it on the Live Roadwork album. The band on that version is actually Edgar Winter's White Trash with Johnny Winter. (This here version is Johnny Winter's band with Edgar.) Edgar and Jerry LaCroix's dual vocals are impressive!!! Untouchable. Johnny and Edgar are brothers. One in a billion chance that two brothers in the same family would be born as true albino's. Both had incredible careers in their own rights. Johnny was the original Texas Blues man. Lightning fast on the guitar. Check out some of his solo stuff. The Edgar Winter Group and Edgar Winter's White Trash band are both excellent.

    The bass player Tommy Shannon was also Stevie Ray Vaughan's bass player in Double Trouble. It has been said in a quote (that apparently has been used in association with several artists) that when Jimi Hendrix was asked "What does it feel like to be the greatest guitar player in the world" he said "I don't know why don't you ask Johnny Winter?"

    • @johndeeregreen4592
      @johndeeregreen4592 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Tommy was and still is one of the most influential bassist in creating the harder mixture of Rock and Blues we seen from the late 1960's into the early 1990's... and not too many people know who he is. The Winter brothers, Rick Derringer, and Tommy Shannon are names everyone needs to know.

    • @GetRidOfCivilAssetForfeiture
      @GetRidOfCivilAssetForfeiture ปีที่แล้ว

      I heard that also but he allegedly said “Why don’t you ask Roy Clark?” Not downgrading Johnny Winters but Roy was probably not just the greatest guitar player ever because there wasn’t a style he didn’t seem to excel at but he was possibly the greatest banjo and fiddle player ever as well.
      Don’t get me wrong, when you get to the level of excellence we are talking about you are starting to get into nano degrees of differences and preferences so to claim who is the best comes down to a matter of taste, preference, etc.
      I prefer to say they are great and the differences so minor and virtually indistinguishable that you just have to say they all belong on that same pantheon plateau.

    • @GetRidOfCivilAssetForfeiture
      @GetRidOfCivilAssetForfeiture ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Tommy Shannon gets overshadowed by John Entwhistle and still not many know who he was either. They both set a standard for bass players that is next to impossible to equal, let alone beat. Both were/are so great that they too deserve to be on the Pantheon Plateau of greatest guitar players of all time.

    Two Albino brothers from East Texas. Their daddy was a preacher and momma was an Avon lady. They couldn't go outside and play in the Texas sun, so they stayed indoors and learned to play every instrument that they could get. Johnny only wanted to play guitar, as he started out playing a plastic ukulele. Edgar wanted to play everything, and he did. Johnny was trying to perfect his slide guitar playing and he would ask his mother for empty Avon containers, to place on his finger, to get the slide effect. He said he used an empty lipstick lid for the longest time, until one day, he and Edgar were sent to the hardware store, to get something to fix a broken pipe at home. Johnny started picking up pieces of pipe and tubing and found something that fit his finger perfectly. He put it on in the store and used it from then on. Edgar is a perfect Texan gentleman. Johnny was not. They went their separate ways to form the groups that they went on to play in and achieve phenomenal success. They went to the same school as Janis Joplin. And, Jimmy Johnson, former NFL football coach, was also a classmate of theirs. They were raised in deep Southeast Texas, close to the Louisiana border. They would sneak into juke joints and listen to all of the amazing Blues artists of the day. They'd take what they heard and go back home and play it. Both of them have impressive catalogs our there. Johnny toured and played up until the moment he passed. RIP Johnny ❤️ You made us Texans proud 👏

    Roadwork is a live album by vocalist/keyboardist/saxophonist Edgar Winter and his band White Trash, a powerful revue famous for their fusion of funk, gospel, R&B, and rock 'n' roll. It was released as a double LP in 1972 and Johnny Winter made a special appearance singing lead and playing guitar on "Rock and Roll, Hoochie Koo". Louisiana native Jerry LaCroix, who shared lead vocals with Winter in White Trash, is also prominently featured.🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

He was a stunning performer on the same level of Hendrix and Clapton. A great place to start with him would be with his first band Taste performing at the Isle of Wight 1970 "What's Going On?". He was only 22 at the time of this concert. His playing just got better from there. "A Million Miles Away" from Irish Tour '74 is another great piece. Check him out-you will not be sorry!

    The Winter brothers are awesome performers. I really hope you'll check out more songs from both of these brothers.

Edgar Winter (keyboard/sax) is still touring, currently with former Beatle Ringo Starr, and those videos are on TH-cam as well.
    As I said in a previous comment, I saw Edgar Winter in Augusta, Georgia, which, ironically, is where Tobacco Road is located. From about 1900 to the 1940s, Tobacco Road was home to black and white sharecroppers who were as poor as church mice. This song reflects that reality.

    Check out "Rock and Roll Hoochi Koo": from "Johnny Winter And". The band included brother Edgar and Rick Derringer. My band covered this song way back in the day - lots of fun to play. I got to see "...And" live at SUNY Albany and they blew me completely away. Later on I saw him when he was part of a Muddy Waters blues tour. And then at a solo gig playing acoustic blues at the Palace Theater to a "crowd" of about thirty people. He was pretty wasted, chugging from a wine skin, staggering around and plopping into a folding chair on stage. Only one song was up to par. Johnny is particularly known for bottleneck playing at it's finest: "Dust My broom" live (and sober) on the David Letterman show in 2012 is a great example.
    Alas he passed away 2014. RIP
    Johnny had a home roughly forty miles from me. Our bassist's brother did some album photos for him and was invited to Johnny's birthday party one year. Me and my band could have gone as Roddie's gusts but we had a gig that night. Roddy sure had some stories to tell over the next couple of days. The whole "...And" band was there and they put on a short impromptu concert for the guests. Oh well.

    The greatest guitar performances I ever witnessed was Johnny Winter in Central Park in 1980. The man's guitar playing was unreal.

    Johnny is playing guitar and he"s the older brother. Edgar is doing lead vocals and the saxophone and keyboards. He also plays drums. I saw them together once and they were amazing! When playing with his younger brother Edgar; Johnny usually held back so his younger brother could steal the show.. Edgar was able to do that because he was very talented also . I just want to say that you should try some of Johnny's solo stuff because he really would cut loose on the guitar. He is in the category with only a few great guitar players. Try the song "Highway 61 Revisited" from his captured live album also from the same album the song Sweet Papa John is really good.
    These 2 albinos were called white trash when they were growing up and didn't have many friends so they learned how to play music together music together. Probably 2 of the most talented brothers ever.

    He and his brother even played at Woodstock back in '69. This is one of the songs they played. Johnny Winter, the one playing guitar, was inducted into the Blues Foundation Hall of Fame back in 1988.

    They are Johnny (Guitar and Vocalist) and Edgar (Keyboard, Saxophone, Vocalist, and sometimes Timbales and other Percussion) Winter. Stevie Ray Vaughan (STV) was a protege of Johnny in the early days in Austin Texas. In fact the Bass Player in this concert is Chris Leighton who went on to play Bass for SRV in his band Double Trouble. For a real treat check out Johnny Winter’s cover of The Stones’ “Jumping Jack Flash”!
