Texas Blues Guitar – Johnny Winter – Roots

https://everitte.org/y8mson96 I still remember fondly one of my very first concerts back in the mid 1990’s saw Johnny Winter play the National Arts Center Theatre here in Ottawa…a venue typically reserved for proper theatre goers rather than loud, heavy drinking bikers, youth and blues revellers – but that night turned out to be magic.

follow site watch “Further On Up The Road” – Oh ya, I love the texas shuffle, and T-Bone was the master.  Johnny stays true to the original form and adds his own stinging licks to this one.  Damn…now I have to go through the entire day with that shuffle inside my head

https://traffordhistory.org/lookingback/fepteu6 Other collaborations on this tasty CD include Susan Tedeschi (wherever Derek Trucks goes these days Susan is right there at his side),  a nice shuffle with Edgar Winter (his brother).
