Johnny Winter - SUZIE Q (Live at Rockpalast)

They do miss something but they don't know what they miss...........

Hey;• the kids are alright! Well some of them, but don't try telling them we only had good stuff going. There was a lot more bad than now. We moved to Europe when I was 10 and I was totaly used to the radio stations around LA. So I kept trying, but every time I touched that radio it gave me nightmares. Nowadays it's even possible to turn that radio on for almost an hour!

[@darrellcook8253]

At 67 years old and I am still listening to rock and roll. I miss the guitar and drum solos. I miss the old days with musicians stretching what their instruments were capable of.

[@enriquepina9829]

Hey Darrell. I'm 68 and still Rock n Rolling!!! Till Death! Awesome Winter Bro,s

[@laserflexr6321]

Funny I felt compelled to comment, and when I scrolled down to do so, the first one on the list kinda rolls in to what I was thinking. Those Winter's were musical geniuses..... Should that word be geniii? I dont know. Super talent. Sometimes in these live shows, which as far as I know is all that is available, they experimented on stage, sometimes it went too afar afield, in my opinion, but what they did that worked was wide ranging and inventive. True musicians those guys.

Johnny Winter habe ich in Erfurt 2006 erleben dürfen, 17 Jahre nach der Grenzöffnung. Ich bin 1958 geboren, ich habe als Kind und Jugendlicher Johnny Winter verehrt. Er war mit der besten Gittarissten in seiner Ausdrucksart.

[@RoyPhillips-dy9vt]

From the first time I heard him live in '69, I never could understand why he never received the recognition he deserved! Saw him about half a dozen times up to the early '90s. Edgar was multitalented, but Johnny drew the the serious fans to his shows! RIP Johnny. The world is a very different place without you!

[@MichaelWatsonGod]

His sound was to raw for AM radio and corporate music/radio. Sure everyone dug it but, the mindset was the 7-14 year old crowd would never get it, therefore it was not commercially accepted. Still today his style of playing today is not accepted by corporate music.

[@buzzman4860]

You may want to go and research his legal problems in the 60s. That should explain why radio and record labels didn't touch him

Saw Edgar Winter at the Cincinnati Gardens in the 70’s. About haflfway through the show Edgar stepped up to the microphone and said we have a little surprise for you all. Stepped back held out his arm and Johnny came on stage shredding his guitar. Fading memory sucks getting old

[@CongressSux1776]

Damn dude, that’s awesome!

[@jamesmicucci7028]

That's not the only time... If you know about Edgar's live double album "Roadwork" (1972), at some point, Edgar steps to the microphone and says "...People keep asking me... WHERE'S YOUR BROTHER??" You can hear the crowd go berserk as Johnny makes his first public appearance in a while (maybe after trying to kick a bad habit), and goes on to sing & play a wonderful version of "Rock & Roll, Hoochie Coo", with its writer & former bandmate Rick Derringer playing 2nd guitar, 2 years after the original studio version on the album "Johnny Winter And", and a year before Rick would do his own version, the hit single released from his first solo album, "The All American Boy" (1973)... Johnny even gets equal billing on the back cover of "Roadwork" to Rick, for the one song! If you love this song, AND love Johnny Winter, this is a must-have, and my favorite version of the 3.

[@DanC-go9lc]

Bought all Johnny's albums when I was buying albums. KZbin has afforded us to see these concert videos we'd probably never would have seen. Love this internet. Finally saw Johnny and Edgar at Pleasure Island Seafood, Blues and Jazz Festival in Ft. Fisher, NC They played through a nor'easter that evening after took sides off of the VIP tent and rigged a wind/rain breaker on the open-sided covered stage nd the show went on. Edgar started with FRANKENSTEIN. Did his set then Johnny scooted out and sat down for his set..then they both did several songs. Troopers in that miserable weather. They were fairly dry...we were soaked. Wish I could post the pics I shot. Front of stage. PSISB&JF was a long running local coastal chamber of commerce event every 2nd weekend in October. Hurricanes since 2016 have put a cancellation damper..move to spring but just not the same. Atlantic Ocean to the east, Cape Fear River to the west. Your sitting on the dry land.

[@jamesmicucci7028]

I taped him (never taped anyone before) at a seminar AND concert in a CT club on August 9, 1978. He was late, drink in his hand, took a big gulp, and said "Mmmmm.... breakfast!", eliciting a big laugh from the audience. He was generally in very good spirits at this 'Blues Guitar Seminar", but things turned serious for one particular question from an audience member. In some of the local music press, it got some special attention when I asked him about Jimi Hendrix, and he spoke at length about Jimi, and became obviously overcome with emotion before the subject finally changed. I think he ended the it by speaking about Jimi's death, with his head lowered, in a soft voice (almost like he was thinking out loud), and said something like "I still can't believe it", more than once. You could hear the pain in his voice for the loss of someone he not only revered, but felt like brothers with.... I still have the tape(s) & the news articles. I'll never forget it. Johnny Winter, from 10 feet away, talking to this 23 year old - me. Loved you, Johnny. You were one of the guys keeping the blues alive in the '70s (& beyond), even when you rocked out.

[@paulgrosvenor9307]

I think I brought my first Johnny Winter Album in 1965 and my favourite track was Good Morning Little Schoolgirl. I was only 16 at the time. I still love him.

[@krystalgoodman5249]

I only remember listening to Johnny serenade us kids around the Christmas tree in Charlotte as a little girl, ive always knew how incredibly lucky I was. Reading these comments makes me cry. So humbled to call him family. I’m crying as I watch him. JUST LISTEN TO HIM! 🍀😱

[@guavajellyjam]

I wish everyone knew what a damn nice and decent human being Johnny was , a gentle kind man . I was blessed to call him a friend and loved the heck outta dat man

[@Willd-ki8ix]

Highly underrated as a guitarist

[@AstroGremlinAmerican]

By whom?

[@KittyGrizGriz]

No WAY! That “overrated” term… 😛 again? 🤪 Johnny was Huge!!!

[@michaelehrhart9670]

Blues. Genius. RIP, Mr. Johnny...left us way too soon.

[@The-Contractor]

Great Bluesman. I first saw him at Pirates World in Ft. Laud. FL back in the early mid 70s. Awesome live and never relied on studio tricks to make it happen. RIP Johnny and thanks for all the music.

[@Bella-ut8pf]

Oh my, I can't get enough of it. Since I lost my husband 44 years or so and my grandchildren and my son and daughter and my brothers and sisters. This song warmed my heart so much, I know all the words. My deceased husband and I would rock all night long and dance and hug and kiss, lots of beautiful wonderful memories thank you Johnny. Thank you Johnny you're awesome and I will listen to this song until I die Bella or Cinderella. God bless our world. 😇❤️🤪

[@Bella-ut8pf]

😌😌😌😌😀p BK. I'll be missing you I got to go. 😇💩❤️🤪

[@stephenoneill245]

I remember seeing this on TV. The crowd wasn't into the blues he was doing and wanted to party. Johnny uttered the immortal words I remember to this day, "You want some rock'n'roll? You want some f*cking rock'n'roll?" (Crowd goes apeshit). "You gotta lotta noise, but you aint got no taste". Priceless!

[@ontariobuds]

I thought that he told them to get up off their asses as they won't do it all.

[@THE-HammerMan]

What I always loved and admired about Johnny was his playing with sincere feeling. I mean REAL feeling; every time, every song, every note. He simply loved what he did and was a gift to everyone who ever saw him play. THANK YOU JOHNNY for giving such love to us all!

[@LeftCoast_TomP]

Agreed.... Many can play fast blues licks but few with the timing and feel of JW. Blues with a feeling.

[@THE-HammerMan]

@@LeftCoast_TomP The truth in what I said could be seen decades after his epically long shows with his band; his brother's band; Rory Gallagher's band and Rick Derringer's band. Johnny was still loving what he did so much, he was stretching the strings on every note & song...he never settled on going through the motions to give a good show and get out. He played with that raw intensity of youth always--and gave his all.

[@peteperry5712]

Rockplast has some of the most excellent recordings, video and sound balance EVER. Congrats Germany! Wunderbar!

[@chabrake]

Yes..très good sound and more...now what's channels for listen and see ?

[@pummysworld369]

Those concerts were designed to be broadcasted simultaneously both TV and UHF radio. So good sound balance was mandatory. Most famous were the Rockpalast Nacht (Night) that started at 10 p.m. The broadcast was nationwide and each of them were little Woodstock festivals. My parents granted little sis and me unlimited watching no matter how long it lasted. Real big concerts for free!

[@surfboy3216]

I met Johnny a few years before he died. A true gentleman and blues man!

[@sunking2001]

Johnny...I've seen you 6 times and loved every minute. You were the best! YOU knew how to rock...and YOU knew how to play the best blues. Nobody was/is better! We will miss you. You were absolutely incredible! I never heard you make a mistake. Every time I saw you...after the show...I said to myself..."Wow...how can a guitar player be that good?"...you were unbelievable...absolutely unbelievable." You showed the world how blues is supposed to be played. Many future blues guitarists will get their inspiration from you. "You are truly "THE"... "blues God!"

[@marywagner3644]

sunking2001 you were very fortunate

[@scotts1842]

Don't forget Albert Cummins!

[@patrickb6955]

I saw him 5-6-7 times as well, always blew me away. Even when he couldn't stand anymore. A blues Icon and a guitar legend - well deserved.

I'm 33 years old, my dad raised me right, I'm a huge rock and blues fan, and this performance is one of my all time favs. Hands down one of the best guitar riffs in all of music. Johnny badass.

[@wayneverhulp142]

He is one of the greatest rock blues guitaist,,

[@billyboy1714]

Best version of this song I ever heard! Truth be told, I think I like Johnny Winter’s covers over the original artist’s versions most of the time.

[@netotube2008]

The best of the best. Simply the best guitarist ever! God bless you !

[@DonnaSantala-nx7kw]

You got that right!

I Love Susie Q and Johnny Winter.......

A giant among guitar players. Influenced many, amazed most of us and is deserving of his legend.
