Customer Rating:      Summary: Blues-rock heaven Comment: When I read that Johnny Winter was about to release a series of material from his vaults, I was really excited. I actually got this one priot to Volume 1; I thought the set list was a little better. All I can say is : Wow ! If you're a Johnny Winter fan, or a fan of blues-rock trios like SRV, Rory Gallagher, etc. then this is a MUST !
Customer Rating:      Summary: Smokin' hot blues Johnny Winter Style!!! Comment: More great live music from the real king of texas blues. This material is killer. BUT, when they say bootleg, they mean it... The mix sounds if taken from a sound board and maybe ran thru a sound enhancer. Not sure if it is just my cd, but the treble is way up -sounding like it is maxed out to hide the hiss. You have to turn it down -which on my car deck is a pain. But then again, you have to take the bad with the good when it comes to a legend like Johnny Winter. If you are like me, you will buy everything he puts out -and relish it. Which is exactly what I do - and you should too. They do not make them like Johnny Winter anymore. He was and still is the one first real and true Texas blues guitar slinger! Apoligies to SRV, but without Johnny Winter, there would be no Stevie Ray. Rock me baby, crossroads, and red house??? Come on!!! This IS the BLUES!!! I can't wait for for bootleg vol III, IV, and V!!!!
Customer Rating:      Summary: CAPITOL THEATER MEMORIES Comment: Wow, volumes 1 and 2 bring back so many great memories of seeing Johnny at the Capitol in Passiac in the early eighties. Saw him at least 3 times in a 2 year period including one show at the Beacon with Roy Buchanon and Buddy Guy. These recordings were probably from the late seventies, but with the same lineup. Jon Paris was an amazing bass player, and even though Johnny seemed to switch drummers evry couple of yeras they were all talented, and brought their own unique style. Johnny was simple the best guitar player ever, period .
Customer Rating:      Summary: Johnny still kicks it ! Comment: When I got this I was not too pleased by the sound quality.
It has too much top end , a little treble-ish for my taste , but the music ROCKS !!!
A gotta have for blues fans everywhere.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Johnny Winter Live Bootleg Vol-1 ROCKS Comment: This "album" is highly recommended! This is a must-have for any fan of Johnny Winter or blazing guitar playing. The band's music overcomes any shortcomings in the sound quality. (Volume 1 is a better recording, but volume 2 may have more innovative playing.) After all, these are live recordings, from an era before sophisticated remote music equipment. Don't let the warts spoil a fantastic musical experience. Sit back (if you can) and enjoy! The licks aren't as polished (occasionally) as his studio albums, but the improvisation is fantastic. This group puts out an amazing sound for three members.
