    You Must be Joking!!!
    or an Idiot. Stevie Ray was a Good Showman and had he lived long enough he may someday have been as good a guitar player as his Brother but never in a million years would he have come close to Johnny Winter. I can only think of two white guitar players who I believe to be in the same league with Johnny. Alvin Lee, & Peter Green.
    Thanks for Playing YOU LOSE AGAIN…

    Of course he doesn’t need it but it would benefit everyone if he were inducted to Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, so long as the ignorant and unaware walk around calling someone else is the greatest and saying ” Johnny who, you mean Edgar Winter “. Just the televised presentation is gonna make new people see him. It is pathetic how many people don’t know who this is.

    I saw Johnny last week. While he did not have the lightning speed and the power that he had when I saw him in the seventies and eighties, he still has remarkable tone, timing and feel. He did fire off a few riffs that took me back almost forty years.

    Fuck the rock and roll hall of fame. JW doesn’t need any of that sort of cheap recognition. He is a legend. The hall of fame is for bands like Genesis and Mr. Mr…. The Sex Pistols got it right.

    I agree. He is the man. The only thing is there are so many players who are great as well. Different styles but great none the less. I love Johnny’s licks there are some of the best of all times. I have ever heard. EVER!!!

    If any blues man should make Hall of Fame it should be Johnny. LET everyone know. JOHNNY WINTER:KING of TEXAS BLUES.

    I’m not sure I want JW in the RRHF anymore. He’d be right beside a lot of lesser talents. He’s just the most incredible blues improviser i’ve ever heard by far. He still sets the standard for all of us aspiring guitarists. Every time I see him I just shake my head in disbelief….

    couldn’t agree more. But it’s a close call with songs like Mean Mistreater and It’s My Own Fault just riding behind, close behind ;-)

    Johnny Winter is the MAN! It’s such a shame that he is never included in lists of greatest guitarists of all time. His licks on the studio version are awesome! This song changed my playing. After I heard it I went out and got the album and a thumbpick so I could jam Johnny Winter Style!

    I hope the fools at the rock and roll hall of fame have the decencey to istall him before he’s gone — what idiots !!!! should have been in years ago !!!

    I love it when someone can cross borders and be appreciated for who they are and what they do. Some people are just universal like the music they play. I have seen Johnny dozens of times and have quite a few pics I shot of him. I will have to scan them and post em. I wish the british guitarists would tour America more often, I had to fly to Leeds just to see Gary Moore.

    His first album just kills. What a legend, one of Texas Blues’ finest. In the righ mood me and my pals here in the UK reckon his first album is in the top five EVER.

    Ya, and he did that 40 years ago! The most underrated, overlooked guitar hero of the
    ’60s.

    This is my all time favorite Johny Winter song. He nailed it in the studio. Johnny is the king of taking someone else’s song and making it all his own. This one along with the live version of Jumping Jack Flash from live at the Fillmore as well as Stray Cat Blues from Saints and Sinners are just 3 examples. Who can forget what he did to Dylans’ Highway 61? He belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I could go on about his history but, enough said.

    I hope the rest of the music world realizes it. He does melodic flurries on his runs,unlike the rest.
