Wow. Sad day if it’s true.

My favorite Johnny Winter song from the 1973 album “Still Alive and Well”

“Rock Me Baby”:

Oh, man. Excellent choice.

Sad to see this legend pass.

I’ve been listening to his version of “Rock and Roll, Hoochie Koo” from the Johnny Winter And album for, oh, well over 40 some odd years now. It still hasn’t gotten old. Rick Derringer’s version is so pale by comparison.

I wanted to tackle Winter’s version in my band workshop a few years back, but the instructor refused, saying it was “too testosterone laden.”

(sigh)

Maybe if I can find finally some other like minded amateur rockers, it can be removed from my growing bucket list.

RIP, Mr. Winter. Thanks for the inspiration, and for decades of musical excellence...
