Description
Johnny Winter US 2nd Press LP Progressive blues experiment VG+ '69 Imperial
Original US 2nd Press LP released in 1969 on Imperial Records. Cat: LP12431.
Uncovered in the out back of N.S.W. this record is part of a recent collection stored and unplayed for the last 20 years. Collected during the 90's and mostly sourced from overseas kept in a cool dry cellar there are some tasty gems on offer and we look forward on listing them over the next few months.
Although his early Columbia albums brought him worldwide stardom, it was this modest little album (first released on Imperial before the Columbia sides) that first brought Johnny Winter to the attention of guitarheads in America. It's also Winter at the beginning of a long career, playing the blues as if his life depends on it, without applying a glimmer of rock commercialism. The standard classic repertoire here includes "Rollin' and Tumblin'," "I Got Love if You Want It," "Forty-Four," "It's My Own Fault," and "Help Me," with Winter mixing it up with his original Texas trio of Red Turner on drums and Tommy Shannon (later of Stevie Ray Vaughan's Double Trouble) on bass. A true classic, this is one dirty, dangerous, and visionary album.
Tracks : Rollin' and tumblin'/ Tribute to Muddy/ I got love if you want it/ Bad luck and trouble/ Help me/ Mean town blues/ Broke down engine/ Black cat bone/ It's my own fault/ Forty-four.
