Johnny Winter was an outstanding guitarist. He is truly missed.
A guitar tone that could
break your ribs. It’s criminal how underrated he is
I, Kept this video! Because... That was a Kickin tune. I, To See Edgar Winter. He pulled this Surprise. " People ask me... Where is your Brother?" He came out. And, Played Jumping jack flash, Rockin Roll Hoochie coo. And, I, Can't remember the name of the Third. But What a Pleasant Surprise for $4.00 .😁🍿✌️🕊️
First time I heard Johnny was at a friends who had just bought this new album, “Johnny Winter And, Live”. Absolutely incredible. Been a fan ever since. They always talk about Clapton, Beck and Hendrix as the Guitar Gods, but Johnny was right there. Ialways got the feeling he just wanted to play. Fame meant nothing to him. A sad day when he passed.
Many others were too. Beck was so unique that he is incomparable. The rest of the guitar gods list is too long to list.
It was the same for me.....a friend's brother bought that album and then I borrowed it........first song I ever played at age 14 on my parent's stereo.......that was the beginning for me........
Yep me and a buddy dam near wore that album out !!
Same here...my cousin 3 years older..same album.
Fan for life and guitar player as well. R.I.P. johnny
My 2 favorite songs on that live album were his renditions of Jumping Jack Flash and Johnny B. Goode.
I was born in 1978. They´re trowing those jewels in 1973. We´re in 2023 and I can´t do that. I fell useless. Damn!
Thanks for this nice version. Since 50 years I am listening to a lot of music of almost any style. But from time to time there is a moment where I need just pure and raw music, no glamor and no glitter but played with devotion and excellence and than I play Johnny Winter. I had the honor to watch him live 3 times and he always was at 100% from first moment on. I always thought he and his guitar are one piece. RIP Johnny and thank you so much for your music.
🏆🤗🙏🇺🇲
Pride of Beaumont Texas⭐. Johnny passed in 2014 💔
Edgar is his mid seventies ❤️
Thank you for sharing
I was lucky enough to meet Johnny at LAX, as we were on the same flight. He was so gracious. Maybe because we were both from Texas... but think because he was just a genuinely good person.
Edgar and Monique what a love story❤❤
johnny was perhaps the greatest guitarist alive during this time period. No one else was laying it down like him
Still is
Johnny is pure energy...
Pure rock and roll. Where's the rock nowadays
I graduated High School in June 1973. Lord sweet Jesus ....
Johnny dressed glam and was a blues legend.
Johnny just loved this song. He usually always played it at some point during his concerts. To be honest he takes this Rolling Stones cover to a WHOLE other level.🔥❤️🔥♨️🎸
Amen.. Best ever version, stones passed him quite a bit of stuff around this time. Was the first guitarist to sign a record deal over a million (‘68)
@@Jfhfi678 I couldnt find anything about it. Whats the source?
@@onatdolekoglu his Columbia deal? It’s probably in his book raisin cane. I don’t recall where I heard it. Steve Paul recognized his immense talent, highest $$ deal of a solo guitarist at the time
@@Jfhfi678 thankee.
You think he spent some of that record deal money on the bands stage attire? Johnny went all out with the jewels. Probably said “ if we’re gonna be live on national television we’re going to be looking good while kicking ass”.
Johnny Winter And Live is one of the best live albums ever made. Rick Derringer/Johnny were a great rock/blues guitar mesh.
Yes, It's one on my favorites as well. I think Still alive and Well kicks ass from start to end.
The 'Live Johnny Winter And' album was worn out at our parties when we were teenagers.It was continously on rotation.RIP Johnny and Randy Jo Hobbs and a shout out to Rick Derringer and Bobby Caldwell.
Having grown up in that era, all I can say is that he was a bad bad bad man. The dude is top ten in my book
He's in my top 3.
Top 3 all well
Randy Jo Hobbs laying down the amazing low-end! RIP! ❤
Chording the "boogie rhythm" on bass.👍
Randy Jo was a great bass player RIP
Johnny Winter needs to be in the r'n'r hall of fame yesterday!
He's in my R&R HOF and that's good enough for me.
That's hard to believe. With all the stiffs they put in there. I don't think Edgar is either. The both of them together would surely draw attention to the hall in Cleveland. With those two, Rick Derringer would be appropriate.
RRHOF is a JOKE!
Just the fact he's not in there and Run DMC is. in my mind makes it no great honor to be in the RRHOF!!!
I bet Johnny doesn't give a shit
Just the greatest. He's always been the only musician never to have a duff track that you skip on an album. Miss ya Johnny.⭐
Johnny Winter - Champion and Legend
My older stepbrother introduced me to the awesomness that was Johnny Winter through this song, as performed on "Johnny Winter And- Live"- still one of my all-time favorite live albums. As others have said here, he's on fire here- as usual.
Mid-70's, I was a DJ at a small radio station in my hometown. We had a couple of singles from Johnny Winter And - Live, "Jumpin' Jack Flash" and " Johnny B. Goode". That was my introduction to Johnny.
I'm quite thankful that, just a couple of years or so before his death, I was able to see him perform live at the Birchmere in Alexandria, VA. Birchmere's a different kind of venue, basically dinner theater style, and only seats about 200 or so. You sit at tables, and can order food before the show and drinks. First come, first seated, people line up at the door before opening. As you file in, you get a number (whether you pre-bought a ticket or buy at the door). When they open the actual venue, you're seated in that order. So, come early and wait to have your choice of seating. Small place, though, so any seat is closer than you would be anywhere else. We went early for Johnny, got a seat at one of the tables next to the stage. The far end of the table, so we were about 4 seats away from the stage. Johnny's stool was centered on the table that was behind me.
Sadly, at that point he wasn't moving very well, nothing at all like in this video. He hobbled out on stage, led by an assistant, who seated him and handed him his guitar. However, once he settled in, he came alive playing. Hadn't lost a lick. Just did it all sitting down. Awesome show. They even went through the encore pantomime of "leaving the stage". Except, he just hobbled over to the corner and huddled up with the others. Then returned to center stage for the encore. However, even as bad as his physical health appeared to be, he still kicked ass playing that guitar, and I'm very thankful I got to see him.
His album (Captured live) is a great one.
@@cindysue5474I can second that. Incredible guitars and drums. Bought it when it first came out and still play it regularly today.
Johnny Winter And - Live is an incredible album experience. I've had it in my collection from the time it was released.
@brolinofvandar I also saw Johnny Winter late in his career. He was the headliner at a Blues Festival in the Midwest. He could barely move, and needed help getting to his chair. Once he sat down and they handed him his guitar 🎸 he rocked us all, like nobody else can.
Johnny Winter was 29 years old in the video.
Thank you Midnight Special for well preserving, releasing this iconic footage of the late great Johnny Winter on your channel. Cheers. 💯
Nine year old me did not know what to think about Johnny Winter. Now I know how awesome he was.
I listen him 1976 constantly one year in Library. I was ten and not knowing one word in english. Songs energies was great. Live in Finland. But that yell "Rock and Roll got me😂😎.
Same 😁
I started with Still Alive and Well in 1973. Remains one of my all time fav albums, along with And...Live. RIP Johnny.
I took Johnny Winter and live-to school for record day when I was in the fifth grade; when the drum intro to 'Good Morning Little School Girl' played by the underrated Bobby Caldwell, led into those twin lead guitars my teacher looked like he had just seen a ghost!
Your story is among the BEST I've read!! 5th grader KICKING ASS with Johnny! JDW AND YOU are both my heros!!! WELL DONE my friend! LOVE IT❤
Never gets old. Ever
Some of those guitar licks were unreal. Lots of times when I hear Johnny play, I want to throw my guitar in the trash. I always bitch at it and say, stupid guitar, why can't you do that 😆
the bass players in these 3 man power groups do so much!!
I remember watching this as a kid when it aired…. Midnight Special every week!! Johnny was one of the greats from that time.
One of the best, R.I.P. Johnny Winter
Johnny always put on a great show. 👏👏👏👏😎👌
Love his firebird😎
When I was in high school in the early 70's. Me and some friends were all into the music of the day. We started doing top ten lists for vocalists and guitarists and bass players and drummers and keyboards. Johnny Winter was always in my top ten for guitar. Awesomeness just oozes out of him.
I love it. 😁👍🍺🇺🇸
Totally awesome! In 1973 I was 17, I listened to 2 albums of Johnny Winter, ans also to huge albums of the Stones, Doors, Hendrix, Dylan, Rory Gallagher etc.
I'm with you brothers. This just doesn't happen anymore 🇬🇧
johnny winter and Live is one the best live records ever
100% my friend.. I wore that cassette out so much, had to go buy another!!
Local friend Richard Hughes from Mantoloking New Jersey on the drums with the double bass drums.
Awesome!! I love Johnnys version of the is song. He also does a great version of Silver Train from Goats Head Soup. What a legend!! ✌️❤️
Cannot forget Stray Cat Blues and Let it Bleed.
Powerful performance
How can one be so cool?
I bought Johnny Winter's very first album, "The Progressive Blues Experiment" in 1969, which of course was the year he played
Woodstock.
Rolling Stone magazine ranks Winter 63rd of the world's top 100 guitarists. IMO, Johnny Winter is one of the greatest guitar players of all-time...much better than RSmag's ranking.
With his unbelievable
guitar work, plus his lead singing whilst playing, A N D his great song-writing, l consider Johnny Winter to be a music
genius.
R. I. P.
Johnny 🎸🇨🇱 Winter
Fantastic live recording, no dubbing all rock!
I swear I saw him in an all-concrete bar in Tampa holding 50 people SRO. 1980’s. My ears are still ringing.
RIP RICHARD HUGHES 1950-1983
I love the drums Richard Hughes played when it was the Johnny, Randy, and Richard trio!
When music was real and great.
Saw him live twice in the 70's. He was one of a kind.
Johnny Freakin' Winter. Nuff said!
Johnny,
pure rock 'n' roll explosion!! Amazing performance!
Just great, his energy and bluesy guitar.
omg. blown away by that perfomance.
That was a big sound coming from only four people. Johnny Winter never failed to give great performances.
five - two drummers, bass, cowbells with tits, and ever-so Johnny!
5
3 people !
@@renberg199 Look again, 5.
@@gocarrtshe brought nothing.
This is spectacular on so many different levels.... but the absolute best thing about this clip is Johnny's outfit.
Man could sing as well as he played.
I hope I live long enough to see ALL the hard rock videos released.
(:
I miss Johnny - rode with him and a few friends for about 3wks - he LOVED BBQ!!!
Who doesn’t 👌🏻🇺🇸
@@nickthinkpainting1978 I dated IP Sweat .. we all had a lot of fun
Another legendary artist I didn't get to see...this performance is golden..that's how it's done kids
I went and saw Johnny Live in 1986 in Melbourne Australia. I was still in High school!.My Younger brother came with me.. I had a choice that week of seeing Santana and Buddy Miles LIVE or JW. I chose JW. I made the right decision. He was very good and played about 6 songs over two hours. He played long guitar solos!
Man, this man is in a league of his own ; And who is that girl ???? Great band great sound ,mind blowing
It looks like his wife Susan Warford.😊
@valeriekrueger91
Thanks Valerie , 😊
Susan Warford
I saw him in 74 and the dude never left the stage during the break. Played for 2 solid hrs. Richard Hughes was his drummer.
sweet. i saw him in 2008. he had sit sit down to play but he nailed every lick.
@@mikepetrie5851 I saw him again about the same time. He sat and played all the good ones on his little white v. Number 1 in my book!
@@larrymartin5860
fantastic.
edgar too.
Saw him first on my 17th birthday at Manchester Free Trade Hall, we were front row and he obviously had the hots for my girl, we threw a big joint of weed up for him, he nodded for the roadie to get it and he stood at the side and blew it while Rick Derringer played an awesome solo, can't tell you how cool that memory is even now :)
Johnny Winter And, was a life changing live act. More great musicianship than flash. Derringer perfect compliment.
I was lucky enough to see Johnny at Winterland in San Francisco during this tour. I remember it being HOT and Loud ! Great times!
Thank you for this historic footage 😊
Johnny just kicking it out
Saw Johnny and Edgar together in 1976, what an awesome show. Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush opened, it was a serious guitarfest night.
wow, that's an awesome line up for sure! lucky you
Wow!!! What city?
@@Rockzilla404 Charleston WV.
@@MikeKeller
Thanks.. Would loved to have seen Frank Marino in his prime. Have a safe holiday
Damn I would have loved to seen that one!
Super talented he gets a pure, clear sound from that axe. He is compelling to watch and an authentic artist.
Simply, simply, simply amazing my all time favorite and ########## 1. R.I.P.
Thank you so much midnight special ❤❤❤❤
Smokin’ performance … that guitar sounds SO GOOOD!!!! So loud! I am in awe!!!
Highly underated musician....Randy Jo Hobbs is Killing it on bass.. Johnny's Woodstock set was phenomenal.
Not sure Randy Jo Hobbs was underrated. Johnny Winter said he was great, Rick Derringer said he was great, and Jimi Hendrix said he was one of the best. Randy played with great musicians who were the center of attention. He didn't try to outshine them but played awesome, loud bass!
@@NH-ox1gr
I wasn't talking about Randy.. But since you brought it up. A very low percentage of people watching this clip know who he was. I'm sure that if you don't consider Randy underated simply because Johnny, Rick and Jimi gave him a stamp of approval you feel the same way about Johnny. I won't go into why I think he's underappreciated but I do. He was incredible.
Such a talent. Rest in Power Texas boogie woogie blues brother ❤❤
Great guitar player 👍👍👍👍
Mindblowingly good
It great see Randy Hobbs doing well in this video. Sadly, for him, I worked with him in a factory after his music career. He had great stories.
What years were you working with him and what type of work is it
Gosh, it was a long time ago, probably mid to late 80's, working on an assembly line
Did randy seem in a good mental state at the time,cause I hear that he was on drugs pretty hard and that's what killed him in the 90s
@@jaidanmckeich6883 Randy got treatment and counseling for his drug addiction and became active in his local church in Union City, IN. He is buried in St. Mary's Cemetery. Johnny Winter remained friends with Randy until his death and stated that he thought Randy had stopped doing drugs. Who knows for sure but the medical examiner report said his death was due to heart failure, he wasn't in good health.
But, he was one heck of a bass player and made awesome music with many top notch musicians!
on the johnny winter and album, randy Jo just walks the dog on jumping jack flash, I saw randy jo, richard hughes with Johnny at the Greensboro coliseum in Jan '74. phenomenal concert. the loudest I ever heard. my ears rang for 3 days. super clean too.
Johnny was a guitar shredder, before they called that kind of playing shredding. I always say go back and listen to his performance at Woodstock, it was epic. ☮️🎸🎸🎸🎸
AWEsome. Don't believe I've ever seen him work with two drummers. Great camerawork.
Uncle John Turner & Rochard Hughes
I was just going to post about the two drummers.
@@pj87892000 I'm trying to find out more about Richard Hughes and there isn't much info anywhere I've seen on him,....he died in 1982 I believe.
first time I've ever seen double drummers plus the background singer with the wood block.
It was reported as a suicide, unfortunately.
It's very cool seeing Susan Warford in the band. Great idea by Johnny to have her on stage with him. Thank you for posting this fantastic Midnight Special footage.
l looked her up and did not realize they had been married for several years. I like how she looks at him most of the time. You can tell she cared for him.
@@velvetbees Susan Warford-Winter was married to Johnny Winter until he passed away in 2014. They were married in 1991. She died in 2019.
@@mrdog66 WowShe was beautiful⚘️
@@velvetbeesCared for his money or she would have had nothing for him at all! Women follow the money! They're callled something like "Golddiggers?"

FUCKING AWESOME!! back in the good Ole days 😀👊👍✌️🇺🇸🦅🦼
My number ONE, guitarist John Dawson Winter the 3rd🎉
work, work, work, work, work...
work, work, work, work, work...
Incredible style....
Johnny Winter in sequin! What a hoot!
Absolutely fucking awesome 🎸
I’ve seen so many covers on RUclips but this one stands alone. So good, so loud, so fast!!!!! ‘Face melting’ - a good word to describe
I saw Johnny every chance I got! He was so great! I thought, as I did with Stevie Ray, they were better when they had a keyboard with them. The power trio just didn't work with them like it did with Cream. Clapton's better when he has people around him. Johnny was EASILY the BEST blues slide player of all time! He had NO peer when it came to that. He was the best! R.I.P John Dawson Winter! You will be missed!
If I had seen this back in the 70s, my young mind would have been blown.
That's what happened to mine! Saw him live about 6-7 times, starting in late 1970. First time he opened, followed by Small Faces, and the headliner, Three Dog Night. Haven't been the same since!
Kick ass rock n roll
A true guitar legend one of my favorite musicians
Wow, thanks for this historic moment!
You bet!
Love ya Johnny, always will! A true hero.😇
Thank you for posting this! Johnny is fire! 🎸🔥🎸🔥🎸🔥🎸🔥🎸🔥
Keep on rocking!
Classic! Enough said!
This guy's guitar was always "on fire!" RIP
I think it was quite possibly the best Johnny Winter album ever?!
Absolutely awesome performance. Love it! Thank you so much for posting this. Cracker!❤
Just recently started to check out a few songs, didn't realize how good of a guitarist he was
This is my favorite version of this song 🎸
great cover, one of the Stones best songs, cheers from Vancouver!!
Great to see all this stuff that wasn't released before on DVD.
In time the truth will be realized!
Fenomenal
Imagine a weird dimension where Johnny Winter is not in Th R&R hall of fame But Madonna & Jay Z are wouldn't that be fucking strange?
Probably because Johnny is a bluesman and the Rock and roll Hall of Fame don't recognize black people much or the art of Blues music. Probably because they don't know anything about Blues. 😎
Rock and roll hoochie co
Still Alive And Well 🎼
now I know why certain people said Rick couldn't hang with Johnny!
