Happy 58th, Johnny Winter

Johnny has made it through another year. I fell for Johnny when I was 13 and he was playing his harder, rockier stuff. I then bought some of his older albums. When I heard him play things like Robert Johnson's "Kind Hearted Woman", Blind Willie McTell's(?) "Broke Down Engine" and his own "Dallas" I fell in love with the acoustic slide sound. It was through him that I found the originals, but I still love what Johhny does with the Blues.

Happy Birthday Johnny.
