Johnny and Edgar Winter deserves more recognition for their contributions to music

[@ScottHarrison-dz6tz]

Those guys were.. from Port Arthur texas..across from Louisiana 😅

Under every video is a complaint about the musician being underrated or under appreciated. Like clockwork.

Who's contribution? Do you mean, "their"? This was a regular in the set list of Johnny's shows.

​@@ScottHarrison-dz6tz They were from Beaumont.

[@eduardoprieto5267]

Sax shredding, truly the icing on the cake. God bless one and all.

[@AVSSharky]

Johnny had one of the most recognizable voices in rock and Edgar had one of the most recognizable sax sound which made these brothers unique. Seen them both back in the days of Winterland and took my young son to see Edgar in a rare show in Modesto blew his mind. Long for the days of plane old good Rock!

[@tedster1956]

Johnny, Edgar and Rick Derringer! The ultimate rockers. I saw them all many times! Once when I worked at DFW AIRPORT, Edgar showed up for a flight to his hometown, Beaumont Tx. Nobody recognized him but me, so I told him that I was a lifelong fan!

[@bubbamanx]

That is Rick

[@ronforeman2556]

Johnny's touring band at this time included second guitarist Floyd Radford, who had earlier played with Johnny's brother in Edgar Winter's White Trash. Edgar then recruited guitarist Ronnie Montrose to join his stripped down Edgar Winter Group: Their debut album featured "Frankenstein," which became an unlikely instrumental smash. By the time this performance was taped, however, Ronnie had left to form his own band, Montrose, and Rick Derringer had stepped in to replace him.

[@adrianpoesiat]

So am i❤ both brothers

[@JohnRaaf]

No 12:32 t Rick. Floyd Radford who later formed Tin House. Yes Rick is with Edgar, Radford is with Johnny.

[@JohnRaaf]

​​@@ronforeman2556correct. That's Floyd, in this video with Johnny. I saw Floyd at the 1970 Winter's End Festival with his band Marshmallow Steamshovel. In the middle of their set, Floyd stepped up to the microphone and said "We are changing our name to Tin House. Marshmallow Steamshovel is a stupid name. " I will never forget that.

[@fineart10]

Oh you said it! The rock bands of the 1970s were the greatest and there were so many more of them than you can shake a stick at! It's a wonder rock music wasn't a gross national product!

Not to mention Rick Derringer...

[@FERNANDOGONZALEZ-pb6re]

Got to see both Winter brothers and Greg Allman in '84. What icons. I miss hearing both of their singing voices. I have only memories of what a thrill it was to grow up in the 70's, experience the 80's,explore the 90's and expect the twilight of my years in the 2000's. It's a pity that kids today just don't know HOW great it used to be growing old.

Montrose left the band the next year. EDIT: I'm referring to the second track in the video, Frankenstein

The best 15 minutes of my life in 2024, were spent right here. This is so timeless, The Historic sounds of my youth. Legends all. Rick Derringer, lighting the Les Paul on Fire. Johnny besting the Stones with his version of JJF, Edgar the master of the synth and more. PURE GENIUS music from the best era 65-77 We lived the music as a way of life.

That's the way Edgar recorded it. There was no studio version, and quite frankly, it would not have been so great. Postwork would have butchered it to death. No way to studio recording Frankenstein! Live was the only way to do it!

[@chrisclark6192]

Jumping Jack flash by the Stones was the first single I bought back in 1968 and thought nobody could do it better. How wrong I was, and now think that JWs version is by far the best. I first saw play this on UK TV in 1974, and to this day I think that the Stones should have played it like this. JW is often overlooked in people's lists of top guitarist's but to me he will always be one of the best.

[@l.clevelandmajor9931]

Both brothers were extremely talented in their time. Johnny and Edgar each had their own bands, and the talent in the members of those bands was undeniable, complimenting their own talent really well. It was rare to see the brother get together for a joint concert, but when they did, it was epic!

This is just a great film documentary of the music which was commonplace in the 60/70's. Johnny Winter And is of course great, so bluesy and rock'n. But what about the creativity/musicianship of Edgar Winter and his band, including Rick Derringer, who was in on so many great recordings of the era as a session player as well. What I can't get over is the video documents the studio expertise of the EWG showing them expertly producing this song. The camera work is absolutely great, especially considering this was done like 45 years ago, well before the digital age. Thanks for posting this!

Great to see Rick Derringer on the Les Paul as well.

[@jamesturner8067]

Outstanding. The brothers were both a great live show!

[@starshiptrooper7670]

In the 70s Johnny came thru Nashville a few times. This looks like the same crew from the Captured Live album. I remember reading a review from Creem Mag. that said this is a fine album to drink a case of beer to. Yes it is! Edgar also passed thru Nashville. Two very talented brothers. RIP Johnnie 🎸🎸

It sounds like a bunch of men's orgasms

I could watch Chuck Ruff play drums all night!! RIP.

[@markravitz1684]

I agree. He had the look and moved behind the kit like the textbook version of a rock drummer. The Edgar Winter Group was the first concert I saw as a 13 year old kid. I was mesmerized by Chuck. Myself being a drummer, I always wanted to look like him when I played

Where the fuck does the time go? Such greatness never to be seen again.

[@edouardleenaert4291]

THE MOST UNDERRATED GUITAR PLAYER EVER ! HE IS "SO"GOOD !

[@green323turbo]

His was never under rated Anyone who knows guitar.. knows how good Johnny Winter was. ( only except maybe on that stupid rolling stone top 100 list )

[@earlspearl2933]

right , I think he may be the highest rated .as far as I know . maybe Chet and Les would be a the only ones in his league .

[@petrinasimmons6686]

Edouard LEENAERT I agree ❤

[@jrleftwich7643]

One of the BEST

[@brettcaporale8031]

Edouard LEENAERT seen Rick Derringer in 79 I believe at Santa Cruz Civic holy moly that guy could play guitar for sure

[@henghergalladrix568]

The Rolling what!?!!? He IS a rocking stone! ... and Rick Derringer so good

[@billsmith2212]

I saw them both in the early 1970's . This college playhouse was 1105 capacity . Johnny had 5 Twin Reverbs stacked . He turned everything on 10 ! The slide guitar was deadly ! Equally damaging was Edgar's sax ! Great show ! I have seen them many times . Including Johnny Winter And at The Fillmore East with Rick Derringer .

[@burningrabbitacres8330]

My friends and I saw the Winter brothers at the New Haven Coliseum same time as this. What a gas. Edgar had his hands painted fluorescent and blacklighted. Too funny. We followed them outside after the show and watched them speed away in matching Porsches....

[@bryanmclellan8546]

Floyd Radford. The best unknown guitarist I ever saw. Derringer is unreal also. I saw his band play in Tampa circa 1977/78. Roy Buchanan was the opener.

[@CortexZero]

Johnny was such a killer guitar player man. And a hell of a vocalist. Oh and he could probably play any instrument you threw at him too. Holy shit man.
