Subject: Johnny Winter. R.I.P.

The music world mourns the death of blues icon Johnny Winter who passed away in Zurich while on tour. One of my favorite shows was watching him at the skating rink in Central Park; went to the concert with about a dozen friends and took up a whole row of seats, sweet!

Damn, sorry to hear this. We've lost another REAL bluesman. Johnny always stayed close to his blues roots. He rocked out at times but the blues were always in his basic sound. I think Johnny's greatest accomplishment was helping Muddy Waters re-ignite his career in the mid to late 1970's. He brought out some great music by Muddy. Rest in peace Mr. Winter.

People in my area of Texas are sad as well especially since he was apart of this area for a long time.
