i saw him rip it up at a small club in the mid 80's. he put down so many bad-ass licks and riffs with spot-on precision, phrasing, lightning-fast speed and perfect vocal prowess. the joint was jumpin' so hard, you'd think the roof was gonna give way any minute now. everyone was rokkin' and going nuts, and the more they did, the harder johnny wailed. he was diggin' the crowd and we were loving him right back. it was mutual frenzied adulation, like something right out of a kerouac novel. go, man!!

hes been so sick latelt may God protect him... this is not Johnny its a very sick version him..

@DamnImhigh76 And strokes to some pretty heavy damage to the mind, he is still a living legend
-
He is obviously just too high on something, some of the licks he does proves that he still has it, he is just too high to realize how off he is playing. And he is still putting on good shows.

I was feel in heaven saw Johnny Winter was with his guitar. But, if you can not feel 'something' please type in "1970" at the end of his name, then click "search".

He gave me many years of enjoyment in his music. I guess he has his good and bad days and this wasn't a good one. So cut the guy some slack. He wasn't the only performer there. So it wasn't like anyone didn't get their money's worth. I saw this guy when he was at the peak of his playing and he was awesome !!! Better than all of the "new" Alternative guitarists alive today.

I was at this show and it was bad, the answers to his bad playing can be found in his biography raising cane. the guys backing him up were looking at each other like WTF, in a sad way. KNOWING the musical giant that Johnny IS. I'm not a hater I know full well what the blues is and was, this IS tragic...

Some of us are happy, nay, ecstatic he is still alive and playing. He gave so much to guitar music we will always be in debt and in awe. Haters should go back to listening to John Mayer - the extent of your blues knowledge. IDIOTS!

He's having better days than bad doesnt
Matter I'd still pay to see him even if he lost use of his arms
I listen to him every day, no one knows the circumstances of that day , it takes a lot of courage to get up there with all those other guys , he had a bad gig but he did just fine the 3 times i saw him , the man is hands down the best slide player that ever lived not to mention that fact that he can sing his balls off while doing so, thank you very much and thank you Johnny Winter !!
