Real Winter
John Dawson Winter III, b. Beaumont, Texas (1944- ). Note to U.S. generic weenies ("no guts, no gospel") born after 1965: Johnny Winter is a straight-up Boomer Hero. No secret that listening to him could make you tougher. Make you ready to compete. Make you work harder. Make you stop whining. Make you stop settling for mediocre.
Real Winter makes a blind man see.
"...put some bleachers out in the sun/And have it out on Highway 61".

Aside from G.E. Smith's silly haircut, I really enjoy this performance. Playing slide guitar is not as easy as Johnny makes it look. Then again, the great ones often make it look easy.
