Summary: 5 Stars
A really fine disc. You don't see much about Johnny anymore, so this DVD is a must-have!Movie Review: A Great JOHNNY WINTER DVD
Summary: 4 Stars
This DVD is a treat. It's generally great compared to the few other Johnny Winter DVDs I've seen. Considering Johnny's been performing for 40 years it's unfortunate there aren't more of his shows captured.
Not all tracks on this DVD are of equal quality - the Albert Hall concert is an electric performance but the footage is rough. The source video on some of the later German concerts seems to have slightly deteriorated in spots but it doesn't detract much from the quality of Winter's excellent performances.
The earlier Danish footage is extraordinarily sharp for its age - with great sound - surprisingly enjoyable to watch. The interviews are spontaneous, whimsical, humorous, even a bit ominous - and provide a rare glimpse into the personality of the man behind the searing blues riffs. Winter's performances of 'Be Careful With a Fool' and 'Fast Life Rider' are mesmerizing (These songs are listed on the DVD as 'Be Careful Of The Fool' and 'Drop the Bomb'), as is the German production of 'Mean Town Blues'. Fantastic!
Highly recommended if you're a fan of this legendary guitarist.
Movie Review: Not perfect, but very good
Summary: 4 Stars
Great DVD, the only low point for me was the stupid interview segments. excluding the "key to the highway" performance which was sweet. There's a version of "R&R Hootchie coo" from the same show on Youtube which is also great, wonder why its not on here???
Not much Johnny available on DVD though, we have to take what we can get. IMO its a good buy. He really wails on some of these songs. I'm glad I bought it.
Movie Review: Johnny Winter in the 70's
Summary: 4 Stars
Johnny Winter is a favorite who never strayed too far away from his his originals.
While a fine capable,musician, Edgar is prone to going over the top to the point of irritation.
Good that he doesn't try that here. He seems to be willing to assume a background position here
and let his older brother shine. Mean Town great song.
