Damn another of my Rock/Blues hero's has died. That rock and roll band in Heaven has just gained another great guitar player. I remember once he pulls up to the front door of the Warehouse in a hearse (he drove that thing everywhere) parked on the sidewalk got out said hi to everybody standing waiting to get in, pulled his guitar case out of the back and walked in.
From Rolling Stone back when they actually reviewed music: "If you can imagine a 130-pound, cross-eyed albino with long fleecy hair playing some of the gutsiest, fluid blues guitar you ever heard, then enter Johnny Winter," wrote Larry Sepulvado and John Burks in the issue. "At 16, [Mike] Bloomfield called him the best white blues guitarist he ever heard.... No doubt about it, the first name that comes to mind when you ask emigrant Texans about the good musicians that stayed back home is Winter's."
