John “Johnny” Winter III (Beaumont, 23 febbraio 1944) è un chitarrista e cantante statunitense, di blues e rock.
È celebre per l’uso della chitarra slide e per i suoi lunghi capelli bianchi; Winter, infatti, è affetto da albinismo, difetto per via del quale faticava a trovare ragazze disposte a dargliela e gli altri lo prendevano sempre per il culo. Allora nel 1965 stanco di pippe e per darsi un tono e un’ importanza decise di diventare una rock’n’roll star . Da allora però non ci è ancora riuscito. È fratello di Edgar Winter, anch’egli musicista. Ma si odiano.

Track listing
Personnel
Johnny began performing at an early age with Edgar. His recording In 1968, Winter began playing in a trio with bassist Tommy Shannon and drummer Uncle John Turner. An article in Rolling Stone magazine written by Larry Sepulvado helped generate interest in the group. The album Johnny Winter was released near the end of that year. In 1969 they performed at numerous rock festivals including Woodstock. Contrary to urban legend, however, Johnny did not perform with Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison on the infamous Hendrix bootleg recording “Woke up this Morning and Found Myself Dead” Winter struggled with a heroin addiction in the early part of his career. After eventually recovering from the addiction, in 1973, he returned to the music scene in classic form with Still Alive and Well, a song written by Rick Derringer saluting Winter for overcoming his addiction. In live performances, Winter often tells the story about how, as a child, he dreamed of playing with the blues guitarist Muddy Waters. In 1977, he accomplished this goal and produced the Muddy Waters album Hard Again. In 1978, he experienced continued success with the production of Waters’ I’m Ready. He followed this in 1980, by producing Muddy’s final effort, the album King Bee. Their partnership produced a number of Grammy-winning recordings throughout, and he recorded the album Nothing but the Blues with members from Muddy Waters’ band. There are quite a few Johnny Winter albums that are considered “non-official.” A majority of these albums were produced by Roy Ames, owner of Home Cooking Records/ Clarity Music Publishing. According to a Houston Press article dated Aug 28, 2003, Johnny Winter left town for the express purpose of getting away from him. Roy Ames died on August 14, 2003 of natural causes at age 66. As Ames left no obvious heirs, the ownership rights of the Ames master recordings remains unclear. As Johnny stated in an interview when the subject of Roy Ames came Current ToursIn a recent interview for North Bay Bohemian, a Northern California weekly, Johnny explained his current approach to music: “Most of the stuff I do is fairly old,” he says, which befits the Despite experiencing several health crises in recent years, Fans at an August 23, 2008 show in Bowling Green, Kentucky were Accomplishments & HomagesWinter produced two Grammy winning albums by Muddy Waters, Hard Again and I’m Ready. At least three of his own albums were also nominated for Grammy awards. He was one of the many acts to perform at the Woodstock Festival, playing a nine song set that featured his brother Edgar on two of the songs. He was on the cover of the first Guitar World in 1980. In 1988, he was inducted into the Blues Foundation Hall of Fame. The Smashing Pumpkins paid homage to Winter by recording an instrumental song titled Tribute to Johnny, in which they try to emulate Winter’s unique sound. The song was originally intended for their highly acclaimed 1995 album Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness but was rejected and eventually turned as b-side on their Zero single and also was included in their box-set The Aeroplane Flies High. |
