He and Eric Clapton are two of the greatest "white" blues players who have ever lived.

I really enjoy watching the Winter boys. Blackfoot was a really good band, saw them in concert twice. I love hearing that song when on a road trip.

J.J. Cale was also one of the greats, and he and Clapton are a lot alike.

Many people don't even know who JJ is. My cousin liked him and she had lots of his albums.

Edgar and Johnny Winter's home bar was in Vallejo CA, just outside the gates of the Naval Station at Mare Island CA. I was stationed there about 9 months. Johnny or Edgar would show up from time to time and jam with the local band at their home bar.

The best show I saw from either was at the White Horse Saloon in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Johnny played blues for 2 nights with only a bass player who had broken fingers on his left hand and a drummer.

He put on 4 fantastic shows! It was awesome! 2 sets each night.

Johnny and Edgar Winter are definitely two more of the "greats." If you go back into the mid-60's to mid-70's, there are a BUNCH of really good artists/bands, many of which are being forgotten today. I could probably name at least 25 really good artists/bands from that era right off the top of my head. Some awesome music was originated in that time!!
