Best Johnny Winter Live Albums

There weren’t many live albums from the great white bluesman Johnny Winter until he started to release his Live Bootleg Series but now the choice has got much more difficult.

Irritatingly these bootlegs have been released without providing dates of the live concert recordings so we can’t use his peak time as a guide to finding the best live albums.

I’ve therefore created a poll to collect readers votes.

Edgar & Johnny Winter Together 1975

Together is a live album by brothers Edgar Winter and Johnny Winter.

It was recorded in 1975 on the same tour as Johnny Winter’s Captured Live album and was released in 1976.

From what I’ve read, it seems that on that tour, both brothers would perform their own sets and then finish the evening with a combined set. I think that sounds a great idea and it’s a shame that there isn’t a complete concert recording of the two Winter brothers.

Whilst Johnny Winter was the regular guitar hero playing blues rock, Edgar Winter, a keyboard player and saxophonist was playing more of a R&B blend of blues and rock&roll.
