Keep Playin' That Rock n' Roll - Edgar Winter Group | The Midnight Special

[@shelbykindred7487]

What can you say except Edgar Winter is BAD TO THE BONE!!! Who else can play an up tempo version of that song while playing a keyboard (Both hands) wrapped around your neck and singing lead vocals!!!?! Enjoyed seeing Dan Hartman (RIP) also.......... so talented!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jazzpunk]

Wow...don't recall this one. Seen the video of this tune with Ronnie Montrose. This is Jerry Weems on guitar. IIRC, he was subbing until Rick Derringer became available. There's YT vids of The Edgar Winter Group with both Derringer & Weems. Cool ass band...as was The White Trash.

[@Yankindc]

Dan Hartman is killing on bass. The whole band looks like they are having a blast playing this song.

[@TheBallls]

I noticed that too!

[@user-ahoi-op1yv5sc7p]

Yeah...absolutely...🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🔥

[@outlawamps96]

RIP Dan Hartman. What a solid rhythm section!

[@jazzpunk]

Drummer Chuck Ruff, too. RIP.

[@rgs4x]

A totally underrated musician that should be in the RNRHOF.

[@cottagechskitty]

His band was incredible. And this is lacking Rick Derringer. Dan Hartman is also underrated. Gone nearly 30 years somehow

[@GerardFrenchy59]

One of my favorite EW songs! This is 50 years old but is still rocking like yesterday! Dan did a great job on bass👍May he R. I. P🙏❤From 🇫🇷

[@curtisphilumalee1447]

Hellva performance. Watching him sing and play a keyboard that’s hanging around his neck pains me in the day of analog. Thanks for the upload.

[@jazzpunk]

My 1st-ever concert was The Edgar Winter Group with Rick Derringer (The James Gang with Tommy Bolin opened) EW played the 25lb monster pretty much the whole night.

[@bluesrocker6l6gc8]

This is how it's done, folks - pure perfection!!

[@shelbykindred7487]

EXACTLY!!!!!!!!

[@leestamm3187]

Edgar Winter. A great multi-talented musician and vocalist.

[@skwyd42]

I got to see Edgar perform with Ringo Starr last summer. It was an amazing show and he still rocks!

[@KittyGrizGriz]

Heck Yea!! I LOVE Edgar Winter!! Fabulous vocals 🎙️ keyboards 🎹 and 🎸 (!) 🎉 ❤

[@wsjustice]

I bet this song is as much fun to play as it is to listen to.

[@brianbrino4310]

I love this group sooo talented!👏👏👏👏👏

[@StephanieJeanne]

Fantastic!! Great song for a Friday! Keep playing that rock and roll, Midnight Special!🎉💜

[@minxlabrada]

One of the things I like about Edgar Winter is the story of them growing up in Houston as albinos. And saying that was why they stayed in basements all the time learning music. They probably hit their 10,000 hours of playing when they were 14.

[@kennygo8300]

They were in the back room. There are no basements in Houston... or almost any part of Texas. The water table is too high, and the soils are not stable.

[@rodrigogoncalves5140]

Edgar Winter é um músico espetacular, um gênio. Pude vê-lo em São Paulo, Brasil, em 2011, foi incrível

[@shaunfuesdale4305]

Excellent, tried Frankenstein a few times but wasn't feeling it but I get it now, what a voice and what a talent ❤

[@kevin6667]

Rock n Roll!!🎉

[@vitoaugello1677]

LIVE!! No dubbing, no lip syncing and all talent. Where has the real music gone ?? Thanks never saw this video

[@Relayer6a]

The story about his brother John in NY is true. Johnny Winter was in NY gigging and making money while Edger was struggling. He spoke to him and Johnny said, Come to NY and play blues. They love it and it's easy. So he did, and the rest as they say is history.

[@backrowbrighton]

Edgar always gave it his all, whether with the Group, White Trash or with his late great brother Johnny.

[@angelaallen340]

Two thumbs up.......

[@marceloaraujo8728]

🔜☮🔚 aumenta que isso aí é rock&roll

[@Teleman73]

Jerry Weems on guitar AWOL from the military

[@pitmezzari2873]

Explains the "20ish years in the future" hairstyle.

[@MichaelP-g5n]

so young

[@dailybackup8372]

I've forgotten the guitarist's name but I do know he went AWOL from the army and that's why he got short hair. Great player and I think he's gone now also..

[@WillieWeed]

Wouldn't doubt it. Was just a kid then, and I've lost about everyone I've ever known.

[@craigking8252]

Jerry Weems...

[@dailybackup8372]

@@craigking8252 Ah yea..thanks. Bonaroo

[@013bassman]

Sadly they are all gone except for Edgar.

[@KittyGrizGriz]

@@013bassman😢that’s so sad

[@grokeffer6226]

👍👍👍

[@wsjustice]

Fuck yeah ❤️ this shit! This has spirit! This that music that knocks the rust off your joints!

[@ernestcruz6316]

A song from his White Trash days. Classic stuff from a show that was "must see TV" for real music fans.

[@vitorugo]

Edgar Winter Targaryen

[@rosskstar]

Did Edgar and Rick Wakemen ever have a Key-tar jam together? That might've gone supercritical ~just too much

[@landonlewsaw1762]

Audio sync is way off but great performance. Is this pre Rick Derringer then?

[@013bassman]

Yes, I believe this was pre-Derringer. It was about the same time Derringer had released his solo album All American Boy.

[@michaelvandiver2475]

No Derringer had left this band for awhile to do his solo record and promote it. This guy replaced him...can't recall his name though. Tommy...? Derringer came back later and you can see videos of EWG with both guitarists in the band...look for RnR Hoochie Koo.
