Edgar here is playing the 'triggering device' keyboard for the Arp 2600 synthesizer sitting on the floor in back of him, with all the sliders, patch ports, knobs that he plays/manipulates later in the song. Arp and Moog were the earliest consumer 'pro' synthesizers available in the early '70's. The Edgard Winter Group was the first large outdoor concert I saw, in 1974 when I was 14.
The title of the song comes from it’s evolution from a riff they jammed around to an extended thing they played at shows. In the studio they needed another song to complete the album. They decided to record an extended jam session around the same riff and improvisation they did on stage. At this point they still hadn’t given it a name. Afterward, they took the recording and clipped it (physically cutting the tape into strips) and hanging the pieces over the backs of chairs, over equipment in the studio, etc. When they assembled the pieces into a coherent whole, they landed on the title Frankenstein because it was like a monster assembled from body parts. This was also one of the earliest songs to use an ARP synthesizer. Innovation to be sure. Edgar was also the first musician to put a strap onto a keyboard and hang it around his neck while playing it on stage. The guitarist on this clip is Rick Derringer who also produced the album. He had a #1 hit in the 60s with a band called The McCoys. At thing point he was respected as both a guitarist and a producer. Edgar Winter Group also used another guitarist named Ronnie Montrose on this album who had his own band later in the 70s called Montrose. The lead singer or Montrose was Sammy Hagar who later replaced David Lee Roth as the lead vocalist of Van Halen.
Nice comment thanks.
The Edgar Winter Group was the 2nd band I'd ever seen live (the first was Uriah Heep), in Aug, 1973. My friends and I were all familiar with the radio version of Frankenstein and the extended album version, but we were unprepared for this epic live performance. There was no internet to forewarn us. :) Imagine seeing this in a concert arena setting with full lights and sound. The "warmup" group was Foghat.
Greatness!!!
This was (well not this live version) was played regularly on the radio. And thats Edgar, his brother Johnny was not in this live version.
i remember hearing this on 1300WMAK in Nashville. those were the good old days.
I think a good term for this song’s structure is organized anarchy.
Fun fact: Edgar Winter was the first (nobody doubts this) rocker to strap a keyboard around his neck a go mobile. I’ve seen Edgar at least 8 times since 1977.
Awww. I never got to see them..
Ha ha ha I was wondering how you would take this... I'm glad you liked it and understood what was happening. Only Edgar was here.... maybe "Tobacco Road next? Maybe I'll request Hocus Pocus by Focus next... Sohum I'm trying to show you how much music affected us in the 70's... This was all over the radio... Thanks Sohum let's try Focus
Artistic wavelengths
The technical name for the "slide" effect is "portamento". Also, it's monophonic synth (only plays one note at a time, no chords). If you hold one low key down, and then keep it down while hitting a higher note (even over several octaves, the note will "slide" up to the last key pressed. The speed of the slide can be controlled. 🤘😎
If you want to get girls get a puppy... Works every time.
Also when have a chance , check out the studio version,, it flows nice
Good Idea
Excellent! I know of another "must see" performance from the same era: the song Hocus Pocus by Focus on the Midnight Special tv show. You've not heard (or seen) anything quite like it I can almost promise. If you do check it out, make sure you get the full six minute version because there is a chopped one that leaves out some great stuff.
Yes I just might request that to blow his mind.. Going to try not to do the Midnight Special version because it's sped up to fit the time. We'll see.
@@stevenseul361 super. The old grey whistle test is also great. But it kinda mixes a couple of songs. But the vocals! Some serious Dimash sh!t going on there.
Johnny Winter was not in this video. He was mostly a blues guitarist. This video has Rick Derringer in the Guitar. The synthesizer, I think, was more of an experimental device at this time.
Hey friend, Johnny Winter is not in this video. It is Edgar the multi-instrumentalist. He's also one heck of a singer. which you can see here ruclips.net/video/af0rV6dli_o/видео.htmlsi=Od--RpE7xzLYU6Qp
The drummer in this video is Chuck Ruff.
He misunderstood my preview to this. Sorry I just brought up Johnny to say they are albino twins. Sohum must of thought Johnny was here too. Maybe next Tobacco Road?
@@stevenseul361 Yessir I pug a link to that video (Tobacco Road) in my post.
I saw Edgar Winter open for Hank Williams, Jr. and The Charlie Daniels Band in 1999. He was great.
