  • the shows began by this track in that year.Johnny warmed up his fingers by this one as Jeff Ganz told in an interview later.I had the opportunity to listen this later that year on 24 November 1991 in Vienna,Austria.The sound quality was as 1000 cd players would play from your stomach.We were nailed on the flour,shouting, could'nt beleive our ears.He received huge applause in each track after each of his lighting speed leads as on a jazz concert.The audience shouted thorought the whole gig.Shall never ever forget that evening.He still has the same appeal today,at 66,playing sitting.Plays slower,but crystal clear,his voice is the same,is helped on stage,but even then.An unbeliavable talent and a fine person.A true living legend.The Master.The Blues Himself.You can check his gigs at www.pollstar.com.

    The last time I saw Johnny...a nightclub in San Jose CA. After the show...we couldn't leave...the doors, handles, tables, chairs, floor, everything was "smoking hot!!! They had to call in the San Jose Fire Dept. to douse the entire nightclub with water...to cool it all off...so we could leave. Johnny...lit the place on fire!

    Words cannot begin to express how good this clip is, never mind its an amateur video, its captures two brilliant musicians in Johnny and Edgar in thier prime. Saw Johnny over 20 times and always had the same sense of "I am" watching greatness in front of me. His guitar was an extension of self. When he picked it up you knew something special was about to happen and it did. He is dearly missed by those who loved and appreciated his talent and life's work.

    johnny always was- and always will be, one of the greatest blues guitarists of all time- hands down. in my estimation probably the best. i started buying his albums on vinyl when i was in my teens to try to copy his licks, but to my eternal disappointment i never caught his act in a live performance. i just picked up a copy of his 2004 "i'm a bluesman" CD. its sad to listen to- sounds like the years were beginning to take their toll on the man. still a GREAT album, though.everything he did musically was great! R.I.P, to a great bluesman. goodbye johnny.

      Without a doubt , playing regular leads with the slide on his finger, Also Rory Gallagher played the same way at tha same time he was from Ireland played the States but mostly Europe. Died on Stage in England in about 95 laid up in hospital for 6 months before they pulled the plug.

    I liked this guy from the get-go!
    Over the years, I saw him play live, once in Richmond, VA,, twice in Memphis TN & twice in Baltimore, ,MD. The coolest show (and the last one I saw), was in Colonial Beach VA. This was the last time I saw him play live, I but was invited onto his bus, where we chatted with him for a while, and got him to autograph some stuff as well as pose for some pictures. He was very gracious to me and my small party. He was truly one of the greats!

    @walker7261981 That's a pretty silly thing to say. Johnny and Jimi were friends and jammed at The Scene. Johnny attended the opening of Electric Lady Studio as Jimi's guest. Jimi was enormously respectful of Johnny's playing. But if you need help understand why Johnny was so popular you may want to look up Be Careful With A Fool. This predated AND. Jimi loved that!

    Back in the 80s he was a regular at Summerfest in Milwaukee (where I'm originally from). Never missed a chance to see him. Didn't have the drawing power to play at the main stage like many of the LESSER talents, so those of us with taste got to see him for the price of admission to the festival. I still loved him enough to pay to see him when he'd show up at local rock bars or smaller concert halls. Glad I got to see him when he was still with us. RIP Johnny.

    Anybody hear Jimi and SRV in his playing? So do I. The fact is Jimi and SRV were trying to play like Johnny...and Johnny never got any credit from either. Johnny is one of the really under-appreciated guitarists of all time. It was always blues with Johnny...Guitar World/Guitar Player mag put the blues out on the porch in the '80s and left it there. They got caught up with Eddie Van Halen's weekly doings, then grunge, then metal, now shred metal. Today, it's like "What's blues?" reading these guitar mags. Shame.

      Hands down, without a doubt THE ABSOLUTE MOST underrated of all in the "Handful " of elite guitarists. I understand apples to oranges 100%, but a very legitimate argument can be made that JW'S the best to ever pick up a guitar.

      @j.h.lowery7934 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You got a point there. After seriously listening to this instead of just enjoying it, I can hear SRV, Lang and a few other axemen of that nature. This was a bad man!! RIP JW.

    • @fotofavoloso267
      @fotofavoloso267 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree with the SRV comparision.........but JH.........even if he was influenced by JW.......he still was an original.......the influence you hear in Hendrix is simply the approach to the blues.....not the sound and style.

    If this was one of the gigs in the Florida back in 91. I was there. Get a chance to tour around with them back in 91. I think you can see Johnny's Roadies Brian mark Dave. There was a slew of them. All of them great guys. The only outdoor concert I remember was St Pete. I tried to look it up but I could not find where he played in Orlando St Pete Fort Lauderdale. We was in Orlando and Pat Travers came in walked up to us that's just where Johnny was. We said he was in the tour bus. So we went to the tour bus for Johnny was and got to hang out with Pat Travers and Johnny. Years later at the open chord in Knoxville Tennessee got to see Pat Travers and reminded him of that. His eyes lit up and he remembered. still trying to see a video where Nick Atkins and Shane Ximenes Cuellar attended the shows. Being out on the road with Johnny was a blast
