Johnny I am an old man now but you can still bring tears to my eye's with your blues. Your dedication to the blues is now part of my life. Thanks for taking care of Muddy when he needed it.
+sküll düggery I have lived in the Chicago area my whole life, bought Willie Dixon a shot at a bar in Evanston, still have the shot glass. His son Freddy played bass at a jam in my basement with Johnnie "Guitar" Watkins on lead, Billie Branch on harmonica and I can not remember who was on drums. The Blues have always been a part of my life!
+Joe Johnston Johnny is still a part of my life...and he still brings tears to my eyes with his blues. In my opinion...seeing Johnny 6 times...nobody...nobody in the past or in the present...could equal Johnny in his passion for playing the "Blues."
I love Johnny Winter. The breadth of his talent is so awesome....he could play ridiculously fast and aggressively, but then he could play the simplest blues like this just as soulfully. He had a heck of a voice, too. R.I.P to a true blues legend!
@@coxhoe789 No, but they were apparently friends. In Crossroads Blues, Robert sings, "Tell my friend, boy Willie Brown." . Brown's Mississippi Blues is a 1942 recording under the name Wiliam Brown. It's here on TH-cam.
Saw Johnny dozens of times throughout the 70's & 80's. He never disappointed! Saw him as warm-up for for George Thorogood in Rochester in the early '80s. Crowd stood and brought him back for 6 encores! Now THAT'S a warm-up! Amazing blues legend!
JDW a WARM UP??? HARD TO BELIEVE...maybe after his health declined, 80's he was KILLING the blues. That would be INSULTING to warm up ANYONE at that time!! George must've thought these promoters are IDIOTS!!!
had the pleasure seeing johnny in 72,73 came on stage , sat down, played some mississippi blues,and when all the people left, that no clue why they were there johnny and i and his enduring fans had a real good time.rip.
...It doesn't get much better than this..R.I.P. Johnny Winter...had the distinct pleasure and honor of working a show with him years ago at The Fountain Casino in Aberdeen, New Jersey...Still get chills hearing him play....Go, Johnny Go.......(Salutes)....
+Phil Stefura --- those jersey clubs all turned blues and rock right after disco died. so you'd see the likes of johnny and muddy playing under those huge glitter balls. i used to borrow a friend's ID so i could get in.
Johnny was the real deal. Started playing at a young age, sneaking into roadhouses and blues clubs sometimes being invited to sit in with the band. Paid his dues
RIP, Johnny. I thank Johnny for giving me a life during high school. Where I went you were a prom queen, cheerleader or dance troupe , LAME!! I would have not made it without his music, concerts, the Ivanhoe in New Orleans etc...
I feel so luck , got to see Muddy Waters way back in 81 at the roxy on sunset blvd...LA . Eric at long beach on the second row a gift from Dennis Wilson ,,,beach boys drummer RIP brother . And my hero Jonnhy 3 times . I am from Brazil and feel blessed for all . Even more to meet and become a friend of Dennis , was just 23 and got to be friend of a legend .
I was 19 years old when I first heard of Johnny Winter's rock and roll songs and blues I enjoyed it a lot, now that I'm 60 I still love listening to all his songs. It brings back good memories of my hippie days.
I was so lucky to see Johnny Winter during the black cap period, and it was a joy, especially during the part with him, the Firebird and the audience, talking, reminiscing and sharing things we loved.
Johnny was one of the greatest, and "Mississippi Blues" is a notoriously difficult tune to pic...... Johnny does it with ease and with beautiful blues passion.....tremendous....
SEEN EDGAR AND JOHNNY WHEN I WAS JUST A BOY! And they were the cats meow on these blues lines, and still makes me smile, it sounds J.Giles was around then to by the lick that the harmonica player played in this vid.
One of the best musicians of the history. I notice , much European people don't know Johnny Winter . I admire since 42 Years ago . I love his Unique music . The respectful and very friendly greetings of me , Johan Capiau
My favorite guitar player after the first time I heard him live. I never missed a show and we both lived in Ct. so I lost track how many, many times I saw him
I saw him play in 1971 at Dania Pirates World in Dania, Florida, it was recorded as a part of a live album. certainly we will never see another guitarist like him in our lifetime. Surely miss him already.
Johnny Winter is as much Blues as Blues can get.Damn he's a monster! So much power in his performance.That is what makes me wild about him! He is a master!
I am a young man born in 1992, listening to rock, blues for whole of my life and just found out about mr. Winter via shazam. My favourite by far if i may say. It feels kinda right if you know what i mean.
THANKS FOR SHARING HIPPETY ....... GIVE EM HELL JOHNNY AND FORGET THE RIP, I KNOW DAMN WELL YOU ARE JAMMIN' WITH SOME OF THE BOYS YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IN A WHILE..... ROCK ON JOHNNY AND PEACE
I saw this tall peculiar brothers live when Johnny and all his band came down to Mexico City in the late '90 in a very small place in a San Angel esquina Revolucion joint,.... I was a marketing director and got invited by Radio 99.1 to listen to him and so went with my youngest son.... oooh man.... I told him.... grab me son´cause here He goes... they gonna fly reeeal loud.... best experience of my life at that moment.... Gracias Johnny
have you ever seen johnny in concert? it was the only time someone showed me what blues is all about/ i never lived the 30's but johnny's here now / he blows the doors off
I read these comments and I SMH. Johnny Winter is amazing. SRV is amazing, Muddy, BB, Hendrix et.al. Stop trying to judge one artist against an other. It's a foolish argument. It doesn't work for any artform. The art is only as good as the connection it makes between the artist and the observer. That is the point.
Couldn't say it any clearer than that,period. No list can be agreed upon. We all have different tastes and experiences, a moment when some riff or song touched our soul at the right time and became embedded forever in our memory.Enjoy your moments while you're able because life is fleeting and should not be wasted putting others down. It' s easy to put someone down, it's much harder to lift someone up!
This was sweet.Johnny was one of the best ever.He was an incredible singer,he could pick,he was incredible with a slide,he could play traditional with the best or straight rockin blues,anyway you wanted it,just blues personified.Man,listen to his voice,listen to the tone phrasing and the inflections.The guy was a prodigy.I saw him twice.I worked the stage at the Filmore West the first time and got to meet him and spent the entire time he played 10 feet from him sitting on the edge of the stage.I think I was 16.Unfortunately he drank too much and took too many F40's(seconal)the first night,we were all eating F40s like PEZ back then and couldn't play the first night,but he kicked ass the next night.He might have written a song about that,but he was the man.Saw him years later when he had to sit down the whole concert but he still blew the roof off the building
this is the best,all of the tones,the progressions,the whole fuckin; shootin' match,I used to think that Johnny Winter and live was the end all,but this here is an order of magnitude above!
When "Captured Live" came out we all went crazy! He just got better with every album. I've seen him more than any one I've seen. I'd go see him any day of the week. Just as awesome as it gets. He's the best blues player ever by far. He has never even tried to use a flat pick- it's all finger pickin. As a result.........I finger pick. I love this guy!
when i need to hear some way down deep blues , i always return to SIR Johnny Winter's performance here ! i'm just going to go ahead and give johnny's performance eleven stars out of 10 .. again .. ***********^
Haven't followed Johnny for maybe 5 years. Where have I been??? Absolutely fantastic! Takes me back to the early 60's when I first began to seek out some of the early blues men of the 30's and 40's. this presentation is by far the best of blues in its purest form. Hats off to you Johnny.
Super great Johnny Winter - Mississippi Blues ! I'm only a guitar player who looking for friends, fresh fruits and bandmates for the great times! All the best for everybody! Assa!
First saw him at a club in Houston the summer of 1966, the Act III, I was amazed by his energy and talent then and wasn't surprised when he became famous a few years later. Be at peace, John. You will be missed and remembered by many.
I just reviewed the comments below. Each artist brings himself , skills to each song. To try to rate them is hopeless. Each of us brings our life to the listening. Maybe it's part of our experience brought to the listening that creates difference in favorites. At he New Orleans jazz and arts festival I was heading between venues and sat on the grass watched a bluesman do his thing. Asked him What label he recorded on. He said "I don't know about no labels, I just play the blues". That's what the blues is all about.
I my 68 now and saw him over 100 times! From Madison Square Garden to small clubs in NY and NJ. I got his Chest tattoo, the Screaming Demon, on my arm.
definitely one of my favorite tunes. I listen to Johnny's music when I work & on road trips for comfort. good memories good times. R.I.P. Johnny, gonna miss you but your music will play on forever
I went to college with johnny and Edgar they were awesome,got to hear them just about every week when they weren't playing heard the Boogie Kings in Beaumont,Texas
The teacher (EW) and the student (SRV), but I bet if you asked them they'd say the reverse or on equal footing. No one really owns the blues, but on hearing it we all do, on a note by note basis...Thanks to folks like these for sharing this amazing talent...
Johnny's always been one of my favorites. I only wish he was in better health now. saw him many times in the 70s and 80s. always excellent. saw him on letterman a few months ago and daves response was classic and expressed great admiration for him. You just have to love the guy!
Johnny...I've seen you 6 times and loved every minute. You were the best! YOU knew how to rock...and YOU knew how to play the best blues. Nobody was/is better! We will miss you. You were absolutely incredible! I never heard you make a mistake. Every time I saw you...after the show...I said to myself..."Wow...how can a guitar player be that good?"...you were unbelievable...absolutely unbelievable." You showed the world how blues is supposed to be played. Many future blues guitarists will get their inspiration from you. "You are truly "THE"... "blues God!" Read moreShow less
Saw him in 72 had some chick dancing around with him.we were mesmerized we were all players and there this badass guitarist burning the joint up,had to throw water on him his neck caught fire !!
It took me years to figure out how to play that, mostly because I was flatout amazed by Johnny man...what a legend. Greatest white bluesman ever to me! Over Clapton and SRV. The Man was just so special! And btw today I finally figured it out - so happy!
Was very lucky to have seen him in the 70s in Houston, Tx. That was one helluva show!! Godspeed Johnny Winter..... you will be missed.... your music will live on forever. Rest In Peace
Great musician---I played sax in his band in 1967
niceee bro!
You r a big lucky motherfucker hell
It’s true, I was the sax “ 5th grade kidsjokes” Sorry , I just couldn’t help it.
@Gary Feola fuck off loser
Fantastic. You lucky bugger :)

Probably The Best Live Performance, I’ve Ever Heard. R.I.P Johnny Winter
One of the best EVER. What a loss!
The greatest ever. The man is in a class all by himself.
RIP Johnny ! Let's get him into the rock and roll hall of fame as he should be !
Saw Johnny dozens of times throughout the 70's & 80's. He never disappointed! Saw him as warm-up for for George Thorogood in Rochester in the early '80s. Crowd stood and brought him back for 6 encores! Now THAT'S a warm-up! Amazing blues legend!
We did the same thing in Norfolk Va Johnny blew the crowd away!!!!!!!
JDW a WARM UP???
HARD TO BELIEVE...maybe after his health declined, 80's he was KILLING the blues. That would be INSULTING to warm up ANYONE at that time!! George must've thought these promoters are IDIOTS!!!
again.. I will listen to this forever and ever.... and a bit longer.... hehe
had the pleasure seeing johnny in 72,73 came on stage , sat down, played some mississippi blues,and when all the people left, that no clue why they were there johnny and i and his enduring fans had a real good time.rip.
You will really die.. your uniquely unbelievable songs and music your special way is going to live on forever.
I love the way he mixes the acoustic style of playing Blues and then makes it electric
johnny and this blues will go down in history and listen to it for generations
Johnny Winter always looked so happy when he was performing!
RIP Johnny Winter ❤️‼️🎶🎶🎶

ahhhhh...the Delta blues just reaches in and grabs your heart.......R.I.P., Bluesman
Holy shit... Johny Winter, and a firebird. Rofl...I'm old enough to recognize both.
Johnny was the real deal. Started playing at a young age, sneaking into roadhouses and blues clubs sometimes being invited to sit in with the band. Paid his dues

Johnny & his Firebird still give me the chills ! Very cool seeing his wife Susan sitting side stage & groovin' to Johnny's playing. I still miss him.
Johnny was one of the greatest, and "Mississippi Blues" is a notoriously difficult tune to pic...... Johnny does it with ease and with beautiful blues passion.....tremendous....
How is it difficult? It has the regular 12 bar blues form.
First saw Johnny WINTER and Edgar on local television in Beaumont Texas i was about ten i thought they were great I love Johnny WINTER

Sounded soooo good I had to come back for another listen.
A genuine freak of nature. The lightest complected bluesman who ever was.
Best Texan Guitarist Alive amen, We all got the blues!
No throwaways, nothing wasted. Every note means something.
I went to college with johnny and Edgar they were awesome,got to hear them just about every week when they weren't playing heard the Boogie Kings in Beaumont,Texas
JUST AWESOME!

Johnny's always been one of my favorites. I only wish he was in better health now. saw him many times in the 70s and 80s. always excellent. saw him on letterman a few months ago and daves response was classic and expressed great admiration for him. You just have to love the guy!
