[Syzygy60]

anyone that eversaw Johnny knows he's emotional

[gritzman]

Wish they had shown Paul's excellent solo! But this is awesome! My 2 heroes together.

[diamondnight]

I talked to Dickey Betts after a show in Rochester NY ten years ago.. I asked if he talked to Johnny Winter much. He said, "No.." then thought deep about it for a minute, smiled wide and said, " Johnny )did tell me the band in Rock and Roll Hootchie Koo, was my band The Jokers.. they used to come out to see us play.." (There was a group called The Jokers they were layin' it down, boys never gonna lose that funky sound..) These icons play soul, good to see them together, thanks Tonfoi .

Saw Johnny live in the 70s. What can I say except a freakin inhuman guitar player then. I was never the same after. I saw Dickie with Duane also. Fine guitar player, great tone and melodic riffs

[hotblueschick]

Seen him live in Toronto a few times. Blew my mind man!!!

[Dubaiman123]

there is a 3rd guy playing a solo..cameraman !!! Song is all over now...

[tonfoi]

@Dubaiman123 The third guitar player is Paul Nelson

[mesphinx]

@Dubaiman123 yes Paul Nelson is the actual line up since several years as the starter till Johnny comes on stage, he is also awful and of course Dickey Betts is a legend with Allamn Brothers and his Great Southern

[PhillyPhunk]

[AlainPage1]

comme je suis heureux que ces hommes jouent ensemble

[JimBozeman1956]

Funny, they didn't pan to the other guitarist.

[Dogheadj]

@JimBozeman1956 There's another video of this on YouTube where they do pan to the guy on the leaft. Sure wish I knew who he is.

[winter1wolf7blues5]

@Dogheadj - He's Paul Nelson and is flat out fine!

[Dogheadj]

@winter1wolf7blues5 Thanks for the info!

[winter1wolf7blues5]

@Dogheadj Paul Nelson

[nordicwoodsman]

[birdmandc19]

Two of my favorites ,like angels meeting upstairs ,joined by faith ,Dickie is my bro deep down. Bird man

[nerblebun]

It was the guy on the left playing most the hot licks !

[Dogheadj]

@nerblebun I agree. Anyone know who it is? I think Jeff Gantz calls out"Joe!" right before he takes the lead.

[phillij1848]

Thyanks for the post. This is a real treat!

[metafia]

J0hnny come tutti i nonni adesso e più saggio dobrei mostrare più rispetto, non mi piaciono i tuoi comenti, lui è uno dei più sconoscutti chittaristi senza di la mass media publicità

[abbysanta]

Yes, yes, yes now there is a benchmark for all you guitar slingers to strive for. If there is a god these two gods will record a CD together and SOON!

[jimboturner]

met Johnny last night!

[DirkjeA]

Wow, do I envie you, he seems such a gentle and nice guy, wish he would come to Holland..... I think Johnny Winter is one of the greatest guitarplayers ever. Grew up with his music.

[jimboturner]

he didnt say a word to me,LOL. he looked frail but when he got on stage he ripped, i was so surprised to see how well he still sang and played. i think hes in europe at the moment

[DirkjeA]

Yes, he plays in Scandinavia and Finland in the first part of june, than back to the US.

Well as I am in Holland, Scandinavia is too far away, pitty....

[asdesas]

Oh come on--Johnny Winter and Dickey Betts together? Heaven on earth!

[logjammers]

No...a place better than heaven!

[jimiricsim]

[vanjkos]
