Title: Johnny Winter in Paris France yesterday night
Post by angelo misterioso on Mar 16^th, 2010 at 6:53am

Johnny Winter played a great gig yesterday night in Paris.
I've heard so many bad reviews of his last gig in France, a few years ago that I didn't know what to expect.

He's BACK, great concert.

2 great videos of " red House" & " Highway 61" here :

I'm a HUGE Johnny Winter fan. I saw him live, and I saw his brother Edgar Winter (with Rick Derringer) in Sweet Virginia a few years back. EW and RD played on my birthday at Jaxx in Springfield, VA.

Rock & Roll Hoochie Koo! :booze

Well, I was on the fence for June 24th near where I live. Your review caused me to just buy tiks to see him. It's been too long and Johnny is always good for an hour or so (depending on his health) of great rockin' blues! His JJF is my fave Stones cover!

I must have seen him about 5 times over the years. I think he lives around here. He's always fantastic. He looks pretty good in the pic you posted too.

I'm a huge fan too. I saw him a few times in the olden days and then thrice in 2006 and once in 2007 or 2008. He can't sing as powerfully as before, but his playing is almost as good as his peak.

Here's a video from when he was working with Muddy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFJuGGS_AWk

I remember in about 1983 or '84 I saw Edgar play a great show with Leon Russell for free in Dallas.

Thanks for the videos, seems that the guy recording was in front of the guitar amp as the voice cannot be heard at all

To covers made by the Stones and Mick Taylor too

He don't see the guitar, he just feels it but is so inexpressive now, seems that he's is sick or something

Johnny is GREAT even old and sick
