Johnny Winter... R.I.P.

[Bob Denman]

:shocked: We lost him last evening. He was touring...
R.I.P. ray:
Your Music lives on! :thumbup:

 

[sddinnh]

Too bad - he made some good blues music - RIP ray:

 

[Bob Denman]

He could cover the Blues, ballads, and hard rock; all in one sitting! :bowdown:
Never as commercially popular as Edgar; he was the FAR-more gifted Musician!
And what an axe-man... :bowdown::bowdown::bowdown:

 

[Pennyrick]

Such a talent

 

[bruiser]

One of the best. Sad day for music.

 

[Bob Denman]

This one wasn't written for him... But it could have been! :shocked:

 

[ARtraveler]

Kind of gets you to thinking don't it - maybe it's time to stop putting off those things that you want to get done. I think I will do Alaska next year.

:shocked: This one makes me tear right up...

Sad News

It seems we lose our musicians way to soon.

But as we know all to well, death is a part of life.

Listen to the words of this song, if it doesn't touch you just a little, somethings wrong with you.

I thought you were talking about Jonathon Winters.

 

[Bob Denman]

Johnny Winter recorded this osng first...
Rick Derringer re-released it several years' later.

I prefer THIS version!

 

[Magdave]

Rick WAS in Johnny's band. :thumbup:

 

[Bob Denman]

Yup! On THAT album... :thumbup:
I kind of thought that they could have had some KILLER "Dueling Leads"; they never really took advantage of all of that talent... :shocked:
I saw Johnny several times; once, Edgar made a surprise appearance onstage...
And I saw Edgar and his band once, and Rick Derringer showed up!

A huge loss of a great talent, but the music lives on. Wherever you are Johnny, keep on jammin!
