    The definitive breakthrough for the Rockpalast came on the fourth night, from 21st to 22nd April: The Grugahalle in Essen - the traditional staging location at this point, and it remained so for the next ten years -was completely sold out for the first time (an audience of 10,000) - which also remained the case: The subsequent Rockpalast Nights were sold out even before the program was announced. The expectation that it would be good, regardless of the performers, was confirmed by the line-up in this fourth night. At prime time (News, Weather, Word for Sunday, Rockpalast) it was shown live again on the first TV channel and Europe-wide - from Italy to the North Cape - via Eurovision; the program only ended when the last note was played. No time limit was set; one could only guess when it would end. An “American Night”. It began with the J. Geils Band rhythm and blues; they wanted a “marching band” as introduction, and got it. They were followed by the Pattie Smith Group, who transported US to higher levels, and the concert culminated in blues music, which has influenced American music as no other has. In this night Johnny Winter, who had played at Woodstock, irrevocably established his name in Europe. He gave one of the most important concerts in the total 17 Rockpalast Nights (till 1986). He continued the blues trend of the Rockpalast, including the Johnnie Wells classic “Messin’ with the Kid”, which Rory Gallagher had opened the first Rockpalast Night with.
    Johnny Winter arrived in Düsseldorf and immediately wanted to watch our Muddy Waters concert (1978) tape on the video recorder in my room. He was very short-sighted, due to his albinism, and sat about ten centimeters from the screen and watched the show from beginning to end in this position. He was fascinated by Muddy Waters and obviously very pleased with our recording. Johnny said, “If you managed so well with a seven-man band, then I don’t think we need to rehearse. We are only three men!” But this was not what the producer, Christian Wagner, had in mind, of course. We had allowed a whole day’s rehearsals each for Johnny and the other groups. We had agreed that Johnny would play for 80 minutes. But when he went on stage long after midnight, his tour manager asked me, “Can he play for two hours, too?” “O.K., let him”, I answered. We and the WDR were very flexible when it came to live programs on the first channel (ARD) at that time. We experienced all the power and flair of Johnny’s guitar playing in long solos. He concentrated solely on the blues. But later, when the audience needed more movement and wanted some rock’n’roll, he gave them what they wanted, e.g. “Johnny B. Goode” and “Jumping Jack Flash”. Patti Smith, who considered it an honor to be on a stage with Johnny Winter, stood in front of the stage with her clarinet in her hand. She wanted to jam. But Johnny was so absorbed in his own music and emotions that he did not notice.

    Getting goose pimples - because I was on this concert when I was 17.
    I was lucky that we lived only 40 mins by walking (by ourselves) from the venue.
    Remember well when I came back home in the early morning hours, nothing but the blues in my ears, lasting till today!

    As some people have already said in the comments, Johnny was a bit pretentious, but he brought the rock when it was wanted. I remember watching songs from this gig about 15 or so years ago and copying what i saw and heard. Now i am more mature and almost totally understand what i'm witnessing, good and bad, mind you. This concert has brilliance and pure punkiness too.

    • @adub59

      I have to laugh…Johnny Winter pretentious? Johnny was simply Johnny. He was an albino, brought up on the South Texas coast listening to the blue, what was then a traditionally black man’s music. Keeping in mind this was the 60’s, it is just mind blowing what he did.He dabbled in rock and roll, but he was a blues man through and through. He started sneaking into blues clubs in Texas as a teenager. These were blues clubs where white people did not generally go, but here is this skinny, very very white kid just wanting to play. Guess what…he was accepted. So, if you come out of the actual black blues scene, you are not pretentious, culturally appropriating or whatever. You are the real deal.

      @@adub59 I know all about Johnny Winter because i used to try to play and sing like him. I gave up because it's too hard, but Johnny was talking down to the audience and acting like he was above them with his taste. That is the definition of pretentious to me. Thinking that you are superior because of musical taste/knowledge. Fuck that, it's all good music really and Johnny was awesome.

      @loulasher 6 дней назад

      As I understand it, he really hated the rock image and everything. He just wanted to play blues, as he makes clear in the video. But his management & record company decided, and sold him as a rock & roll act, and had him do that. I have no idea what freedom he had when recording or how much of it he's complicit in. I've seen people say a lot of his drug abuse came from the stress around this artistic conflict. I feel like the way he plays on the "rockers" here is almost like an artistic act of protest, over-playing every lead riff or cliche 10 feet into the ground.
      I feel bad because I love everything from Live Johnny Winter And through John Dawson Winter III, which I suspect are his most rock & pop albums, but I imagine he hates those.

    Als Kind haben wir immer gewitzelt, wenn der Johnny mal stirbt müssen wir ihm die Hände separat totschlagen, das seine Hände sonst wahrscheinlich aus dem Sarg wieder herauskommen und er einfach weiterspielt. Er ist dann später trotzdem noch in Bülach wo ich wohne, relativ ruhig eingeschlafen. Auch mit seinem Bruder Edgar hatte er ein paar interessant musikalische Experimente gemacht. RIP

    An excellent performance, but I was less than enthralled with his in-between comments about the audience. It's hard to tell from this, but if the audience didn't like the blues numbers, he didn't make things any better by making cracks like volume rather than quality (before JJF) or hoping that one person might understand the blues. A lot of this seemed to be in his head, but it didn't help matters to insult your audience or to suggest that he was slumming it by playing rock'n'roll. I'm sure there were plenty of people who spoke enough English to understand that their taste was being dissed.
