Bowie also took me on a trip. So many more. We lived at concerts since tickets were about $18. Wouldn't trade it for the world. ✌🌻🌻

Two albinos who couldn't stay out in the sun much, so stayed inside learning to play multiple instruments and became master musicians! See that piano/synthesizer around his neck? Edgar Winter is the pioneer of that which affectionately became known as the "Keytar!" Check out the live version of "Tobacco Road" with both Edgar and Johnny! The vocals will blow you away!

      Lucky? I’d say. Every musician in my school was either not serious or really stoned most of the time. Like when they were awake. lol. You actually played with them a while? That’s a cool story to tell. So sad we lost Johnny but I did get to see him play and I saw Edgar with Rick Derringer in around 1975 and what a show. I didn’t know until fairly recently that it was actually Ronnie Montrose on “They only come out at night.” Another amazing musician (RIP).
      I’m thrilled to see some folks from this generation hearing some of these great songs and bands. So much different now, not saying anything bad about today’s music, but I’m still learning to play stuff from the 60s-80s. In fact I was sitting here (attempting) to learn this song when I saw this video come up. One of my favorite live performances of Frankenstein. Awesome

    This live version of this song is a total experience. It blew me away the first time I saw it. Edgar Winter is very talented & plays many instruments including keyboards, saxophone & timbales. The title "Frankenstein" refers he fact that the original recording of the song was much longer than the final version & it required numerous edits to shorten it. So they spliced together many different parts.

    • @paulbarnes7624
      @paulbarnes7624 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know the facts. The song started out as a jam they used to play in the middle of their shows that was between 25-30 minutes long called Two Drum Solo. When they recorded their album, they needed one more song to fill the album. So, they decided to record that one. It was, of course, way to long, so Edger and Rick Derringer (producer) sat down at the tape machine and started chopping out, and splicing together the tape. Recording tape is a dark brown color, while the splicing tape is usually white, or sometimes yellow so that you can easily find your splices. The initial process got the song down to around 18 minutes. That still was too long to work for a record, so they continued to chop it up, take parts out and tape it back together until they finally got it down to the approximate 5 minute song that was put on the album. When one of the band members, presumably the drummer saw all the splices, he said, "You really Frankensteined that one." They all agreed to change the name, and that is how it became known from then to now as Frankenstein.
      I have been a fan of his since before that album came out. I own every album of his up until around the year 2000. And this story is how he told it in an interview on TV years ago. Unfortunately, it was the master tape they chopped up before making a backup, so the original does not exist anywhere. That is why there is not a 27 minute version of the song any more. Not even a bootleg copy.
      See, I know the facts, and now, so do you. Check out the song, Dying To Live. There are two versions of it. The original has Jerry LaCroix on vocals. Great song!

    Edgar Winter is one of those musical geniuses that just lives and breathes music. He also sings, plays guitar and can play a full drum set as well as any drummer out there. He and his brother Johnny both have albinoism, that's why he's so pale, he's not ill. I believe if you gave him a paper plate, a plastic cup and a straw he could create music. I saw Edgar Winter in Dallas way back in '78 with special guests, which turned out to be incredible. Steve Lukather, Neil Donnel, Eric Burdon and a relatively unknown Stevie Ray Vaugn. The Steve Miller Band finished the night and everyone came out for a finale, House of The Rising Sun. I don't think any concert has ever topped that one for me.

I was in jr high when Frankenstein hit the air waves and we absolutely loved it. 15+ years later when I saw him live on stage in a small club, it blew my mind that he was playing all those instruments. What a show. I never knew he did all that. Such a talent. I saw Johnny play there too once. I love Blues, but Johnny was a bit more of a Blues purist than I was a fan of, but Edgar kept me thoroughly entertained both times I saw him.

    You may have noticed that Edgar's an albino like his brother, guitarist Johnny. As youths they lived in Texas and couldn't spend a lot of time out in the sunshine, so they just stayed inside and jammed out with each other. Johnny could beat a six string to death. I saw Edgar in 1981 in a movie theatre that had been converted into a club, so it wasn't that big of a place. Since his skin has no pigmentation it changed to match whichever color the lights were. They forevermore shucked the corn, for 90 or so minutes, then finally he looked out and howled; "TIME FOR ME TO UNLEASH MY MONSTER!!!" I stood there high on acid and watched him and his band play this song for ten minutes that seemed like a blissful eternity, then melted out the door. A good time was had by all in attendance. You might want to check out his brother if you'd like to have your ears scorched off. May I suggest you listen to his album; "Still Alive and Well" from '73

I remember living in B'ham Al. as a teenager my first time hearing them. That sound they had was fire... I'm a young brother down there at that time and everybody's rocking to them no matter where you came from... They did an album before that too that was good. It's called, Edgar Winter's (Road Work) and it's live. Got some great sounds on it. Check it out!!! And others as well. Edgar had a brother named, "Johnny Winter!" An awesome guitarist, he passed in 2014. RIP Johnny. He could lay down some blues too. Those brothers are very talented. And those other guys are too. Rock Derringer was successful as well. Awesome sounds young man. 💯💯🔥🔥. I still listen to them at the present time✌️👍

    Had the pleasure of seeing Edgar and his group perform three different times, once at around the time this was made... in a very small venue, the Union Bar in Minneapolis, only a few hundred people at most... we were lucky to have seats not six feet from the stage, which was only elevated a foot or two off the floor, a very close and intimate setting... and I can attest to the fact that they played perfectly tight live, might as well have been listening to a studio recording, as far as how well they played together, not an ounce of slop in their musicianship. Edgar was a true virtuoso on several instruments and it was an amazing thing to behold.

    Johnny Winter is Edgar's brother he wasn't in this group but they do play together live playing Tobacco Road you need to react to that they are definitely the two most talented albinos you'll ever see also react to Edgar Winters Free Ride as well as Hang on Sloopy

    You know, when you go to a live concert, you fully expect the group to stretch out a song longer than what you hear on the radio,..I dont know if this was before a live audience, but you can see it's a small place,..small stage,..and probably even with the studio version, Edgar most likely wanted to make that longer,..dude is a genius, musician, like to name a few, Mozart, Prince,.he truly was connected to music,..its in his brain,..can play it on anything,..so talented, you know how some people are even handed, can write with both hands 🙌,..and you cracked me up with the looks on your face, at one point, you seem to be looking around, like,..where's Edgar,..where'd he go, where'd go!,.and I so wanted to tell you,..dude, there he is he's on the drums too,!!,..trying to keep up with Edgar is like trying to follow a fly darting around in a room,..he's like David Lee Roth, when he performed with Van Halen,..if you batted your eyelids, you most likely missed something,..I love how back in the day musicians had to do that,..to change instruments, but the thing about a band,..they kept it going, as Edgar's band mates did here,..while he did his quick presto change-o from keyboards, to sax, to drums,.God I think he even played the harmonica on a song,.think I saw him do that on someone's show,..the rest of the band kept the beat, kept the tempo going,..the bassist, guitarist, drummer,..when I saw Van Halen in concert, and Roth did his turn swinging from the rafters all over the place, above the stage, above the audience,..then Eddie took his turn doing the same, the rest of the band kept the song going base, drum, while they did their antics,..and Eddie kept playing in mid air,..Jerry Lee, Little Richard, played the piano backwards,..upside down,..lol,..crazy,..they're that good,..got all quadrants of the brain firing,..they supposedly kept Einstein's brain for study,..cause it was incredible how he came up with all these mathematical formulas, and scientific hypothesis, wanting to know what kind of damm brain he had,..they should've done that with these musicians like these,..what they did doesn't seem humanly possible,..its like Einstein, keeping all these equations in his brain,..how did Winter even keep up playing all these instruments, in one sitting,..not like in a studio, where you can stop playing, stop recording, jump on another instrument, start recording again,..but in one sitting, still keeping where you left off with the other instrument, to the next one, elaborate on it,..its amazing,...I'm one handed use a dominant hand to write ✍ , if I try to write with my non dominant hand,..its like a two year old just learning to write,..don't have the fluidity to write with both,..do keep going,..the 70's produced such talent,..Innovative decade, as was the 60's, 80's,....Godspeed, Peace ✌

    Love the brothers, Edgar and Johnny. Only albino brothers stars that I know of. This song was one of my favorite instrumentals of the the time, and free ride is another favorite. Johnny Winter his elder brother went strictly into blues and produced 3 albums for the great muddy waters. He is inducted into the blues hall of fame. He and Edgar made their debut on television when they were ten and twelve on a kids show. Their father was from Mississippi and played sax, guitar and piano. They are from Beaumont, Texas. Johnny died in 2014 in Switzerland. Go check him out and do a reaction for us. 😎

    " Frankenstein" is The Edgar Winter Group's most popular song by far. They were really not a real mainstream Rock Band as far as singles and chart toppers, they were mostly a bunch of great musicians playing the music they loved, imo.
    Mostly it's the Blues and Blues Rock for Edgar Winter and his older brother Johnny Winter. Both are outstanding musicians that simply loved what they did and didn't bother so much about fame and fortune. They were true to their musical passions and it's evident when you see a live performance like this one!

    Saw them in concert in 1975 and they didn't disappoint. The Edgar and Johnny Winter brothers were born albino. Because of that condition they couldn't be outside much so they stayed inside and learned everything they could about music. All that time practicing and learning music payed off. Johnny was a top blues guitar player that passed away a while ago. You should check out the song Tobacco Road that they did together. Also, check out Free Ride by the Edgar Winter Group. Both Edgar and Johnny were underrated, but so very talented.

    Edgar and Johnny Winter were shredders of the first magnitude bro. Very few as good as these brothers. I love love love their work and have for years. Ok, now do Buddy Miles and “Them Changes.” It will rock your world. Buddy sat in on one of my gigs many years back; as the master drummer and singer he was and killed it. Very nice humble man as well. He was the voice on the California Raisin commercial years ago as well. Ya just gotta hear this dude. Passed away many years ago sadly.

    That was live, in front of an audience. Blow away huh? Edgar Winter has many more songs you should hit, some with this group, and some with his brother Johnny Winter. Check out Tobacco Road with Edgar and Johnny Winter. Edgar sings some amazing blues on that one. BTW, the guitarist here was Rick Derringer, who had a big hit on his own called Rock and Roll Hootchie Coo.

    You have almost certainly heard the synthesizer Edgar Winter is playing before. It's an ARP 2600, connected to the keyboard by a long cable. Ben Burtt used an ARP 2600 for making R2D2's voice in Star Wars and for "ark" sound effects in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Loved your reaction to it!

    I saw Edgar Winter perform and, at a different time, I saw the guitarist, Rick Derringer, perform in Augusta, GA. Both were incredibly impressive and masters of their craft. Edgar Winter is currently performing with former Beatles drummer Ringo Starr's All-Star Band, now on tour. You can watch them on TH-cam.

    There wasn't much an albino kid could do in Texas but to stay out of the sun. So, he and his brother Johnny, learned how to play.
