Blues guitarist, Johnny Winter brother of Edgar Winter died yesterday. He was one of my all time favorites. I saw him and his brother play at the Twin City Ballroom in Elizabeth, NJ back on June 23rd 1973. I was just listening to one of his albums on Sunday and talking to my kids about him. He was great on the slide guitar maybe the s best in the bussiness.
