Johnny Winter - Live NYC '97 (CD 1998)

Once again Johnny Winter proves that he is one of only a handful of white guys who can truly play blues guitar! His talent and mastery of the genre has not been dimmed over the years and he pulls off solo after solo in his distinctive tone to spine tingling effect! Check out his version of The Sky is Crying. Sadly his vocal prowess does not match his prodigious guitar playing, and his backing band have a tendancy to bask in Winter's reflected glory rather than contribute in their own right. Still, it is a spirited performance in front of an appreciative audience and will not dissappoint the fans. Well worth adding to your collection. TNR - UK - Mar 2008
