Finally
by David Miranda (chubbuck, Idaho United States)
Excellent calrity for such an old recording. This should have been released years ago instead of waiting until the producers or whom ever decided to release this needed money. No need to add the first album at all other than to justify the cost.
Johnny was way ahead of his time. This comes too late to attract new fans. He deserved to be in the movie.
4/5
Woodstock gem
by D. Hill (Chandler, AZ)
The studio part of this is good stuff, but the real reason to buy this is the Woodstock set. I collect Johnny Winter live music. This is as good sounding to me as any of the live stuff I have. I am not sure why he was not in the movie, but I can tell you, they really messed up by leaving Johnny Winter out of it! I was expecting a sound quality similiar to the bootleg series which is a soundboard type of recording. BUT what you get here is a great live recording of a true legend. In my opinion, this Woodstock recording blows away the bootleg series. It really sounds like it could have been recorded recently with updated equipment. Yes there is some better live playing from Johnny on other cd's, but overall, this is a true gem. Anyone who enjoys listening to great guitar playing live will want this in their collection.
5/5
Smokin' White HOT, Johnny and Edgar ROCK
by Buckwheat (usa)
Oh man, if only to have been there...
There is so much about this CD to love, especially if you are a fan of the Winter brothers.
Early version of Tobacco Road, Edgar when he was still in the shadows, and some very early performances of material off of Second Winter before it was even released. Not to mention, Johnny is blistering HOT.
A must have addition for all Johnny Winter fans, actually a must have even if you are one of the few that have never heard or don't like the Winter Bros.
4/5
Excellent early Johnny with Edgar
by Bob Condon (Chicago, IL United States)
The live Woodstock show is an excellent early Johnny show. It shows him making the transition from the traditional blues material that he played early on (as in his first Columbia album that is disc 1 here and the live album "Progressive Blues Experiment"). He has yet to start playing the rock covers that would make him ultra famous in the early/mid 70's although he shows a bit of that here with Johnny B Goode. My favorite Johnny will always be his work with Muddy Waters. He would play so clean and smooth with Muddy at the helm that it was chilling. As it goes in "Miss Ann" she calls it so sweet and plain.
The live shows from their 77 tour are among the very favorites in my collection. I have the Boston and Philly shows (released as Two from the Tower) If anyone has more of that, I'd love to hear it. The interplay between Johnny and Muddy and James Cotton and the all star band is life changing. The show in Chicago is still the best live show I've ever seen. Their version of Walkin Thru the Park (a Muddy hit from 1955)on Johnny's album Nothin But the Blues is unbelievable. You can catch a live version of it on You Tube from 1981.
There is also an error here. Track #5 on the Woodstock set is "I'm Not Sure" from Second Winter. They have it listed as "I Can't Stand it"
4/5
very good, but not the best
by FastFolkert (the Netherlands)
This review is about the Woodstock recording only; the other disc has been reviewed by others ;-)
First of all, it's a shame that this recording was never published before (officially, that is...). The sound quality is good, given the age. However, the band's playing (including JW), is not as good as the Royal Albert Hall April 1970 live set.
E.g. in track 4 the rhythm section doesn't really sound very tight. Also the bass sounds quite "sloppy" there.
Johnny himself is also a bit less "driven" than on the RAH set. Just compare Johnny B. Goode on both recordings: In the RAH he's really playing as if he were on fire, with LOTS of energy. On the Woodstock set it's slightly more relaxed IMHO.
OTOH, track 5 ("I'm not sure" - here called "I can't stand it") is really great, with Edgar playing keyboards. This song is very rarely heard live. Also interesting is the long version of "Johnny B. Goode"; again with Edgar on keyboards.
On "tell the truth" J and E even sing harmony, also rarely heard live on any JW recording
Anyway, it's a very good performance, relatively good quality sound, and especially historically very important.
Johnny Winter:The Woodstock Experience (2CD) Summary
One goal of the Woodstock festival was to highlight lesser-known acts along with the superstars. Johnny Winter was such an artist, yet there is no doubt his performance was on the level of a superstar. His recently released self-titled album highlighted Winter's prowess in the blues rock world, and his high energy performance at Woodstock elevated him to the level of guitar god.
