It was with sadness that we heard the news this week that Roger The Hat Manifold, a prominent and much loved roadie in the 1970s for Pink Floyd, Johnny Winter, and many others, passed away on October 31st, 2009. He got his famous nickname due to his habit of wearing a top hat (and other such headwear) during his roadie duties. He is best known to Floyd fans as one of the more notable voices heard on...

As the adverts always have it - NEW! IMPROVED! VIM! And, no doubt, ZIP A DEE DOO-DAH! too So, Vim is a concept that can mean many things to many people. Over on the Mothership, some people seem to have objected to the idea that up tempo songs automatically means vimminess, but I don't know about that, one woman's Vim is another woman's Cillit Bang. Personally, a toe-tapping quality switches on my vim...

Paul Rishell, Annie Raines give new life to old blues
post-gazette.com (Free subscription) | 11/02/2009
Paul and Annie work on one of their electric numbers. (Jim White photo) As you will no doubt remember, I was really looking forward to seeing the very fine blues duo of Paul Rishell and Annie Raines Friday night at the Thunderbird Cafe. Well, I did exactly that, and I did not leave disappointed -- just like the rest of the audience. Their ability to create an intimate evening of passionate music carved...

The State of Woodstock 40 Years Later: Janis Joplin and Johnny Winter
All About Jazz (Free subscription) | 10/31/2009
Rock music ascended into heaven the minute guitarist {{Jimi Hendrix = 13353}} left the stage on Max Yasgur's farm, Monday morning, August 18, 1969. The Woodstock Music and Art Fair was a cultural hinge between the soulful, struggling 1960s and the sinful, superfluous 1970s. The release of The Woodstock Experience commercially mirrors this hinge. The box contains two-CD sets by Santana, Janis Joplin,...

Guitar Lifestyle (Free subscription) | 10/11/2009
I can’t remember how I came across this article, but I recently found a classic article about Eric Johnson from 1986. The article was written around the time of the release of Johnson’s album Tones. Several of Johnson’s contemporaries are quoted in the article, including Steve Morse, Billy Gibbons, Johnny Winter, and Stevie Ray Vaughan, [...]

Well, not really but it sounded good. Now, I love Bob Dylan but there are a few songs of his that others have done far better (in my humble opinion). First up, a Jimi Hendrix cover: Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower And then: Johnny Winter - Highway 61 Revisited It's the guitar work ...
