Movie Reviews of Live Through the 70's
Movie Review: EASY 5
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been a Winter fan since the 70's, so far this is the best footage I have seen of him. Lot's of good interviews, some good close ups of him also. The quality on most of this is great, and yes some is blurry, but it is good just to have live footage. It shows Johnny in his prime, lots of excellent guitar solos too. He plays with a lot of different people, but no matter what he just shines like you would expect. Overall this is a must have for Winter fans, way better than (Pieces & Bits) or (Live At Time Square) for sure. I know some people will complain about it, so if you want perfection you might not like it. So far this is the best there is on DVD, so why not just watch and enjoy it. And he also does some great slide work, this is something I love to watch him do, what a master.Movie Review: Worth every penny

I read the many reviews before buying this DVD, and I have to say to those that were negative, to stop being so picky! The version of Frankenstien was worth the price of the whole video!! Yes a few of the songs the video was old and a bit grainy, but they didnt have HD cameras back then. And a german VJ interupts a song for a few seconds (boo hoo). I found the sound to be great on most all of the songs. I saw JW a couple of years ago and he now sits on a chair and plays, but is still impressive as a blues/rock guitarist. I only own 1 album by him, it was recorded live in the 70's, so maybe thats why I found this collection so excellent. I find it hard to believe that anyone would not enjoy this DVD, even a hardcore collector who has tons of his music should find this worth the money!Movie Review: exquisite

now that DVD was well worth the few dollars...(i would have willingly paid more)...just fantastic how this disc takes one back to the seventies...and johnny (with his brother EDGAR the virtuoso)
it was mr. winter in the seventies who introduced me to blues and i cant thank him enough for it.not many came close to his playing,may i just name rory gallagher here and walter trout and lately the emergence of dave hole....those come close to it but: wow ...what a privilige to live in these exciting (bluesical)times.... well thanks johnny for putting that disc together it will live on for a looong time.anyone interested in blues,....listen in its worth it..
Movie Review: A Very Welcome DVD Release by Johnny Winter - "Bravo"!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is Johnny Winter at his best!!! This is a compilation of performances throughout the 70's, and they are all outstanding. Johnny is an excellent "TEXAS" Bluesman and Blues guitarist. It starts with the Edgar Winter Group classic "Frankenstein" a 1973 HIT, with Johnny's brother Edgar, along with Johnny playing the guitar. Then it gets into some classic rock songs performed by Johnny, such as "Johnny Be Good" and "Rock & Roll Hoochie Koo", the rest is mainly blues. This is a great one by one of the best bluesman of all time - Johnny Winter!!! I do highly recommend it, thanks and may God Bless!!!Movie Review: Finally...an excellent document of the 70's

First saw JW in 1970 @ the Spectrum in Philly..w/the Allman Bros..he was backstage @ the Atlantic City Pop Festival on 8/2/69 but didn't perform because his equiptment didn't arrive...I managed to catch almost every tour from 73 when he played the bay area..this is the best & only document so far from this time period....I took this cover shot at Winterland in San Francisco in March of 74...see this image on my website...hopefully there will be a part 2 to this excellent DVD in the near future as there is more great stuff out there...Peter Stupar...SF, Ca.
