The Winters bros are the real deal.. Both world class musicians singers and producers. This song is actually a conglomeration of their warmup routines.. People would try and get in early to hear them warm up and rehearse so he decided to record a warmup session and this is what they got..
The story when I was growing up was that they had finished an album and the label told them they had to have another song. After some argument the group decided the people wanted to hear us warm up so we will. This was a stick in the eye to the label and turned out to be one of their most popular songs.
Edgar is still active. In fact, he recently won a Grammy for his blues album, "Brother John", a tribute to his late brother. An awesome natural talent.
I’m 61 and this is one of my favorite songs to see first time “reactions” to…priceless…my generation was very very fortunate “music wise”…respect…
Edgar Winter = musical savant! I enjoy Free Ride and Tobacco Road that he did with his brother Johnny’s band. Johnny is a great guitarist. Interesting fact he and his brother are both albino. He is phenomenal!❤️🔥✌🏻🫶🏻
Oh yeab Tobacco Road is something else. Please react to that one 2 😇
Amen ! Tobacco Road PLEASE live
Unanimous, ya gotta do Tobacco Road with Brother Johnny, absofuckinlutely amazing
Edgar and John are definitely badass! Love Tobacco Road and another favorite of mine is Dallas by Johnny.
Glad you said it because I was going to say Johnny's version of Tobacco Road is deffo one to react to.
If you want to hear Edgar's vocal abilities, Tobacco Road with his brother Johnny is a MUST listen.
Edgar and his brother Johnny, an outstanding blues guitarist were both albinos. The sun hurt their eyes while growing up in East Texas so they stayed inside and mastered music. As others have suggested, react to them together doing Tobacco Road! Johnny's gone now but Edgar is still going strong. Also it's Winter, not Winters to make searching for them easier.
BTW, Edgar Winter is the guy who played the sax solo in Tina Turner's Simply the Best song and it is considered by many sax players to be a staple in rock music. You can see him in the official video clip at the end, with his shiny hair :) Also, you got mad funk in this song, but if you want mad soul, check out Tobacco road.
Simply, this was just one of the sounds of the 70s, meant to enjoy.
Edgar Winter and his brother Johnny are among the most under rated musicians of all time. Edgar was a musical genius, Edgar and his brother both have albinism. Edgar plays keyboard, drums, Sax, guitar, bass and piano. I once got the privilege to play with Edgar before a concert at Star Light theater in Kansas City, MO. I was Concert pianist for the Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra at the time. He was a very friendly and pleasant man.
He and his brother Johnny are genuine full albino twins. Johnny played with Edgar on my favorite song of theirs, “Tobacco Road.” It’s a pure blues song that is bad days as hell.
Tat keyboard around his neck is one of the earliest synthesizers: the amp-style box behind him (that he is adjusting during the "weird noises" section) is the actual synthesizer, and the keyboard is just that - the keyboard input device: it still weighed 15-20 pounds. It was designed to be on a desk or stand - somewhat like a piano or organ - but Edgar didn't like being that tied to one spot, so he screwed on a strap and created the first "keytar"!
The song itself is an arrangement of bits from pre-show warm-up exercises: when putting together the band's first album, they needed one more song than they had prepared - so Edgar went back into his library of recordings from live shows, got all the warm-up songs, and started splicing together some of the best bits. Chuck Ruff, the band's drummer, came into the studio and saw the chaos of spliced tapes and said something to the effect of "You're creating a Frankenstein!" After Edgar had put together a song he was happy with, the band worked it into a clean arrangement that could be played regularly - and a legendary piece of music history was created (not born, of course 😛)
The song is hard to categorize - it is definitely heavy/hard rock, but also has a strong funk element, draws on blues roots, and has many elements of progressive rock. I suspect that the "weird noises" synthesizer section influenced George Clinton and Parliament/Funkadelic as they developed the "P-Funk Mythology" in the mid-70s (albums like "Mothership Connection" and "The Clones of Dr. Funkenstein") - but them was crazy times with lots of experimentation, so it could just be synchronicity 🙂
Legend level info...! Kudos 🤜🏻
I absolutely love Chuck Ruff's drumming, it's effortless! There's a guy called Jason Nekrutman who teaches on drumeo, has a similar effortless style, if you like Chuck's drumming, you'll definitely love him...!
Check him out >

Watch Edgar and his brother Johnny Winter do Tobacco Road! Vocals will blow you away!
The Winter Bros were Phenomenal, wizards with their instruments! Johnny's gone but Edgar is still playing! Tobacco road is a must with his brother, Johnny. You'll like jumping down the rabbit hole of Edgar and Johnny Winter!😊
Multi-talented man is Edgar Winter. This is an instrumental song. If you want to hear Edgar's jaw-dropping vocals, listen to "Tobacco Road" (with his great blues guitarist brother, Johnny Winter).
This clip is from a UK late night TV show on BBC2 called " The Old Grey Whistle Test " which was virtually the only place you could see anything other than pop music in the early 70s . It's difficult to explain in 2023 just how mind blowing seeing someone playing keys on a strap round their neck was in 1973 . EWG was just one of many bands that were first showcased to the British public by this ( at the time ) groundbreaking show
Yea I remember watching this st the time. I was still at school. But was allowed to stay up & watch The OGWT. Whispering Bob Harris was my favourite presenter. I got to see EWG live at an all day festival in London. They were brilliant. Never saw anything like it before. Sly & the family stone were heading. Great day that.
Lots of good TOGWT on CZcams. All live playing.
The reason the title is Frankenstein is because it's several different tracks that Edgar had written. They put them together like Frankenstein was put together from different body parts! Love your reactions fellow Coloradan!
I think you would really enjoy "Tobacco Road" live. He did it with his brother Johnny and it is BLUES.
There's another version with brother Johnny on guitar that's even more mind blowing. Saw these guys live in Miami Beach about the same time. Yeah, they were tight. They were playing this live for huge crowds three or four nights a week for months at a time. That's just what you did back then.
Thanks for doing this one! Sometimes you take me back to my younger years. This was definitely one of those times.❤
Probably never heard of him before cause it was 50 years ago... He was BIG when I was in my 20's...
The crazy thing is when you hear it on the radio it sounds just like it.
You are the first reactor I have seen who figured out the reason for the name of the song1They stitched it together like a monster. But it was also a masterpiece! Great video, but you definite need to hear the studio version. Absolute magic for its time period!
Definitely do Tobacco Road live with his brother Johnny Winter. Edgar goes nuts singing and scatting. It's as jaw dropping as this!
OH THA MEMORIES! ❤️🔥🤘❤️🔥🤘❤️🔥🤘😏
Edgar Winter on December 28, 1946, in Beaumont, Texas. Both he and his older brother Johnny were born with albinism which meant they had to pretty stay indoors ALL THE TIME. being stuck inside, both brothers got into music and instruments. By the time Edgar left the family home, Winter had mastered numerous instruments and reading and writing music.
In late 1972, Winter brought together Dan Hartman, Ronnie Montrose and Chuck Ruff to form The Edgar Winter Group, who created such hits as the number one "Frankenstein" and "Free Ride" (with lead vocals by its writer Hartman).
The song's title Frankenstien, coined by the band's drummer Chuck Ruff, derives from the fact that the original recording of the song was much longer than the final version, as the band would often deviate from the arrangement into less structured jams. The track required numerous edits to shorten it. The end result was spliced together from many sections of recording. Winter frequently refers to the appropriateness of the name also in relation to its "monster-like, alumbering beat".
*Genre:* Instrumental rock, hard rock, progressive rock, art rock.
I love seeing ya get your mind blown by some of these older rock and country artists with the musicality....still dying to see ya experience more iron maiden and soon hopefully Dio or Rainbow specifically. You keep rockin.
I was thinking of checking out Dio Holy Diver. Cause i’ve never even heard of um
@@BlackPegasusRapsKillswitch Engage also does a song named Holy Diver if you haven’t checked that out yet!
One take. I actually saw them in concert back in the day. And they performed this flawlessly.
STILL one of my favorite JAMS of ALL TIME!! SO CREATIVE!! You should check out Tobacco Road with Edgar & Johnny Winters!! Pretty awesome!
That's Rick Derringer on guitar, SRV's bass player and I don't know who the drummer is, but he damn well rocks.
Tobacco Road with his fellow extremely talented Albino brother Johnny will TAKE YOU TO CHURCH! You’ve probably never seen white boys play like it before.
Four great musicians there. Rick Derringer on guitar. (Rick started with the McCoy's - Hang on Sloopy, when he was about 17), Rick played with Johnny Winter a blues phenom also. He also had a hit with Rock and Roll Hootchie Coo. Chuck Ruff on drums. Dan Hartman on bass. He had his own hit with I Can Dream About You. Edgar and his brother Johnny were both born Albino's. A one in several billion chance of that ever happening. Edgar had two groups. The Edgar Winter Group and White Trash. Both great bands. I highly recommend the White Trash double live Roadwork album.
Great job BP! This is one of what I call the big three of mind blowing live performances. Please check out “Inside Looking Out” (Live 1969) by Grand Funk Railroad and also “Hocus Pocus” (Live 1973 Midnight Special) by Focus. You will be blown away just like you were on this track !!!
The bass player, Dan Hartman, went on to have a massive disco hit with Instant Replay. Remember this is way before any form of digital
Edgard and his brother Johnny, incredible blues guitarist, are heroes of my youth,my life and probably just musical heroes : just do TOBACCO ROAD to meet the 2 brothers and the INCREDIBLE VOICE of Edgard !!
Frankenstein was released during my senior year of high school. It amazed me then and it still amazes me today. If you want to see Edgar Winter astonish you in another way react to the song "Tobacco Road" where Edgar played with his brother Johnny Winter. Edgar's vocals will shock you as much as his performance in this video shocked you. --- And in "Frankenstein" while Johnny Winter is astonishing you also have to give it up to Rick Derringer on guitar.
Omgosh THANK U 4 mentioning that it was Ricky D on guitar!! I saw this vid many times BUT just now I said HEY!?... wait a damn minute.... Is that R. D on guitar!?!? I enlarged n enlarged n said OMG I THINK IT IS! I was gonna look it up 2b sure after I left a comment. Read sum too. Then I saw YOURS U SPECIAL CREATURE!! BLESS U... IDK Y I got so excited? Maybe bcuz I hvnt hurd much about him lately. Not since the damn 70's!!! (I was blessed to grow up w/that awesome 🎶 music. In fact just an awesome TIME! Ty again.
Love n light 2u.. ❤
@@luvL3e - You're welcome. I was born in 1955 and first year of high school was 1969-1970, graduated high school the year Frankenstein came out, 1973. And yep tat was Mr. Rick "Rock and Roll, Hoochie Koo" Derringer on guitar. He did a lot of work with the two Winter brothers.
Edgar was the ren of the 70s as far as instruments go.
I was 'always' a fan of Herbie Hancock, & Billy Preston - but when these bro's came out with this cut, I was SOLD! 🤩😎
The Albino Brothers, Edgar and Johnny Winters were musical geniuses. This is early, PROG ROCK in the 70's A MUST WATCH is his brother, Johnny.
You have been initiated, lol. Next, try "Tobacco Road" where Edgar's brother Johnny sings, plays keyboard, with Edgar on guitar.
I always love it when you get to the part when Edgar picks up the drums, he is a master of almost all instruments! I call this Edgar music, I don't think it fits in any genre! I watched this months ago and didn't leave a comment, I couldn't resist leaving one this time, because I loved your reaction so much I had to come and see it again!
Edgar and his older Brother Johnny...... So much great music
I saw this in concert in 1975... one of the best songs in that concert was "Tobacco Road" and if you can get the live version, it will change your understanding of the group. The reason this song is named Frankenstein is because they said that it was a mish-mash of music, rhythm, and cadence put together to form the performance. This band is a mixture of rock, jazz, funk, R&B, and soul... Another stellar reaction for Black Pegasus! You da man!
Two words "Tobacco Road" live with Edgar & Johnny Winter.
the young man playing guitar is rick derringer who also had a solo career most notably "Rock and Roll hoochi coo
I look at the Edgar Winter Group like guys painting a room. The guitars and drummer are putting on the base coat, and Edgar comes in to paint the mural.
Listening to Frankenstein is a treat, and then to witness a master of sound deliver a performance to show every aspect of his vision of the song.
Who on earth would not be amazed after watching this?
That was Rick Derringer on the guitar! He’s a beast.
Oh HECK yes!!! One of my favorites, so happy to see it on the channel. If you want to hear some CRAZY good singing, check out Edgar Winters Group "Tabacco Road". These boys have WAY more Funk and Soul in them than they look like they should :)
Wow what an interesting comparison you threw out there at the end about comparing to loop stations. You're not too far off, in that there is hands-on, live sound manipulation occurring at real time. Edgar Winter is actually "playing" an ARP 2600 synthesizer. Although general rules in loop station battles specifically prohibit keyboards, if you substitute the keyboard with a beatboxer, you're certainly in the same universe. Nice tie-in there, BP.
Edgar was talented and played Southern Rock/Jazz/Pop/Blues Rock call it whatever you want. My brother put his headphones on me in 1973 when I was 14 and cranked it.
YOU REALLY NEED TO HEAR " TOBACCO ROAD LIVE " FROM JOHNNY AND EDGAR WINTERS.
THE SONG AND PLAYERS ARE PHEANOMINAL
Edgar is from Beaumont, TX and plays many instruments as well as sings. Bob Hartman is the bass player, Rick Derringer on guitar Chuck Ruff on drums, Edgar everything else! Great talent !
This is considered Classic Rock and it is just that. True musicians and musicianship going on with the genius Edgar Winters. I see that so many people have described the awesomeness of the Winters brothers so I'll just leave it at that. Check out all their music, just brilliant.
His album "SHOCK TREATMENT" , with "Frankenstein" was one of the first LPs I ever bought. A. M. A. Z. I. N. G.
Dude welcome to 1960's and 1970's.
I'm a dedicated rocker from that time and space however it was ALL good back in the day.
Top 40,Rhythm&Blues..R/B,and of course Rock n Roll.
Truely an magical time for music.
Bro I promise you will never see anything like this again. It’s a once in a lifetime.
Love Frankenstein 🔥 The guitar player in tan is Rick Derringer and he made a song with Edgar " Rock and Roll Hoochie Koo " ☮️
Also well known at Ohio State Buckeyes games for Hang on Sloopy. Saw him and Johnny Winter perform together back in the day. Straight up guitar fire!
Definitely check out Tobacco Toad live !! React too…. You’ll enjoy it…. Wait until you hear him SING!
You have to check out Edgar and Johnny Winter doing tobacco road. Edgar sings in that one. It'll blow your mind.
Edgar and his brother Johnny were from Beaumont TX, I went to high school with them. Edgar was ask one time what instruments he played, his answer was “Yes” 16:50
Pretty sure their biggest hit was “Free Ride” written and sung by the late Dan Hartman. It was a staple in the 70s. I love Edgar to bits. The guitarist was Rick Derringer, player and producer.
Yo brother im 65 year's young. Proud to grow up in an era of music i call music from the God's. Im called Jerry jukebox so my taste for the real shit is all over the map. But i can tell you Johnny and Edgar winter were both on another level of talent. You want to here unbelievable raw live albums? Check out Edgar winter white trash (road work) Will blow you into the next century my man. I believe live at the Apollo in Harlem. A horn section that is unmatched! You want funk?Also Johnny winter (captured live) Unbelievable hardcore blue's/rock and roll guitar work. You will sweat listening to his licks and slide guitar man! Jaw dropping. Also you want a real treat? Johnny played and recorded with the father of the blues mr.muddy mississippi waters. Go on CZcams and put in muddy waters live at my father's place in roslyn NY with special guest Johnny Winter. Best blues show you will hear. A highlight of my life my friend. I was there. March of 1979. Live on the radio that was wlir. Radio stations use to do this king biscuit flower hour. Live show's being broadcasted. Mind blowing shit. I have said this many times. There isn't enough money on the planet to make me be 20 today and when i was 20. No chance man! I love being older and what i grew up on is priceless. Can't be bought. I'm only giving you a grain of sand of my experience and the talent. But take my advice and listen to my suggestions. Sorry brother but most music today has lost it's edge and soul. All corporate manipulation. Just not good for the head. Very little is interesting. As far as Frankenstein im sure you looked into it. It was a huge hit on am radio!! Can you dig that? Great thing of what you do and also CZcams is your opening younger people minds to music they had no idea existed and to explore it.Creates a new fan base and expands the mind. Too much music today is corrupting the mind. I wish everyone a great life. Enjoy it man it's precious. ✌️
the music of my high school years, the 70s the greatest decade of music ever
He's still going strong! Just won a Grammy in 2022
Thank you for bringing back this music. It brings me back to my teens and the flood of memory's that go with it. Your commentary is great and shows there is not as much difference between age groups as people may think. God Bless...
Edgars brother, Johnny, was the first non-African American inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame.
This is a live performance in Great Britain on a TV show called the old grey Whistle Stop
It's a Keytar. Edgar Winter played the sax solo on Tina Turner's "Simply the Best" studio recording.
Now you need to listen to him and his brother on Tabaco Road.
I cracked up at your reaction. 😂 I was a 7th grader when this song came out--and yes, it was a hit on the radio, blowing everyone's minds back in 1973. It's funny you reacted to this band now, because earlier today I saw that he was doing a concert or concerts with Ringo Starr (maybe as part of the All Starr Band?). So yes, he's still performing!
I just saw Edgar winner playing with Ringo Starr in central California a couple of months ago. Still killing it.
Yes. There are several very worthwhile rabbit holes you can explore. Many many great bands. You should go.
Yeah, this is LIVE, This is what musical talent is. NO AUTOTUNE>>> just live..
Husband loved this. He had this album called Entrance when he was 13, big fan.
Edger was very popular here in Baltimore when we were young! The studio version is very clean, it came out on “four channel LP version” back when! Thanks
In case you didn't know and no one told you, Edgar Winter is the one on the keyboards and sax
I love how you are wondering all over the musical place . Great reaction.
"Tobacco Road" with both Johnny and Edgar is a must see.
Hes also great singer tobacco roadside with his brother shows his skills
I'm rhinking at 6 min into it, wait til he gets on the drums too. The guy's a mad genius
I had this 8 track. They only come out at night
Fun fact, Edgar Winter played the Sax on a Tina Turner track named "Simply the best"
Johnny Winters is awesome blues - rock guitarist
If you listen to your local rock station you'll here the studio version every once in a while but you'll especially hear it around Halloween time.
this was mainstream on the radio back in '73 - '74 and lingered around until the early 80s, always enjoyed hearing it....the radio version wasn't this long tho.
Edgar Winter and his brother Johnny Winter (who's not in this band) grew up in Texas. They are albinos. So they couldn't go outside in the hot Texas sun. So they stayed inside and taught themselves to play every instrument they could get their hands on. When they were still teenagers, their mom took them to New Orleans to see BB King. While they were there she asked BB if her boys could jam with him. They showed him there credentials so BB said sure. BB King was very impressed. You should watch "Tobacco Road" which has both of them.
Tobacco Road!!! Best one in my opinion!!
You gotta check out the Winter Brothers on Tobacco Road!!! 🙏🇺🇲✌️😎
Love ya!! :) ♥
I believe Edgar Winter no s was the 1st artist to strap a keyboard around his neck, it looks kinda home made and I'm pretty sure this was a few years before the keytar, maybe the inspiration for the keytar
Edgar on the Key-tar! And everything else!
Little known fact: Edgar Witnter also filmed this 🤣
😂 who woulda thunk? 😂😂
FYI One of the best rock guitarists, as well as producers, Rick Derringer playing, named it Frankenstein because he did so much editing. Both Rick and Edgar have toured with Ringo's Allstars over the years. I think Edgar is on tour with Ringo for a few shows this year. The Winter brothers are from Texas. There's a live video of Rick doing his hit Rock and Roll Hootchie Koo that is beyond description, I'll post the link. Rick's first band the McCoys had the hit with the much loved Hang On Sloopy.
Brace yourself for this. I promise it's worth watching until the end czcams.com/video/MyRwsnbqN6Y/video.html
I've seen others comment that you need to listen to Edgar's version of "Tobacco Road." I'm here to say that indeed you do. His singing will have you falling out of your chair. Really.
This song was originally titled "The Double Drum Song"
In the 80's Frankenstien was our favorite song to play in the pep band at highschool BB games.
I believe this is the first or only rock song to reach #1 on the Billboard Chart.
I bought this album (They Only Come Out at Night) when it first came out. I was 10 years old and _HAD_ to have the uncut album version, not the edited for radio version. It remains my all-time favorite song to this day. (I'm 60 now). Btw,if you thought this song was amazing, you _GOTTA_ hear "Hocus Pocus"by Focus. It's also an instrumental. There are vocals in it, just no lyrics. Seriously.You gotta see and hear it . Do the studio version first, then do the live version from "The Midnight Special".🤯👈 You;ll be like that.
When this came out I saw Edgar and Blue Oyster Cult awesome concert.
Maybe the best live performance ever recorded...In the basement..Frankenstein's Lab..
Of note. The guitarist (Rick Derringer (Rock n Roll Hoochie Koo) ) was the producer but filled in for Ronnie Montrose who was "sick" that day....
Astonishing fuc*n talent here....
Cheers! 🍄🌲✨💥🍄🌲🌈🌈
Your reaction is awesome!
