Totally agree. An amazing drummer. The music industry is a cruel and ridiculous system where gimmicks are more important than talent. There's millions of highly talented musicians out there who don't get the chance to make a living from their gift. Sad situation.

At least you can see what I grew up with. Edgar and his brother Johnny were in high school with me. I played bass but wasn’t on their level. They were albino with no pigment and blind. We would jam on the weekends and enjoy music. Some times with Janis Joplin who lived about 20 miles away. This was #1 on the rock chart in the USA for a week.

Tobacco Road is an old blues song that gets a facelift. 😁There is a video of them doing the song in what seems to be a very small venue... almost like a small bar.

The Old Grey Whistle Test was a British TV music show that was on late at night and only had proper musicians on playing live. As I started playing drums at age 8 and loved prog rock while all the other kids were listening to all the pop stuff my mum would let me stay up late to watch it. I'm completely self taught and play 7 different instruments so it always gets me when people are surprised that people can play more than one instrument. The thing he was playing and the "monitor" are both synths. The one thing I loved about the old analogue synths was that you could get just about any sound you wanted out of them. I wish I still had my old Roland SH09. ✌️❤️🇬🇧

This live version of this song is a total experience. It blew me away the first time I saw it. Edgar Winter is very talented & plays many instruments including keyboards, saxophone & timbales. The title "Frankenstein" refers he fact that the original recording of the song was much longer than the final version & it required numerous edits to shorten it. So they spliced together many different parts.

As I recall they were using a Moog Synthesizer, a new sound technology that came out in the early 70's and Edgar Winters featured it in this song. It was revolutionary at the time, but the 60's and the 70's, the proliferation of talented musical artists in that era is probably unmatched in history. Those days were the best when it came to music and is still timeless today it was so great.

Hey Neighbor, enjoyed your take on this. Seems the late 60s and 70s had its share of budding auteurs; cameramen that could not be satisfied with simply recording the act, they had to express their creativity, too. Lot's of episodic TV from back then was filled with shots of characters seen from behind objects in the room, fish-eye lens effects, turning the camera upside down etc.

Oh boy, this brings back memories. I bought this album in my freshman year of high school in 1972. I'd heard the radio cut, much shorter, all the time. There are a couple other great tracks off this record, They Only Come Out At Night, Free Ride and Hanging Around. The littlemvuy in white playing guitar next to Edgar is Rick Derringer who, I believe produced the album. He also had a couple hits of his own with Hang On Sloopy while with The McCoys in the sixties and as a solo artist with Rock and Roll Hoochie Koo in the seventies. I also saw him open for Heart on August 16th 1977, the day Elvis died. The Professor of Rock has a great interview with him about this song on his KZbin channel.

So true, You HAVE to watch Frankenstein to get the full effect of the musicianship with the showmanship. Rick Derringer's song Rock and Roll Hootchie Koo is one of those songs that makes you get up and dance. Huge talent on that stage Edgar, Rick, Dan, Chuck!

The guitarist in this video is famous in his own right. It’s Rick Derringer who played with both Winter brothers at various times, wrote some of their songs and had solo success With Rock n Roll Hoochie Koo which Johnny actually recorded first but Rick had more success. He also was in the McCoys in the 60# and had a massive hit it Hang on Sloopy. Derringer is also a Producer and player with Cindy Lauper and many others as well.

@@shaynewest8757 Yes, Ronnie Montrose played on the album but I think Rick Produced it. There is a small photo of Rick on the back cover of the vinyl record, but you are right it was Montrose on the record. Derringer was in brother Johnny’s band Johnny Winter And which I think was actually really Johnny Winter and the McCoys (of Hang on Sloopy fame). Rick worked with both Johnny and Edgar Winter

Excellent Reaction! You picked one of the best Live versions of "Frankenstein ", this one from the Old Grey Whistle Test. Everytime he would perform it Live back then on a show, there seemed to be unique variations and improvisations to each performance. Having Rick Derringer on guitar is always a plus, the great Dan Hartman on Bass(check out "Free Ride" for his vocals), and the drummer is fantastic. "Frankenstein " was a #1 hit in 1973!.

Indeed, the most appealing element of this was that it was fun, just four accomplished musicians who didn't take themselves too seriously, a little of this, a little of that - Frankenstein. It got a lot of airplay although a much abbreviated version. I just noticed your model dinosaur. I highly approve. I thought I was the only one who "decorates" with dino models

One of the coolest things about this song is there are so many versions of it and they all sound different! But they all sound the same! It's the core that stays the same but the surrounding craziness gets switched up. But you know at the heart of it it is still Frankenstein!

That Frankenstein riff is originally by Edgar Winter, and the song did get years of radio play, but a very edited version. Some FM rock stations sometimes played an extended version.
