RIP Johnny......what a great musician AND Human being.....he appreciated his good fortune to make a living doing what he loved......thats success.......
Met him & his band backstage at a music festival. As down to earth and real as anyone I ever met. And these are my kind of people.
I’m a straight male but I have loved Johnny like a brother. Anyone who says otherwise doesn’t know him.
-Matt’s dad Dan
Amen
I'll bet Johnny would've played for free if it meant playing or not playing. He was all about the music.
Lifetime hero, missed so much. What a phenomenal player and the sweetest humble guy. RIP John Dawson III I'll see you at the other side brother.
Johnny Winter is a national treasure....
No, good music is international
I THINK YOU MEAN INTERNATIONAL TREASURE.
Amen
The fact that Johnny Winter is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Frame proves that it is an absolute joke. This interview is deep and informative and should be on a continuous loop there.
“Muddy and the Wolf” really made me smile.
Man, I followed him since '70's high school...my 1️⃣st real guitar hero. ❤️
It’s interesting how he reflects on his early, voracious appetite for ALL blues recordings...BUT didn't initially focus on the early country blues, it was the electric blues that 1st captured his attention. Ironically, I too, was much the same, but as my tastes & listening experiences deepened, my love for the early pioneers of genre, truly grew. He speaks from the heart, very intelligent, (Tommy Shannon insisted that BOTH Johnny & Egar are not only musical virtuosos, but intellectual geniuses).
This was a great interview, thanks. 👍
🇨🇦
This man is the best guitarist ever!
And it was a privilege to see and hear his performances.
I fucking love Johnny Winter
Thank you for posting this. He was the best blues guy ever. This footage is a treasure.
Johnny's so soft spoken...but man is he different on stage..
Johnny was the best 🎵👍
Awesome interview 🎉 thank you for sharing hope you are well God loves you deeply shalom 🤗🐼♥️✝️💐 Philippians 4:8
Such a cool guy....saw him so many times....sat in his van a few times and he signed my shirts....he was the best....end of story.,.....was a real nice guy....
Johnny Winter - Champion & Legend RIP
Man that's one of the most beautiful being that ever walked in this earth , to me Johnny is just the whole pack put together , the blues , the country and the Rock and Roll , and he was albino , to me he's the one .
There is not one single day that I don't think of him with the deepest respect and love for his music and legacy .
I listen to his music everyday, I love all his stuff but from 80's to about 99 he was godlike. I really regreat not going to see him live, almost went back in 2012 :(
he was always in a good mood too. Unless you threw a bottle at the stage, lol
I give you music,you throw stuff!
i loved his earlier stuff
Leandro Machado you are right!!!
Johnny could play that guitar like ringing a bell 💯🙌🏼
this was a great interview. all his early insights and influences. very cool to hear this from him.
A real guitar hero !
My fav Texas bluesman.
A true and I do mean a true rock and roll the greatest we'll miss the whole world will miss him,,,,,,,,,,,!,,,,,, never be another Johnny Winter
I followed Jonny's journey the blues since I was just a kid! Being born in 1956 I lived through the best music EVER! Jonny is and will always be my favorite! I fell in love with the blues in the 60s before it became mainstream and cool!
Thanks for the memories Jonny!

He is compelling to watch and a pleasure to listen to.
Yes Johnny was soft spoken but his guitar playing was at the other end of the spectrum.
Loud, screaming and whailing. He also made his guitars sing. His fingers did all the singing as well. Your fans love you Johnny me included. RIP and God Bless.
Fantastic person, humble and vise and thankful against the people who loves he’s music. R.I.P Johnny.
I’m so grateful to have seen him at the palace theater in Hilo Hawaii aloha Johnny
Johnny was a smart guy, it shows and man did he wanna play!
Forever thankful to my friend Bob Rama who introduced me to the depth of John Dawson Winter. RIP my two friends.
Love that man still alive and well
I am mesmerized by this man's super riffing, and also his deep feeling!....and he knew, hung out with, and recorded a few tunes with the most iconic player of all, Jimi Hendrix!...The sheer talent, and dedication to their art, will stand the test of time....in an odd way, Hendrix and Johnny just had to happen at the same time....it was a cosmic pairing of unique musicians!
What a cool interview. I'd love to hear Johnny tell the stories of all his tattoos. I'm sure there is some musical element to each one. RIP Johnny. I've seen you play live all along the way. You always gave it everything all the time. Nonstop quality music. The very best.
I've seen him in concert 27 times from 1975 to 1994 or so
You lucky guy😊....He toured once in Australia....but l missed the concert
The more you know, the more you love Johnny
Yes, Johnny always seemed to be in a good mood... even on stage.
( Unless you threw a beer bottle at him, lol )
😂 soooo true
Not sure i could love him more. And hes pisces so lyrically and musically unique...was he ever.
I love Johnnys music and Edgars both were beasts in music.
I love his talking voice and singing voice, miss him dearly
That song stranger !!! Wow
In addition to being a fantastic musician, A real gentleman, A class act and an American treasure. I sure miss JDW....
IMHO... Johnny was the greatest guitar player of the past several decades, maybe ever.. I sure do miss seeing him play..really the greatest to see live. Just incredible skills.✌️❤️😁
God bless you Johnny. RIP.
And thanx again man.
Great interview love you Johnny. I had the greatest pleasure to play on the same show as johhny two times around the same time as this interview and I hung out with Johnny after the show.. He was so encouraging and sweet to me a really classy sweet guy! Thanks Johnny!! Paul Fenton 👍
Being from Brazil start to like music at age 14,listen to Jimi and was hooked in guitar right there. Led me to Johnny and is an instant became my hero,start buying his albums and the love kept growing.My girl gave me a dog,got him and when asked how would name him , said his name is Winter.Little did i know how the name fit my dog,as he grow from a pup to his size race,,english pointer in a way was much like Johnny. So much energy,fast could outrun any dog,jump so high,even dive head in the water to pick up heavy rocks in the ocean.Moved to the States and saw my hero three times live during my life.Also because of him got a treat to see Muddy Waters at The Roxy on Sunset Blvd.Loved the man and the musician...RIP my hero,sure miss you
One and only.
I love This ... Johnny Winter is the TRUTH !!! RIP sir we'll see you on the other side of all this.......
Got to see him several times in the 80s at smaller rock/blues clubs and the smaller rock stage at Summerfest in Milwaukee. Despite his ability, he wasn't filling up larger venues like so many lesser talented acts. Could never get over seeing this small, frail looking guy take the stage and put out that magnificent smoking electric blues sound. Glad I got to see him when he was still with us and so saddened to hear of his passing.
Johnny winter Rock on
This is my guy. I even use a Firebird because of this guy. JDWIII LIVES!!!
I love you Johnny , you're the coolest ever !!
Great interview, so thoughtful and gentle. Saw him 11 times, my all time favorite, he was like part of the family although I never met him. Thank-you for posting this interview. R-I-P my brother.
so thoughtful and gentle. Perfect. Such a gorgeous interview.
just recently found out about JW within the past month or so. what a cool dude! i could definitely listen to him talk all day; such a relaxing guy. :)
Johnny Winter during the Alligator records years, great interview.
If given the choice of hearing/watching any single musician play and sing solo on a beach with no power, Johnny would've been number one, just ahead of Paul McCartney. Saw JDW ~ 10 times, just the best and most versatile (blues/rock/country-tinged jazz, etc.) singer/guitar slinger combo of all-time, IMHO. R.I.P. Johnny
Always love JDW
Mr Johnny winter always my influence to play blues
would love to have met you johnny. I guess I'll have to find you in the spirit.
In the summer of 1969(I think), I saw saw BB King and Johnny Winter in a small bar, with psychedelic light show in downtown Cleveland, call the Uphoria. Buddy Miles backed them up on drums. The following year Johnny Winter headlined his own show in Cleveland's Severance Hall, with his famous Rock n' Roll Hoochie Coo and others!
wow brother I bet that was the greatest thing ever I love johnny he's my favorite player would have loved to have had your experience but I was born to late haha what was it like? I bet johnny was on fire and bb too
Lloyd Cox man what a experience ... Wow you just blew my brains out ! What a life opportunity you've had ! Good on ya
Fantastic interview / history w/JW
the great johnny
His studio version of highway 61 is one of the best slide playing ever recorded , go johnny!
Great interview. Johnny is more revealing than I've heard him before. Still haven't heard him say why he covered Stones so often. I figure it's because they popularized the stuff he already knew and loved. And Mick and Keith soon knew that. They were white boys bringing it back, but Johnny was there all the time.
ya, i wish someone would ask him that. Still alive and well had 2 stones songs.
Simple answer, gents. Johnny flat out dug the Stones!
You make a good point...Johnny in his earlier years was not the most revealing person to interview...I think his major tussle with heroin and alcohol during the 70s brought him down for awhile....but then he just got it together even more so after that dark time!..As a forever fan of Hendrix, I wish Johnny could have expounded more than he did, as to his thoughts about Jimi.
Buy Johnny Winter And Live......you will not regret it
Captured Live too.
Sooooo cool! Thanks for posting
T's incredible like a bunch of bones could spread such energy.
Yeah, but those intricately finger picked songs from those old guys was a true art form. Very difficult to catch on to. Appreciate the hours and love of craft they put in. Folks more into the electric sound these days.
The best blues man that ever lived!!!!!!!!!!
That's a pretty bold statement. Lol
He was a treasure indeed. I wonder what was in that cup...
Jack Daniels
Vodka, I have read that we was not a whiskey dude. But he like Vodka.
😂😂
magnus andersson with orange juice
@@MrMadhouse70 vodka brinda a lot of humor
He's so cute plz😩🖤
Hendrix
Johnny Winter 🙌🙌🌹🌹
muy buena entrevista!
Huge fan of Johnny Winter! I decided to try a Gibson Firebird because of him and it turned out that I really loved it, it has some really hot pickups and it's a big guitar, the neck, the fretboard, all much bigger than any other guitar I played, which suites me fine.
His speaking voice is so different from his singing voice
Johnny is 40 years old in this interview.
Too bad Johnny was cut short. 'Should have let him keep talking!
Why is it funny every time he picks up his drink and the ice cubes rattle? but he is an awesome player and huge influence.
Goat bone its funny ecause people are wondering what he was drinking. In the most endearing way. He was the best blues guitar player ever!
Hes from around my area. Lufkin texas
TRES Cool
If you don't have it,get his Woodstock CD.
Man he seems so nice and laid back... I would really like to know and try to understand what his demons were that drove him towards heroin...
did he do heroin
Same demons that drove him to the blues.
@@mr.pickles1410 He did, and he had some talented company!...It seems that, after Hendrix died, his contemporaries became self-destructive....several big-names...Page, Bloomfield, Lennon, Winter, Clapton...all seemed to want to blot out their pain, for whatever reasons...most recovered, but some did not!
Sam hopkins can not be forgotten either.aka lightening hopkins.
Saw him in Albany ny towards the end- he couldn't sit on the stool to play
10:13 🤘🏼
HOWLIN WOLF ONCE TOLD ME THAT JOHNNY WAS THE ONE THAT MADE HIM HOWL.
Could he see anything?
Clarence Garlow.
My husband is jamming winter Blues of Johnny Winters and Heaven the blues live on
What is he drinking ....? So much ice
FYI. Americans put a lot of ice in their water,etc.
Damn shame about those damn cigarettes destroying him!!
Im suprised he even made it to 70 the lifestyle late 80s to mid 90s his worst period he would sleep 10-12 hours and eat only 2-3 meals no wonder he weighed 45 to 50 kilos
I wonder whats he drinking? Whiskey? Whiskey and Coca Cola?
Moondog Lightning I read another interview where the interviewer said that before talking Johnny made him pick up a bottle of stoli and orange juice.
Moondog Lightning yeah - either a screwdriver or wine. I heard that he never drank whiskey although he sings about drinking it in songs.
Actually it would be funny if it had just been ice water. Lol.
Don't smoke kids
If you do smoke you will and if you don't you don't. Unless you change your mind of course. We all know it's a not a good idea but sometimes we all don't care.
@@ixa-3140 Right. I don't give a shit if you die from it.
Thanks for the humility Johnny Winter! However BB King was really overrated as far as guitar plane goes
Wrong...blues is about feeling, not about rapid-fire licks...BB put a lot of emotion into his playing.
@@curbozer5006 No YOU are wrong!
Albert King never played with flamboyant lightning speed and kicked BB (overrated) King's ass. Popularity doesn't make you a better musician! You obviously don't play guitar and if you do you probably suck!
@@curbozer5006 yeah BB could play 3 notes and put more across than others in a whole song
Does a guitar plane fly?
Yes they do dog face. And actually BB King sucks!
