Oh, gerade fliegt die Meldung durch die Netzwerke, dass Blues-Legende Johnny Winter gestorben ist.
Johnny Winter ist "nur" 70 Jahre alt geworden - ich schreibe "nur", weil ich schon vor 15 Jahren dachte, er sei über sechzig - was nicht zuletzt auch an seinem derben Aussehen lag.

Ich bin ja nun nicht unbedingt bekannt dafür, dass ich Gitarrengefuddel, und besonders BLUESgitarrengefuddel, unbedingt ganz toll finde, aber Johnny Winter fand ich immer schon besonders.

John Dawson Winter III — better known as Johnny Winter — was widely regarded as one of the greatest blues guitar players in music history. Best known for his high-energy blues-rock albums and live performances in the late 1960s and ’70s, Winter also produced three Grammy Award-winning albums for blues legend Muddy Waters. Since his time with Waters, Winter has recorded several Grammy-nominated blues albums and continues to tour extensively. In 1988, he was inducted into the Blues Foundation Hall of Fame and in 2003, he was ranked 63rd in Rolling Stone magazine’s list of the “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.”

Nein, jetzt bitte keine "he didn't woke up this morning" Bluesmusiker Witze, danke.
