Johnny Winter was the first concert I went to see sometime in 1973 or 74 in Montreal. I am truly blessed to have seen him perform live quite a few times since. An icon that is sorely missed. His music will live forever. RIP Johnny.
This clip is great in that it shows them all as young men. In performance footage his hair always reflected the stage lighting. Here it showed how white it was and he was a beautiful young man. It is a little sad now to watch all these young men with their whole lives ahead of them. None of the bad stuff had happened yet. Rest peacefully Johnny. I picture him up there young again playing with all of his heroes. You will always be the best blues player.
Raw, uncut, up close 'n' personal just the way I loved seein JW my favorite musician since I was a little girl!! Broke my heart we lost you JW. You made footprints in the snow man like nobody else could, your kind'a footprints they go down in musical history books as one of the greatest guitar slingers of our modern day times! Love ya with all of my heart 'n' spirit my brother 'n' miss ya more........xoxMama Joxox Rock 'N' Roll
Thank you my friend, I know Johnny Winter since its inception, a very great blues musicians, fantastic collaboration with BB King, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Buddy Guy, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix was much more ...
saw him several times in Seattle... was a huge influence. how likely is it that a guy named winter is an albino? ...much less a texas bluesman. amazing. RIP... thx Johnny
I first saw Johnny in 1974 at the Spectrum in Philadelphia. I was 14 and was just told about him from my summer camp counselor. I’ve seen him around 10 times and perhaps my favorite was after that first show with Johnny Winter And, was in 1984 at the Wax Museum in Washington, DC. He had just released “Guitar Slinger” One of my favorite guitarists and singers who greatly influenced me as a professional blues guitarist and band leader since 1993.
A fantastic never seen before upload on multitalent Johnny"Lighning" Winter.Thank you very very much.He was born and died with the blues,that was his entire life.He had a 4000 piece blues LP collection and knew all these by heart. On board of the tourbus he listened these in MP3 even in his last days.
thx for the video. JW was my first encounter with blues! I admired his skills so much over the years and I´m still very depressed, that he died! I´m glad, that I could seen him live in munich in 1988!
Yes it is....this video is almost too much...Johnny playing his Dobro, playing Harp, walking in the snow....... Tommy& Uncle John and Johnny.......they look so young!
Seeing Johnny Winter up close just feet away performing at Uncle Sam's Nightclub ( Buffalo ) 1979 was a thrill of a lifetime - A legend along with Jimi two guitarists I idolized since I was a teen in the 70s 🎸🎸
Not amongst musicians &or anybody who knows what they're talking about, but in general Johnny's got to be THE most underrated of the tiny handful of elite guitarists capable of that level of playing of that era.
Johnny pretty much ended his rock star career era when he chose to produce Muddy Waters releases and tour with Muddy in the later 70s. Artistically successful but his return to more straight blues less rock meant a lower profile.
@@chrisghiardi117 You're absolutely correct, it was Johnny's choice to take that direction of Traditional Chicago/Mississippi Delta Blues, that wasn't going to get any airplay. Undoubtedly you're already aware his personal least favorite of all his major releases was And Live. Which is where I 1st discovered him, and I still think is as Smokin' as it gets, also his biggest seller, but he didn't care for it himself.
Un autentico GENIO. Creó un estilo paralelo a la voz negra, siendo él un blanco extremo, que no es ni mejor ni superor ni igual. Es su única y original forma de cantar.....digno de un GENIO ...ni hablar de su guitarra y.....la armónicaaa....Leyenda por derecho divino
Wooow!!Thank you so much for posting!I am a french guitar player,62,and discovered Johnny in 69.Once I saw this footage on french TV (I think the show was"Bouton rouge")and it absolutely killed me,I am a fan since then.I never could find the footage,and,45 years later,here it is,so thaaaaank you man!!
What an AMAZING 9 minute masterpiece!There are 3 french doc s of extreme note-this,palace th nyc 73 complete,and captured live tour.used to have a two tape set of Paris 74 from the audience-Thank You for posting this for the world-Merci-Beaucou!Chris Young-PEACE TO JOHN DAWSON WINTER III !
In 1966 I've got my first LP for my birthday. I was 12 years old, and I couldn't decide between Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich and Johnny Winter.. My mother bought the one of Johnny Winter, I still have that one. Fifteen years later I saw him the first time live (when Dr. John joined his band), and I was simply blown away. He's the real thing!
He talks about it in some of his interviews esp. later in life ...very open about it and sincere...about how he turned his life around... but he had said he wished he was dead when he was addicted... and never wanted to live like that again...He was then sober for a long tme but it took along time to get there.....By No means Badmouthing the man Great performer saw him many times over the years one of my favorites and I take he's one of your too!
Hey, blues rock guitar#1. So glad I found your channel. Johnny Winter was a phenomenon. I’m always grateful to find something I haven’t seen before. Mind blowing talent.
There exists a couple of photos of Johnny jamming with Hendrix at the Scene Club in NYC...the two of them also jammed in studio a couple of Blues tunes, one of them being The Things I used to Do.
Cool documentary...shame theres not more of it. This covers the period just before or while Johnny was signing with CBS methinks, since he, Tommy Shannon and John Turner are playing songs from The Progressive Blues Experiment album ("Tribute to Muddy" and "Mean Town Blues").
Yeah, this is after CBS records gave him a ton of money, and he and Tommy Shannon (bassist) went out and bought new guitars. I always though he sounded best when playing Fenders. First time I saw him in 1968 he used a Strat for standard tuning and a Fender twelve string electric with six strings removed for slide. This was at the legendary Vulcan Gas Co.in Austin. They had no money even though they played there about three times a week. I got to know them a little and was there at the Vulcan when they recorded The Progressive Blues Experiment. It was all done live--no overdubbing. You only heard guitar and drums--Tommy's bass was routed directly into the soundboard. They couldn't get then sound in that place with tommy playing through his amp, so they did it through the sound board. Great memories! Great times! We were all young then and the world was our oyster. RIP Johnny!
Ok, that is about the coolest footage I've ever seen! Wow what a wonderful time. That really captured the essence of Johnny in the early days. Thanks for posting it! The whole vibe was awesome......the snowmobiles!
johnny had noting to do walking in snow. He' a blues man from texas; aint got snow in texas like he be walkn thru Welcome to CAnaDA! love ya still johnny!
Must be very early ,,,, when Tommy Shannon and 'Uncle " John Turner were still his band . Tommy later played bass with Stevie ray in Double Trouble.... great footage here, what a pure exponent of the blues. God Rest Him
Man , you gotta put some subtitles on this, change the title to something more descriptive, and add a good description section underneath with lots of johnny and guitar related keywords. This deserves 100x more views!
Yes it is. First interview, first footage of Johnny playing his national resonator guitars, first time you see Johnny play harp, walking outside in the snow... Just awesome footage from just before they recorded "Johnny Winter" This is Blues History
@@susyallen1590 Johnny had said that he and Edgar didn't want children because of the chance their offspring may have albinism and the complications that comes with it.
He beat the heroin, but got hooked on pain killers, pushed on the road by Teddy Slatus, his one time manager...thankfully, he had some years free of those chains.
I’m reminded how good Johnny Winter was. Two songs on Second winter in particular, The good love and I love everybody, kill me: ua-cam.com/video/dUbgpPx3T1E/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/whfs7FJMQfA/v-deo.html
I didn’t know Johnny played harmonica . Learn something new all the time.

Like a sleek white mink, he roams through the snow. Still listening after all these years.
The best by far...e.moon.godblesshim.amend...😊

I agree I think he was a beautiful young man too
Outstanding! Was lucky enough to see Johnny twice. Incredible

Tommy Shannon, what a legend, recorded with Johnny Winter and some decades later with the great SRV, respect
Yes but people dont get it ...

I would've died to see JW driving the snowmobile. Funny stuff.

He even taught Hendrix how to play a little slide guitar!...They had a lot of respect for each other.

He know how to play harmonica aswell? lol damn, Great voice, great guitar, great slide guitar and now I found out he played harmonica.
He also played bass, Mandolin and Ukulele , drums and a little piano. And clarinet was his first instrument.
Johnny era el Blues y el Rock and Roll hecho persona.
Were the winter scenes filmed in Canada?
must be about 69-70 johnny winter , tommmy shanon days
Man , you gotta put some subtitles on this, change the title to something more descriptive, and add a good description section underneath with lots of johnny and guitar related keywords. This deserves 100x more views!
Nice!
Tommy Shannon sure had a great career playing with greats.
Didn't know he could play harmonica so well too
I often wondered if the beautiful blonde is Carol Roma one of his early 💘s
BRG#1 ROCKIN Fr. CANADA TKS.
When and where was this filmed? Great piece!!!! Thank you.
This is Johnny at home in Staatsburg, New York, with Tommy Shannon and John Turner in 1969.
bluesrockguitar#1 Thanks a bunch. What a great piece!!!!
Yes it is. First interview, first footage of Johnny playing his national resonator guitars, first time you see Johnny play harp, walking outside in the snow...
Just awesome footage from just before they recorded "Johnny Winter"
This is Blues History
bluesrockguitar#1 I agree. Pure Blues history, and I've been sharing it around. Loved him blown' harp! I'd heard him, but never seen him do it.
Hard to believe a guy from Texas likes the snow . Peace Johnny !
bad-ass footage, and music. :)
Nice Gold top Johnny
Must be somewhere in Quebec, canada
He had a lived in Staatsburg New York up on the Hudson around this time..for a spell I think it's just a French a documentary..But I could be wrong
Hendrix....I love Johnny....but Hendrix. Lets keep on going 😪
I like to see how white is him like the snow
Love him but I can only take so much lol
Has anyone got the French to English translation for this ?
wow!
Give Me that 5-4-1 Thing...
Tommy Shannon!
A young Tommy Shannon on bass
I would like to know if Johnny had kids...
No, Johnny did not want to have kids.
@@bluesrockguitar1484 woow really?
@@susyallen1590 Johnny had said that he and Edgar didn't want children because of the chance their offspring may have albinism and the complications that comes with it.
Too bad the DRUG thing ended up wrecking him!
@Lucky Frank 🍀 Pretty Much Mr.Wnters own words
He beat the heroin, but got hooked on pain killers, pushed on the road by Teddy Slatus, his one time manager...thankfully, he had some years free of those chains.
interesting
I’m reminded how good Johnny Winter was.
