    John and Edgar were both albino, which is super rare, to have two in the same family. They were always playing together since childhood, only about 21 months apart.
    Can't believe I almost forgot about John, but always loved Edgar's Frankenstein and both brothers were phenomenal, absolute legends!💓

    In the 70’s I saw an album in a bargain bin. It was Roadwork, which was live Edgar and Johnny, Rick Derringer, Jerry La Croix, and others still one of my favourites. Live double. Both wonderful musicians.

      The Roadwork album was one of my all time favorite Edgar Winter Albums. Has the absolute best version of Tobacco Road on it.

    Without knowing too much about Johnny Winter and not being able to compare his guitar playing, I was really happy with this track. Sometimes a dull audience which is not clapping, shouting and dancing does something special: It is called "Listening". 🙂👂
    You both are so entertaining. 😄👍

    I heard of him years ago and that is where he stayed until today. Now of an age where I can appreciate just how good he was. You also mentioned Alvin Lee and I had never heard of him.BUT I am now half way through the Keep Rockin album and in my element. This is just another reason to love what the Thamesmen have introduced me to over time.

    This brings back memories of my youth one Summer where my musical tastes changed from The Monkees and Bee Gees to Jimi Hendrix and Johnny Winter. I remember arguments about who was faster Alvin Lee or JW. Johnny was at his best when he was playing slide guitar. Unfortunately, he was prone to addiction and picking bad/dishonest management. I got to see him four times, the last time a few years before he passed, and while he was near 70, having lived a rough life on the road, needed help on stage almost exclusively performing while sitting down, BUT when he picked up that guitar he was still amazing. Yes, Frankenstein is an Edgar Winter song (you will be amazed) that had its origin when he was sitting in with Johnny.

    Look at the bassist. That's Tommy Shannon who much later played with Stevie Raye Vaughan and Double Trouble.

  • @sean---the-other-one
    @sean---the-other-one 10 месяцев назад +1

    I was thinking I could hear some of the roots that Stevie Ray Vaughan would grow from, and the you (George) said it was Tommy Shannon on bass, so it made perfect sense.
    I had to go back and look as I didn’t focus on the player, I just noted the Jazz Bass he was using.

    I've always been a fan of Johnny Winter and he is part of the biggest mismatch concert that I've ever seen. In 1982 I saw him open up for a band called April Wine in Vancouver. April Wine were one of the biggest rock bands in Canada at the time, excluding Rush of course. Despite that, they were no match for Johnny Winter and the band he had with him, so they blew April Wine off the stage, which was no small feat considering they were in their prime. Now I realise you guys don't know who April Wine is, I'll have to remedy that at some point. Enjoyed this video. Frankenstein is by the Edgar Winter band, who is Johnny's brother.

    Lot of humour in Johnny's music, I think he liked lyrics that had a twist to them. When I was at highschool I accidently bought one of his brothers LPs for 10c. Only played it once (not all of it either) but Johnny's I nearly wore out. I also noticed the headstocks on a lot of his guitars were of similar profile to his hooter. Great guitarist and I think my fave track of his is Avocado Green - from 1969's About Blues

      @@christhecurator I prefer Tobacco Road but can see doing Frankenstein as it had more airplay and would be more recognizable.
      Either way for me both are great. Tobacco Road re by the Nashville Teen
      Either one would be great for me. Frakestein would be more crowd friendly as its had more air play.

    Johnny's version of Dylan's
    'Hwy 61 Revisited' was Johnny's finest slide work in my opinion.
    'Second Winter ' is the album and to confuse further Johnny released the song about the same time Dylan did. I Posted when soused.
    Johnny's cover of Hwy 61 is worth a listen.

    If you think he's not the fastest, you need to hear him do Rollin' and Tumblin' or Mean Town Blues. This performance was about the sloppiest I've ever heard him, and one of his less renowned songs. Please check out more, I'm sure we can get a 9 or 9.5 out of him! 🤘😊👍

    I can't complain about the scoring, somewhere in the 7 to 8 range is appropriate in my book. Regarding the song, "Frankenstein," Alex, that is his brother Edgar's band (Edgar Winter Group); it is a terrific song!
    Getting back to Johnny Winter, I thought that he definitely had that Texas blues-rock guitarist sound. Johnny Winter, Billy Gibbons (of ZZ Top), and Stevie Ray Vaughan -- to name three -- all got a similar sound or tone out of their guitars, in my opinion. They didn't play the same or have the same amount of talent by any stretch, but the sound of the guitars was similar; wondering if you guys might agree with that?

    • @TheThamesmen
      @TheThamesmen  9 месяцев назад

      Thanks for guidance. Yup they do have similar tones for sure. Is that just a factor of the style of music they play?

    Moreso than normal?!? I am looking forward to this!
    Not sure who is more horrible, Alex with his complete insensitivity to other people or George for laughing so hard at it. Or me for finding it just as funny.
    Johnny or Edgar Winter, you can't go wrong listening to either. They are really good together too. I would go 9.3 because blues played with that kind of feeling and technique are ridiculous great. Your ratings are criminally low if you call yourselves blues fans. :) You did tell me to go listen to Alvin Lee though, so all is forgiven!
    Unbelievable that George is not up on albinos. And that Alex is obsessed...
