One of the things I've always liked about Johnny Winter is that he always lets his rhythm guitarist play a little lead. Rick Derringer played rhythm in his band for a while. He's on one of his live albums where he played backup on It's My Own Fault. Couldn't find it on YouTube. If you like blues, you would like this version of it.

Posted by: CharlieDelta on May 10, 2009 03:28 AMHow about Boney Maronie? Johnny is probably one of the best blues guitarists to ever touch the instrument. Period.

(Sorry, I don't have a clue what I'm saying. If CD said it, it must be right!!!!!)
