SRV vs. Johnny Winter

Classof75 · 09-20-2009, 09:29 AM

SRV and Johnny Winter are both Texas Blues players. There is a certain sound they both have, but both have drawn upon classic blues (Mississippi Delta and Chicago blues) for the songs they have done. Johnny Winter has leaned more towards Delta stuff, and SRV more Chicago or the urban style. Winter has been around longer (he's older) and while not in great health, he still plays. Saw him a few times back in the 70's, awesome
player. White Hot and Blue and Still Alive And Well are a few of may favorite albums.
