When I was young and just starting to play, I was obsessed with Johnny Winter’s blues rock soloing prowess.
Fast forward to right now - 2019 - his brother Edgar Winter is coming over to my studio and having me record guitar parts on a Johnny Winter tribute record !!!!
Here’s the story, and a free TH-cam lesson on soloing in the style of Johnny

" Be careful with a fool " possibly the best blues rock song ever! Love Johnny Winter! Thanks Tim!

“possibly” hell. I think it’s the best song ever recorded. Pure, raw, unreal clean and emotional. I’m thrilled to hear you say it though. Not enough people know of his genius.
A gift from God. The Picasso of guitar playing
I played guitar with Edgar for a bunch of shows in the mid ‘80s, which was a joy. He’s a true genius and a sweetheart of a guy, and his songs are so fun to play!
Wow, quite a history you have. That must have been an amazing experience.
I've worn out more copies of Johnny Winter And than I can remember. I've owned more Firebirds than any other guitar. I've played professionally 50 years and Johnny is still required listening every day
Best Comment Award...
@THOMAS COSSETTE oof but at least SRV didnt get drunk on stage and sound trash
It was Johnny Winter And live for me.
@@andrestevens930 Johnny either
Hi Tim. I am a Leelion who is a music producer in Korea. Today, the record of a musician named Shin Hae-cheol, who became a deceased person now in Korea, was released. He is a hero to me. I saw your name in the album credits. I am so happy to hear the music of two musicians whom I admire so much. Thank you for participating in this album.
I get chills just remembering the first time I heard Johnny back in 1968.
Johnny Winter is an okay guitarist I guess... I mean I only started listening to him in '69 and have only seen him live 50 times. Hell I never drove more than three days to see him play. It's not like I have his entire discography... I don't own the one talked about here...yet. Okay, so I have one of his guitars but that's only because he gave it to me, it's not like I went out and bought the darn thing. Yeah, one of the walls in my music room is covered in Johnny Winter concert posters and memorabilia, but hey, what was I supposed to do? That wall looked empty and dull. That lady in Hollywood who sells rare and hard to find posters keeps selling JW stuff to me so I have to put it somewhere and the Rory Gallagher wall was taken. Sure he is always in my iPod... what am I supposed to do... listen to other Blues guitarists all day?
🤙Johnny is the 🐐
Memory pain. I spent 6 months of continuous practice. I ran my old lady off
I saw Johnny Winter live at The Shaboo in Mansfield, Connecticut back in 1978. Unbelievable performance. Blew the doors off a packed house.
@@TomKaszuba I saw him the year before he passed away... I was excited because I was taking my brother and his friend to see JW for their first time. I had talked him up for months and played them several JW albums, then took them both to see him.
When they announced him I was all jacked-up and excited... then he came out with s shuffling step, hand on a guys shoulder, being led to the stage. The guy took JW's hand off his shoulder, then went to set up his little chair. While he was doing this JW looked confused and started to walk off stage, but his guide got him and helped to his chair, then took up his guitar off the stand. I was sad thinking that this was going to be my bro's first Johnny Winter experience. and then the guy put that guitar in Johnny's hands... and for the next hour+ my brother and his friend had their ears pierced and the thier minds blown.
I knew Johnny in the 70s and had seen him at his worst, so I should have known he was going to shine! I had tickets to go see him when he died.... that was a sad freakin' day for me.
Part of history, not perfect, but his rareness, plus he had big hits for him
Johnny Winter is part of Every Guitar Players DNA... Loved seeing him MANY times!
The Roadwork live album version of Johnny Winter playing Rock 'N Roll Hootcie Koo was one of the most influential solos embedded in my guitar DNA. Enjoyed this video! Thanks, Tim.
That "Johnny Winter And" album rocks like bloody hell. Johnny and Rick Derringer just tear it up. Yeah, I wore it out, too. :)
I had the experience of not hearing Johnny Winter And for decades and think "Wow! That's where I get my blues licks!"
Listened to it a bunch when I was a teenager. Lent out forever.
Thanks for your videos. You're like a tasteful guitar teacher for people that are already pretty good.
Johnny and Edgar's Roadwork Live is one of the greatest albums ever.
Rick Derringer guitar on Back in the USA one of the best pieces of guitar work ever.
Johnny Winter "captured live"...one great live record...
That album knocked me out when i heard it. i thought "jimmy WHO?". i was young and had never heard anything like it. it put the guitar in my hands. what i loved about him was he was flat out balls to the wall. just goddamn go for it. nothing less, but somehow it seemed without ego; just soaring.
One of the coolest aspects of soloing over one chord is the freedom. As long as you know how to come back inside, you can get very interesting sounds by going outside of the harmony.
Him and Derringer did my dna in too ....great video boss
I learned to play guitar listening to "Still Alive And Well" by Johnny Winter. Wore several copies of that album out. Always preferred "Captured Live to "Johnny Winter And". Johnny's slide solo on the live version of "Highway 61 Revisited" from "Captured Live" is epic. Probably the greatest rock slide guitar performance ever.

No probably about it. The best
I still have Captured Live on vinyl. Great album.
Johnny Winter, Jimi Hendrix and Leslie West are my main influences growing up. Johnny was a unique guitar player for his time. He used a thumb pick and was a hard core Blues Guitarist that rocked the house. No one plays or sounds anything like Johnny. Jimi liked Johnny's guitar playing so much he would some times play bass when they jammed. Jimi also played bass on his early recordings. I don't think most people realize how good Johnny really was. I do. He was a killer guitar player!
That's a solid 3 guitarists right there! Not to mention all 3 were great singers too
When you mentioned Johnny Winter And Live, my arm hairs stood up! I used to be able to drop the needle on that album in my head and listen to it without the record. Finest live album for rock guitar players.
I've recently discovered Johnny Winter. Heard of him all my life, but only lately realized how much i like his playing. What a guy, he never gets boring. I'm buying a Firebird this week ;) Thanks for your vid
I have always LOVED Epic Rock instrumentals like ELO's Fire On High, Elton Johns Funeral For A Friend, and Kansas's Magnum Opus, but for me the ultimate is Edgar Winter's Frankenstein, sonically amazing and unbeatable, and the genius Riffs never stop coming. Edgar and his band mates created a Masterpiece! Please let Edgar know that Jim Hawthorne LOVES him, and Frankenstein will always be my favorite of all time. Edgar.... you Genius!
Just heard a song from the JW And... live album this morning by way of my portable music player while on a dog walk. Johnny B. Good, specifically. Yep, you aren't the only one out there still listening to JW and Rick Derringer after all these years. That said, I might as well drop this story about you here: My neighbor is from a well known Hollywood family who often participates in various charity events in L.A. and Palm Springs. Recently after one such event in Palm Springs he made mention that he did a live comedy bit on stage in front of a crowd. The bit was him singing along to the Sinatra song, Something Stupid, duet style with someone singing Nancy Sinatra's part. He showed me the video on his phone. I asked who his singing partner was. "Oh, she's married to the long time guitarist of Rick Springf... and before he could finish his name, I said, "Tim Pierce." He looked at me stunned. "How could you possibly know that?" I had to remind him I know a thing or two about musicians. ;)
When you say Edger Winter my brain says "Easy Street" ! What an absolute GAS it must be to see the Edger machine live and in personal... Thanx Tim, and thanx for all your vids. You help keep me enthusiasm up and tickin'.. cheers
TIM, THANKS FOR COVERING MR. WINTER, A GREAT GUITARIST THAT NEVER GOT THE RECOGNITION HE DESERVED, WHEN I BOUGHT HIS FIRST ALBUM, '' THE PROGRESSIVE BLUES EXPERIMENT '', I COULD NOT BELIEVE WHAT I HEARD, I STILL THINK THIS WAS HIS BEST ALBUM, COUSIN FIGEL
Thanks so much
I love that album and almost wore it out, and years I got the CD so I could still listen
LOVE that whole (side and a half) record Second Winter! Edgars solo on Miss Ann still KILLS me! And Johnny is one of my all time favorite singers. Guit, rhy and solo, too.
Good job, Mr. Tim!
Mahalo TIm!!! I saw Johnny a few years ago...I was literally five feet from him, at a small venue in Honolulu. I still get chicken skin thinking about it.
Cool video Tim. I was fortunate enough to grow up down Interstate 10 not too far from Johnny and Edgar Winter. Edgar Winter is not only a great musician, he is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet, he has a heart of gold. 👍👏🎸😎✌️🇺🇸
I am a 62 year old working muscian myself..i love your johnny winter lead guitar style..WOW.
I owned a sound company in virginia beach for many years..and i love johnny winter..and had the chance to see him twice and got to meet him on 2 occasions in the 90s..i had the chance to see edgar at jewish mother in virginia beach back in the 90s but i was booked that night to do sound for POD...there will never be another blues man like johnny..in my opinion he was the best blues guitar player singer there EVER WAS OR IS..PERIOD!!
SWEET JESUS....this guy......holy moly....so effortlessly....everything....good grief.
Giddy as a kid meeting his guitar hero....AWESOME!!! Johnny Winter is a Monster on guitar
My father burned Johnny and Edgar into my brain as a child, is definitely part of my musical DNA as well!
I’m looking forward to hearing the finished album.
Omygarsh...Tims at it again.Has a homing device for great musicians..
Oh Tim youre up there with the greats...
Johnny was a monster!
Tim, I love watching you doing what you love....
That look at :44 It's the look of slaying it. I love that feeling!
Johnny and Edgar winter are great.
Your the man Tim. I once arrived late to see Johnny Winter at San Francisco's Old Waldorf club. No seats left so the security guy says you can stand here and puts me right in front of the stage about 10 feet to the right of Johnny. The man sure could play.

Captured live . Best ever
Well this will be something to look forward to. Rock on!
love the Johnny Winter And Album. I grew up with it.
Awesome lesson!! Johnny winter is at the top of my guitar heroes list! Thank you!
Im on it!!
Damn fool you're crazy RESPECT.........my lit up ass just does 1st position high and 5th postion for dynamics to trick them ...respect to a REAL deal player
Johnny Winter captured live is also great, I was in the audience..
I think it's the best live album ever, even better than UFO's Strangers in the Night. Highway 61 Revisited is superb!
I love the phrase "guitar dignitaries." That Tim Pierce has great phrasing! Great video. I love that explorer.
It's not an Explorer. It's a Firebird.
I’m a guitar player from Texas and love Johnny Winter and also listened to his live and recorded music as I was learning to play. I like your DNA analogy. Isn’t it cool how we are all connected in so many ways. How we share each other’s energy and molecules. Nice vid. Btw, I was in the middle of my lesson withJeff McErlain when you called him Monday. Another example of 6 degrees of separation or something.
Tim, your just bad ass! you capture the great Johnny Winter to a T.
I "had" the Roadwork album on vinyl, and now have it on CD. I was introduced to it about... I'm thinking 1973 when I was 12 by my aunt. I'm thinking she was in high school. I took it to school(7th grade) on a music share day in choir class. This was when generic kiddie pop like "billy, don't be a hero" was harmlessly popular. When asked to share what I had brought... it lasted about 20 seconds. I don't recall which song I had chosen to share, but the teacher had a grimace on his face that suggest he thought my selection was hardly appropriate for kids my age. I still love the combining of rock, blues, r&b and a great horn section. Johnny Winter could be as visceral as a sonic baseball bat, or as soulful as need be. One of my favs is still "Please Come Home for Christmas" done by both of the Winter men off the "Hey, where' your Brother" CD. Truly epic musicians.
Hot white and blue a superb album from johnny. Killer blues harp on that one.
How Johnny isn’t in the rock and roll hall of fame I have no idea. For an organization that claims to honor rock and roll they have truly messed up on this one. We need to start a movement to get Johnny in!
God bless you, god bless you!!! Im not religious but, long live Johnny and Edgar Winter and Gobson Firebirds! RIP Johnny! Thank you, Tim.

...saw Johnny every time I could since 77. The last time was in a suburb of Chicago a year before we lost him. I waited outside his RV for him. It had a wheelchair ramp. I walked alongside him and put my hand on his shoulder and said "Johnny you're the best " he didn't really respond,but I'm glad I got to tell him how I feel ❤
Tim, just want to say thank you for your generosity in sharing your skills.
Huge Johnny Winter fan especially Johnny Winter &
I`m so happy that a legend like you, gave those credits to Johnny. He was (and still is) one of my heroes. And those licks are so precious. And well played, ofcourse. Thank you!
Such an under-appreciated master of ROCK AND BLUES...Johnny Winter. I listened to the great Still Alive and Well LP one hundred thousand times as a teenager!!!! And of course, dreamed of owning a Gibson Firebird!
I had Johnny Winter And live, which I bought after seeing them at Howard Steins in Portchester and I saw Edgar Winter with Ricky Derringer in Westport about a year after.
Yeah, that Johnny Winter was one of those next level players
Johnny. I too fell in love with the And Live album as a young player. Great stuff.
What a perfect video for my Saturday night... Edgar Winter's Roadwork is still one of my all time fav albums !
Perseverance. Dreams come true.
Saw Johnny in Minneapolis in 1970 with J Geils as the opener. The stage was only about two feet high and we sat about 6 feet from it. He was phenomenal!
Saw the pics Ross posted of you and Edgar ...Ross was my first mentor in the Audio Biz at Rhumbo Recorders back in '85....I even met Edgar @ his home in BH when I worked on his PT rig...He asked me if he'd bother me while doing vocal exercises. I said "Of course not, Edgar.." (OMG HE"S GONNA SING??) And for the next hour or so, I installed software to Edgar Winter singing his A#$ off 5 feet away from me....It is the Ultimate thrill to work with our heroes, isn't it? You're the best, Tim. Hope to meet you someday...Maybe the Write Off or Ireland's 32 for a jamm...
That's so awesome! Glad you are getting to do the album.
The album Johnny Winter And sustained me through my youth and early adulthood !
Hilarious Tim. I'm from Mississippi and please send a, "Hello " to Edgar. Just to let y'all know Mississippi loves y'all! You're killer!😉
Saw Johnny many times The best was the Lone Star Cafe in NYC July 4 1977. I was 3 feet away sitting on the bar. Johnny played the best and longest show i ever saw him do and went home with a woman 10 years older than me. I was 17.
Tim, you're the best Teach. My arthritis will give me a fit on this.
I can't wait!!! This is a dream come true. Ronnie Montrose was one of my FAVORITE guitar players, ie Voyager - Town Without Pity really show his shine! And then you mention Doug Rappaport (? spell) who is my favorite modern day guitarist/composer! Just listen to his compositions that he makes for his product demos. Just magnificent compositions and executions. Everyone is different and insane. I love that guy! Love the Mini Humbuckers - so much, that back in '71 or '72 I bought a LP Deluxe with mini's and I just love love it. It crunches but also gets real sweet when you need it. Would love to see your session(s) with Edgar, so the question is - are you gonna video and post it? Carry on with your great work! Alp
Johnny was my favorite-saw him several times in Detroit. Great 3 sided album. Did see Edgar in ‘73 at Eastern Michigan University. He played Frankenstein; was amazed when he set his keyboard down on the stage and it kept playing and he stepped back and played the drums.
I really enjoy your channel Tim, thanks for all the great help!!
Watch so many “seen it already” guitar videos on a lazy Sunday. Then this, so different and unique. Brilliant Tim! Bravo!
Don't know why Tim, but this one just seemed to be one of my favorites. Your enthusiasm is inspiring. Keep it up. 🙏
awesome job!! ...killer playing Tim thanks..keep on rockin!!
Tim you always look like you are having a blast. Rock on
Love that guitar, I had a Les Paul delux with the mini humbler back in the eighty’s, it was awesome. 😊
TIm - went to see Johnny Winter at the NY Fillmore back in......the day and the Allman Bros were the opening act! they killed it and recorded "live at the fillmore" but JW came out and stepped it up - with RIck Derringer ...you know the album - the pinnacle for me is "it's my own fault" - Johnny solo at that is just sick.
love johnny and edgar grew up learning that music great video ur great tim pierce glad i found ur channel
Many Thanks Tim. I love Johnny Winter. I saw him live several times and eventually got to hang out with him and visit for a while. I also love the feeling and sound of the neck through Firebird. I also play a 61 Les Paul SG reissue. I really appreciate your help and lessons. Many Thanks Brother. MLLH&R
Me too tim johnny was the first blues gutarist i became facinated with...altho ive yet to acomplish what you have....nothing but respect for you and Johnny
Tim, Tim, Tim...I love your stuff. The master class is a great help for my slow self. Thanks.
Johnny was the best I ever saw! He had his own style.....
I've got to have that all star album
So when we hear this part we will know it's Tim Pierce
I like that
Just like the old days where we'd chase around record shops for albums with people like Jeff Porcaro or Paul Jackson Jr in the credits
THANKS for sharing Tim... you are Right
Johnny Winter And with Rick Derringer!!!!! Rock & Roll Hootchie-Koo, greatest rock song of all time! No, really.
Saw them live at Fillmore West and yes, burned out both albums.
Tim, You The Man.
I was at that show as well Doc! Mind-blowing!
@@noahjuan2234 Do you remember who was the middle opening band that Rick sat-in with?
Fillmore/Winterland, BGP: greatest venues ever...
@@docwill184 I don't remember the other acts, but I remember the place was packed! I was at the back under the light show ops. Loved the Carousel Ballroom!
Absolutely love that intro lead! Been listening to it over and over.
👍👍👍👉 Tim Pierce 'is the best 👈👏👏👏
The lick starting at 7:30 - for me it is a lot easier to play if I use my little finger on the 1st string and my 2nd and 3rd fingers together for the bend on the second string.
Johnny Winter has also been one of my top favorites ever since I first saw him on German Rockpalast in 1979. Before that I mostly listened to hard rock, discovering Johnny Winter basically started my lifelong passion for blues.
Great to hear the love for Johnny and Edgar. Roadwork is such an amazing record.
LOve the Winters!!! Sweet axe!! You Rock!! Tim!
Love Johnny Winter stuff. Cool!
Great video Tim! JW is THE MAN!! One of my all-time favorites.
Firebird!!! Bought it!!! Nice, Tim. Thanks for the awesome history and playing lesson. Can't wait for that album to come out. Cheers!
That was fun to watch! Thanks for the lesson.
Wonderful guitar and solo.
Great to see you touching on johnny.. my first concert..and one of the greats.. thanks
Wow! Tim, this is an Amazing video!! Working with your heroes! Congratulations to all of your hard work that’s brought you here! I remember seeing Johnny Winter as a kid in England, truly incredible experience!!
I watched the intro three times already!! Amazing!
Warren thanks so much! that means a lot
You are the man@@timpierceguitar! Such fluidity! Unparalleled!
@@timpierceguitar Great vid, man! I've heard the headstocks on those Firebirds are super fragile though. When you doinked it on the table I tensed up a little, haha!
Been buying copies of Johnny Winter And Live since it was new. One of the few that I have in every format that I'm aware it's available in (Vinyl, 8-track, cassette, CD, streaming files). Bobby Caldwell on drums who also played on Rick Derringer's hit version of "Hoochie Koo", with Captain Beyond, and Armageddon (with Keith Relf).
Tim, you are too humble. You are a guitar star!
I can listen to Johnny and Tim play all day. I'm off today, so I believe I will.
What a nice sounding firebird! Great looks too!
