JOHNNY WINTER - RAIN

[@leonardlloyd1089]

Johnny is one of THE MOST UNDERRATED musicians ever. His voice goes hand in hand with his guitar wizardry! BLUESMAN EXTREME!!!

[@davidpeterson7268]

Not underestimated!!

[@drjay73]

To me Johnny is in a first place tie with Stevie Ray and Jimi Hendrix for greatest of all time. Everyone else just takes a back seat

[@rickroybal7022]

Cool. I got Johnny, Stevie, Duane, BB, and Albert

[@JamesJones-i2v]

Rory, but Buckethead is my favorite guitarist. I can and do listen to him play all day long

[@motion24527]

My favorite slayer since 1970. Visited his grave couple of years ago. It was very surreal to be there.

[@mymymymickey]

The most Amazing Guitarist of All Time!

[@paulshepherd9528]

As a long-time, like 50 years long, JW fan, I have to say that I love his studio work more than his live stuff. He is more contained, more in control of his tone, less prone to excessive notes and of course you have engineers to manage the mix. This is some of the tastiest stuff he ever did. Just really good. RIP JW.

[@dinahmenard7289]

Totally AGREE

[@johnminarik3442]

I would just add that the Johnny Winter And live record was a breakout record, and I love it!

[@snodgrassgerald2352]

First heard Johnny in ‘69. I’ll listen to him until the day I die

[@johnperrott6450]

I first heard Johnny Winter in 1969 as well. I was a senior in high school and I was in the process of discovering the blues. Johnny was transformative for me.

[@arthurlyons8498]

Me too. Progessive Blues Experiment. Have the cd

[@mctavish23]

@@arthurlyons8498 Same here

[@luguando]

Thank you Johnny Winter for all the great blues. One of the greatest guitarists ever.

[@rickypalmer8076]

Fishin Fool indeed he is. RIP JOHNNY MY FD.

[@andyg5655]

Saw this tour in 1988, Omar and the Howlers opened in London Ont. Johnny was LOUD, not near as good a concert as the 85 or 1986 held at Stages in Kitchener. Johnny "live" usually played at a pace that was 2 times what was recorded and he'd solo like a MOFO.

[@user-ni5fq1sg4v]

The comment not the music.

[@francoisgarcia8655]

Captured Live of Johnny Winter is my all time favorite guitar live album 😮

[@allenilardo3472]

Johnny Winter one of the best of greatest he will be missed I love him I cried when he died no guitar player like him

[@scottyboom6982]

we hung out after a show in 86. one of the greatest in more ways than on. all it ever does is rain. 😔✌️❤️

[@wolfgangmarkusgstrein8522]

What a voice not to speak of the guitar work... fantastic Johnny! Now the rain is coming down. Not from the sky but from my eyes ...

[@timb.2222]

You're right about both guitar and voice. He was an underrated singer. I always preferred his natural smooth voice, as opposed to his growl. He sings beautifully here, as he does on "Stranger," my favorite of all his songs.

[@billridge3289]

Finally the screaming demon.oh joy!

[@barrybrewer168]

I saw him in a small little bar in Galloway NJ he blew the roof off he is my favorite guitar player of all time and was like a mentor to my playing

[@mctavish23]

He was unbelievable.

[@bertranddelaporte4462]

I love Johnny ❤this song is a pure magic.

[@mihalispsychedelicrealeyes1284]

Don't think he knew how powerful and influential he was. He bled da blues. My man Johnny. I don't understand why we have to die, why did we loss Johnny, it really sucks. Any hoot, I can listen to him until I shuffle off this rock. Peace and love to all....

[@edgardtorres6162]

Thank you Johnny for all the great blues 🎸🎸🎸we missed you a lot 🎸🎸🎸

[@JohnDoe-jp8fx]

Pierces the soul!

[@spello8191]

The guy was a Genius. He was a true blues man who ripped on the guitar. RIP💜

[@mctavish23]

Amen to that

[@ENLIL60]

What a loss.....what a loss..........!! RIP Johnny. Your music will play forever.

[@theherbpuffer]

It was his time to go.

[@K1en]

The one and only....... Johnny Winter ☺

[@mathiasschenk9257]

NEVER forget you Johnny!! You are like a father for me - and a friend- such a long time I admire all your art of playing and singing! Yes, you are a very great artist!

[@richardlee866]

Johnny started tuning a whole step down in 1984 when he started playing the LAZER it had 10 on it and didn't like how they felt he was used to 9 to 42 with 24 3/4 Gibson. LAZER is 25 1/2 scale length he was not used to it so he end up using 10 -46 for the rest of his career and tune a whole down he love the sound of it also. Slide open E then open D later on. For slide have seen him Live use open A also.

[@Shockabilly1956]

I'm not a musician so I don't have a clue what all that means but I sure liked his tone on every guitar he had except the Lazer.

[@FernandoCastilhosbass]

THis is an amaing song, I love the feeling and the lyrics.

[@allenilardo3472]

Yeah Johnny went to one of the best I cried when he died what are the most underrated guitar players in the world he was great he will be missed love you Johnny

[@TheSpydersBand]

GREAT song by a great artist.

[@BonyFingers1969]

One of the Greatest Guitar slingers to ever live...RIP ...Bro ....Tks....

[@Alessandro-bu3dp]

The bridge into “All it ever does it RAINNN” pure blues

[@wichitarick]

A fav. album! saw him numerous times and places through the 80's :) Saw him and his brother :) jam together off and on for 5 hrs :) with BB KING as a walk on :) Those shows were called "EXTRAS" or something to that effect? one headliner the house charged twice what a show cost then 25$ a person, and looked the other way if you snuck in your own bottle :) they took a rough vote that night if they could sell enough seats lol he came back on Saturday and with another band basically did it all over again :) saw so many great shows there, uptown theatre in KCMO before they remodeled it :) saw so many awesome people back then,did not know much about blues then but did know great rock & rollers:) thanks Keep rockin. peace. Rick

Que grande Johnny Winter! una bestia...como se extraña la guitarra esa!

[@theherbpuffer]

Haven't heard enough blues in the last several years, but I'm making up for that now. Johnny top 5 blues rock guitarist no doubt

[@davidtrevino5031]

One of the top 5 rock guitarist of all time PERIOD oh yeah 😎🎸

[@szphllps]

My favorite Winter song. Met him in Chattanooga, TN shortly after this album came out. He was so shy and we were so intimidated.

[@grahamburns3593]

My favourite musician of all time and saw him at Dapto believe it or not many years ago on great hash.

[@FirstLast-nt6hu]

hell, man - taking marahoochie will mess up your chromiums!

[@mikkemus82]

Best blues song ever!

[@darylgaudin8175]

Thank You, Johnny, for so many nights @ A Warehouse!

[@sixtring6]

Had to listen this morning,17 July 2014 RIP Johnny

[@fishing4truth91]

I wore this album out; great tune by a one of a kind blues slinger.

[@ricksmith2206]

Masterpiece

[@bellgab]

I had the privilege of seeing him and Edgar a couple times together, and Johnny 3 times with his bands. Blues from an ancient soul master.

[@mctavish23]

Beautifully stated

[@scottyboom6982]

Winter of 88, small venue in Indianapolis. Changed my shit forever! I love you Johnny! This,this is my jam.✌

[@johnnysneaker1]

Definitely his best song and one of the few that could have been commercially successful.

[@FirstLast-nt6hu]

what about 'Stranger?

[@13adulte]

So nice... RIP brother.

[@theherbpuffer]

This song just made a grown man cry

[@heavenstakesgoodrich2472]

Here in the Pacific Northwest Seattle area. We understand rain. November . beautiful song .

[@ericmajors2102]

still the greatest blues ablum that I have ever heard in my life, thus far.

[@Smudgefizz]

I just found an old mixed tape I'd made off the radio, hadn't played it for 20 years. I was fast forwarding thru it when I heard this song. The tape player played a bit fast, so the vocals sounded higher & I didn't recognize who it was, but the lead guitar was like "Wow.. WHO is this, Clapton on guitar??" So I Googled some of the lyrics, & up came this song! I'm familiar with Winter's 60's & 70's stuff, but I never listened to him during his period - a bit more "rock", but wicked soloing!

[@62slingon]

RIP Johnny :(

[@mayegs49]

Winter por siempre .expectacular

[@MrThresher7]

This was a Dan Daley composition...The same guy who wrote the super hit "Still in Saigon" for The Charlie Daniels Band! Fantastico...Johnny The Great.

[@thomasjones9663]

[@WillsRushpage]

$65.00 for tickets, not bad. Trying to work that out for my wife and I. Have seen JW about 4 times... always awesome.

[@MarkwayHomes]

isn't that something? coming to that little hall! what a show it's gna be

[@stanvanderlugt8271]

[@alainshem5279]

Yesssss...

[@jefl5629]

Excelente rola👍

[@johnnysneaker1]

This is my favorite Johnny Winter song. It's pure genius. He's not well lately and plays BB Kings...check him out!

[@lonewolf1053]

Yep.. all it does is rain.. for sure

[@kritsanakanittayon4966]

Great solo forever

[@bobbyanderson101]

@ShredMaster79 think he means underrated meaning in guitar magazine he qualified about 80 something in rank, jimi hendrix being #1 of course but it is a matter of oppinion and in mine they should both be #1

[@alainshem5279]

that's always been my feeling

[@clayedmonds2681]

coolest Song

[@craigmccauley5807]

Great!

[@donaldaddington5979]

Johnny b hella good bluesmen

[@mulemusic]

Did Johnny EVER play this song live? Would love to hear a live version!!

[@punkk7777]

Same

[@johnlaws7530]

Why isn’t this song on Spotify???

[@carolvanslyke1668]

Does anyone have a bootleg of this song. No one I know has heard J.W. do this live.

[@ledzeppelin5995]

Here's the guitar tab for this track. tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/j/johnny_winter/rain_crd.htm

[@Marco81blues]

+LED ZEPPELIN Nice man, but why not use Johnny's tunning? DGCFAD

[@ledzeppelin5995]

+Marco81blues I didn,t know it was out of tune, but ahh well it still plays ok.

[@Marco81blues]

LED ZEPPELIN Yeah, Johnny used D standard through a huge chunk of his career, I not sure why, for me it sounds great, it gives more of that cowboy sound if you will, especially playing open strings. It doesn't matter much in this song, but he plays alot of blues in D, which as you know moves everything to the standard E positions,it makes some diference, also when he plays in the key of G. Anyway big Johnny Winter fan here :) keep up the good work new Johnny Winter tabs are hard to come by.

[@ledzeppelin5995]

+Marco81blues Cool i will keep that in mind if I do more johnny tabs, I came upon johnny through his brother Edgar, another crazy albino dude, who is excellent multi instrumentalist. i,m not a big fan of detuning a guitar, i would rather play tunes in standard, it just does my head in tuning a guitar up and down ha ha

[@miken2213]

good looking out''

[@TheRickc67]

had on cassette- but i had to sell it -SAD

[@vulveeta]

he must have spent some time in Seattle.

[@myristicanz]

👍

[@tracyhoward1536]

True Mr Winter was no David Gilmore, but I grew up on the both of them melody and speed(blues speed) Steve Via has amazing speed, but Johnny had blues speed which is different. He was a master not only for his playing, but his free spirit Willy Nelson look. It's done bro.

[@richardsorgman5418]

well said
