Review by Tracy Swartz

Live Johnny Winter And is an electrifying album that showcases the raw talent of blues guitarist Johnny Winter and his band. Recorded live in 1971, the album captures the energy and intensity of Winter's live performances, as he tears through a selection of blues classics and original compositions.

The album kicks off with a blistering rendition of "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl," with Winter's searing guitar solos setting the tone for the rest of the album. He is backed by a tight rhythm section, with Tommy Shannon on bass and Uncle John Turner on drums, who keep the grooves tight and propulsive throughout.

Winter's vocals are gritty and soulful, and his guitar playing is nothing short of virtuosic. He effortlessly blends elements of rock, blues, and jazz into his playing, creating a sound that is uniquely his own. Highlights of the album include the slow-burning blues of "Mean Town Blues," the funky "Johnny B. Goode," and the epic "It's My Own Fault."
