When I was young and just starting to play, I was obsessed with Johnny Winter’s blues rock soloing prowess.
Fast forward to right now - 2019 - his brother Edgar Winter is coming over to my studio and having me record guitar parts on a Johnny Winter tribute record !!!!
Here’s the story, and a free CZcams lesson on soloing in the style of Johnny

" Be careful with a fool " possibly the best blues rock song ever! Love Johnny Winter! Thanks Tim!

“possibly” hell. I think it’s the best song ever recorded. Pure, raw, unreal clean and emotional. I’m thrilled to hear you say it though. Not enough people know of his genius.
A gift from God. The Picasso of guitar playing
I've worn out more copies of Johnny Winter And than I can remember. I've owned more Firebirds than any other guitar. I've played professionally 50 years and Johnny is still required listening every day
Best Comment Award...
@THOMAS COSSETTE oof but at least SRV didnt get drunk on stage and sound trash
It was Johnny Winter And live for me.
@@andrestevens930 Johnny either
I played guitar with Edgar for a bunch of shows in the mid ‘80s, which was a joy. He’s a true genius and a sweetheart of a guy, and his songs are so fun to play!
Wow, quite a history you have. That must have been an amazing experience.
Johnny Winter is an okay guitarist I guess... I mean I only started listening to him in '69 and have only seen him live 50 times. Hell I never drove more than three days to see him play. It's not like I have his entire discography... I don't own the one talked about here...yet. Okay, so I have one of his guitars but that's only because he gave it to me, it's not like I went out and bought the darn thing. Yeah, one of the walls in my music room is covered in Johnny Winter concert posters and memorabilia, but hey, what was I supposed to do? That wall looked empty and dull. That lady in Hollywood who sells rare and hard to find posters keeps selling JW stuff to me so I have to put it somewhere and the Rory Gallagher wall was taken. Sure he is always in my iPod... what am I supposed to do... listen to other Blues guitarists all day?
🤙Johnny is the 🐐
Memory pain. I spent 6 months of continuous practice. I ran my old lady off
I saw Johnny Winter live at The Shaboo in Mansfield, Connecticut back in 1978. Unbelievable performance. Blew the doors off a packed house.
@@TomKaszuba I saw him the year before he passed away... I was excited because I was taking my brother and his friend to see JW for their first time. I had talked him up for months and played them several JW albums, then took them both to see him.
When they announced him I was all jacked-up and excited... then he came out with s shuffling step, hand on a guys shoulder, being led to the stage. The guy took JW's hand off his shoulder, then went to set up his little chair. While he was doing this JW looked confused and started to walk off stage, but his guide got him and helped to his chair, then took up his guitar off the stand. I was sad thinking that this was going to be my bro's first Johnny Winter experience. and then the guy put that guitar in Johnny's hands... and for the next hour+ my brother and his friend had their ears pierced and the thier minds blown.
I knew Johnny in the 70s and had seen him at his worst, so I should have known he was going to shine! I had tickets to go see him when he died.... that was a sad freakin' day for me.
Part of history, not perfect, but his rareness, plus he had big hits for him
Johnny was a monster!
I get chills just remembering the first time I heard Johnny back in 1968.
Johnny Winter is part of Every Guitar Players DNA... Loved seeing him MANY times!
Hi Tim. I am a Leelion who is a music producer in Korea. Today, the record of a musician named Shin Hae-cheol, who became a deceased person now in Korea, was released. He is a hero to me. I saw your name in the album credits. I am so happy to hear the music of two musicians whom I admire so much. Thank you for participating in this album.
Johnny Winter "captured live"...one great live record...
Johnny Winter, Jimi Hendrix and Leslie West are my main influences growing up. Johnny was a unique guitar player for his time. He used a thumb pick and was a hard core Blues Guitarist that rocked the house. No one plays or sounds anything like Johnny. Jimi liked Johnny's guitar playing so much he would some times play bass when they jammed. Jimi also played bass on his early recordings. I don't think most people realize how good Johnny really was. I do. He was a killer guitar player!
That's a solid 3 guitarists right there! Not to mention all 3 were great singers too
One of the coolest aspects of soloing over one chord is the freedom. As long as you know how to come back inside, you can get very interesting sounds by going outside of the harmony.
That "Johnny Winter And" album rocks like bloody hell. Johnny and Rick Derringer just tear it up. Yeah, I wore it out, too. :)
Johnny and Edgar's Roadwork Live is one of the greatest albums ever.
Rick Derringer guitar on Back in the USA one of the best pieces of guitar work ever.
The Roadwork live album version of Johnny Winter playing Rock 'N Roll Hootcie Koo was one of the most influential solos embedded in my guitar DNA. Enjoyed this video! Thanks, Tim.
Him and Derringer did my dna in too ....great video boss
I learned to play guitar listening to "Still Alive And Well" by Johnny Winter. Wore several copies of that album out. Always preferred "Captured Live to "Johnny Winter And". Johnny's slide solo on the live version of "Highway 61 Revisited" from "Captured Live" is epic. Probably the greatest rock slide guitar performance ever.

No probably about it. The best
I still have Captured Live on vinyl. Great album.
I had the experience of not hearing Johnny Winter And for decades and think "Wow! That's where I get my blues licks!"
Listened to it a bunch when I was a teenager. Lent out forever.
Thanks for your videos. You're like a tasteful guitar teacher for people that are already pretty good.
That album knocked me out when i heard it. i thought "jimmy WHO?". i was young and had never heard anything like it. it put the guitar in my hands. what i loved about him was he was flat out balls to the wall. just goddamn go for it. nothing less, but somehow it seemed without ego; just soaring.
I have always LOVED Epic Rock instrumentals like ELO's Fire On High, Elton Johns Funeral For A Friend, and Kansas's Magnum Opus, but for me the ultimate is Edgar Winter's Frankenstein, sonically amazing and unbeatable, and the genius Riffs never stop coming. Edgar and his band mates created a Masterpiece! Please let Edgar know that Jim Hawthorne LOVES him, and Frankenstein will always be my favorite of all time. Edgar.... you Genius!
I love that album and almost wore it out, and years I got the CD so I could still listen
Giddy as a kid meeting his guitar hero....AWESOME!!! Johnny Winter is a Monster on guitar
Just heard a song from the JW And... live album this morning by way of my portable music player while on a dog walk. Johnny B. Good, specifically. Yep, you aren't the only one out there still listening to JW and Rick Derringer after all these years. That said, I might as well drop this story about you here: My neighbor is from a well known Hollywood family who often participates in various charity events in L.A. and Palm Springs. Recently after one such event in Palm Springs he made mention that he did a live comedy bit on stage in front of a crowd. The bit was him singing along to the Sinatra song, Something Stupid, duet style with someone singing Nancy Sinatra's part. He showed me the video on his phone. I asked who his singing partner was. "Oh, she's married to the long time guitarist of Rick Springf... and before he could finish his name, I said, "Tim Pierce." He looked at me stunned. "How could you possibly know that?" I had to remind him I know a thing or two about musicians. ;)
LOVE that whole (side and a half) record Second Winter! Edgars solo on Miss Ann still KILLS me! And Johnny is one of my all time favorite singers. Guit, rhy and solo, too.
Good job, Mr. Tim!
SWEET JESUS....this guy......holy moly....so effortlessly....everything....good grief.
Tim, I love watching you doing what you love....
When you mentioned Johnny Winter And Live, my arm hairs stood up! I used to be able to drop the needle on that album in my head and listen to it without the record. Finest live album for rock guitar players.
Johnny and Edgar winter are great.
When you say Edger Winter my brain says "Easy Street" ! What an absolute GAS it must be to see the Edger machine live and in personal... Thanx Tim, and thanx for all your vids. You help keep me enthusiasm up and tickin'.. cheers
Well this will be something to look forward to. Rock on!
love the Johnny Winter And Album. I grew up with it.
What a perfect video for my Saturday night... Edgar Winter's Roadwork is still one of my all time fav albums !
TIM, THANKS FOR COVERING MR. WINTER, A GREAT GUITARIST THAT NEVER GOT THE RECOGNITION HE DESERVED, WHEN I BOUGHT HIS FIRST ALBUM, '' THE PROGRESSIVE BLUES EXPERIMENT '', I COULD NOT BELIEVE WHAT I HEARD, I STILL THINK THIS WAS HIS BEST ALBUM, COUSIN FIGEL
Thanks so much
I've recently discovered Johnny Winter. Heard of him all my life, but only lately realized how much i like his playing. What a guy, he never gets boring. I'm buying a Firebird this week ;) Thanks for your vid
Mahalo TIm!!! I saw Johnny a few years ago...I was literally five feet from him, at a small venue in Honolulu. I still get chicken skin thinking about it.
Tim, just want to say thank you for your generosity in sharing your skills.
Captured live . Best ever
I`m so happy that a legend like you, gave those credits to Johnny. He was (and still is) one of my heroes. And those licks are so precious. And well played, ofcourse. Thank you!
Watch so many “seen it already” guitar videos on a lazy Sunday. Then this, so different and unique. Brilliant Tim! Bravo!
Cool video Tim. I was fortunate enough to grow up down Interstate 10 not too far from Johnny and Edgar Winter. Edgar Winter is not only a great musician, he is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet, he has a heart of gold. 👍👏🎸😎✌️🇺🇸
Johnny was my favorite-saw him several times in Detroit. Great 3 sided album. Did see Edgar in ‘73 at Eastern Michigan University. He played Frankenstein; was amazed when he set his keyboard down on the stage and it kept playing and he stepped back and played the drums.
That's so awesome! Glad you are getting to do the album.
Great to hear the love for Johnny and Edgar. Roadwork is such an amazing record.
That look at :44 It's the look of slaying it. I love that feeling!
Tim you always look like you are having a blast. Rock on
Me too tim johnny was the first blues gutarist i became facinated with...altho ive yet to acomplish what you have....nothing but respect for you and Johnny
Awesome lesson!! Johnny winter is at the top of my guitar heroes list! Thank you!
Im on it!!
I am a 62 year old working muscian myself..i love your johnny winter lead guitar style..WOW.
I owned a sound company in virginia beach for many years..and i love johnny winter..and had the chance to see him twice and got to meet him on 2 occasions in the 90s..i had the chance to see edgar at jewish mother in virginia beach back in the 90s but i was booked that night to do sound for POD...there will never be another blues man like johnny..in my opinion he was the best blues guitar player singer there EVER WAS OR IS..PERIOD!!
The album Johnny Winter And sustained me through my youth and early adulthood !
Absolutely love that intro lead! Been listening to it over and over.
Such an under-appreciated master of ROCK AND BLUES...Johnny Winter. I listened to the great Still Alive and Well LP one hundred thousand times as a teenager!!!! And of course, dreamed of owning a Gibson Firebird!
My father burned Johnny and Edgar into my brain as a child, is definitely part of my musical DNA as well!
I’m looking forward to hearing the finished album.
I had Johnny Winter And live, which I bought after seeing them at Howard Steins in Portchester and I saw Edgar Winter with Ricky Derringer in Westport about a year after.
Huge Johnny Winter fan especially Johnny Winter &
Tim, Tim, Tim...I love your stuff. The master class is a great help for my slow self. Thanks.
Johnny. I too fell in love with the And Live album as a young player. Great stuff.
Great to see you touching on johnny.. my first concert..and one of the greats.. thanks
Tim ... great show ... I too was rippin it up on Johnny Winter as a teen ... my first favorite blues record was actually the 8 track 'Johnny Winter' released 1969 which I played till the tape was stretched and the wheel started to squeek ... My eldest brother was a great collector of music back then and everything I was doing was by ear ... just playing those records over and over listening for every twist and turn ... great memories
Omygarsh...Tims at it again.Has a homing device for great musicians..
Oh Tim youre up there with the greats...
Wow... amazing to be hosting the Great Edgar Winter... hope enjoyed every minute it Tim, you certainly deserve the honor
I love the phrase "guitar dignitaries." That Tim Pierce has great phrasing! Great video. I love that explorer.
It's not an Explorer. It's a Firebird.
love johnny and edgar grew up learning that music great video ur great tim pierce glad i found ur channel
Outstanding love Johnny Winter and Time Pierce both great guitar players
Thanks Tim. I saw Johnny at the IRON HORSE in Northampton, Massachusetts back in the day. One of my favorite guitarists EVER!!
I really enjoy your channel Tim, thanks for all the great help!!
THANKS for sharing Tim... you are Right
LOve the Winters!!! Sweet axe!! You Rock!! Tim!
Love Johnny Winter stuff. Cool!
Hot white and blue a superb album from johnny. Killer blues harp on that one.
Great video Tim! JW is THE MAN!! One of my all-time favorites.
Tim, you are too humble. You are a guitar star!
Many Thanks Tim. I love Johnny Winter. I saw him live several times and eventually got to hang out with him and visit for a while. I also love the feeling and sound of the neck through Firebird. I also play a 61 Les Paul SG reissue. I really appreciate your help and lessons. Many Thanks Brother. MLLH&R
Johnny Winter captured live is also great, I was in the audience..
I think it's the best live album ever, even better than UFO's Strangers in the Night. Highway 61 Revisited is superb!
very cool story about the guitar too!
Tim, your just bad ass! you capture the great Johnny Winter to a T.
Perseverance. Dreams come true.
Oh so nice!!
Yeah, that Johnny Winter was one of those next level players
Glad to see Johnny getting his props. Listened to him more than about anyone growing up. Also loved the early Johnny/Edgar stuff on Before the Storm.
awesome job!! ...killer playing Tim thanks..keep on rockin!!
I’m a guitar player from Texas and love Johnny Winter and also listened to his live and recorded music as I was learning to play. I like your DNA analogy. Isn’t it cool how we are all connected in so many ways. How we share each other’s energy and molecules. Nice vid. Btw, I was in the middle of my lesson withJeff McErlain when you called him Monday. Another example of 6 degrees of separation or something.
I can't wait!!! This is a dream come true. Ronnie Montrose was one of my FAVORITE guitar players, ie Voyager - Town Without Pity really show his shine! And then you mention Doug Rappaport (? spell) who is my favorite modern day guitarist/composer! Just listen to his compositions that he makes for his product demos. Just magnificent compositions and executions. Everyone is different and insane. I love that guy! Love the Mini Humbuckers - so much, that back in '71 or '72 I bought a LP Deluxe with mini's and I just love love it. It crunches but also gets real sweet when you need it. Would love to see your session(s) with Edgar, so the question is - are you gonna video and post it? Carry on with your great work! Alp
Saw Johnny in Minneapolis in 1970 with J Geils as the opener. The stage was only about two feet high and we sat about 6 feet from it. He was phenomenal!
Firebird!!! Bought it!!! Nice, Tim. Thanks for the awesome history and playing lesson. Can't wait for that album to come out. Cheers!
What a nice sounding firebird! Great looks too!
How Johnny isn’t in the rock and roll hall of fame I have no idea. For an organization that claims to honor rock and roll they have truly messed up on this one. We need to start a movement to get Johnny in!
Tim that hit me right in my heart!!!!!!!!
Awesome!!!
Hockey legend Ken Dryden once wrote, "the best hockey player ever is the one you watched when you were 12 years old". Same is true for guitar players, I think.
Thats how old i was too lol ken dryden was an amazing goaltender....as johnny was on guitar....totally agree
True north strong n free!
@@imannonymous7707 I remember seeing Johnny on the cover of Rolling Stone back when it was a black white magazine. It read a White man plays the Black man's blues and Johnny was definitely White:)
That was fun to watch! Thanks for the lesson.
Thank you for sharing this history as it happens....!!!!!
Fantastic tutorial on one of my favourite guitarists Tim, and happy to hear that Edgar got you in on the Brother Johnny album. It's a great album.
Love that guitar, I had a Les Paul delux with the mini humbler back in the eighty’s, it was awesome. 😊
Johnny was the best I ever saw! He had his own style.....
Wow! Tim, this is an Amazing video!! Working with your heroes! Congratulations to all of your hard work that’s brought you here! I remember seeing Johnny Winter as a kid in England, truly incredible experience!!
I watched the intro three times already!! Amazing!
Warren thanks so much! that means a lot
You are the man@@timpierceguitar! Such fluidity! Unparalleled!
@@timpierceguitar Great vid, man! I've heard the headstocks on those Firebirds are super fragile though. When you doinked it on the table I tensed up a little, haha!
Don't know why Tim, but this one just seemed to be one of my favorites. Your enthusiasm is inspiring. Keep it up. 🙏
I feel like you and I both and a whole lot of other musicians get that satisfaction out of something you play but not all of us show it on our faces like that I love it!!! Music is so special you use your ears but ignites a fire in all our senses at the same time
Bob Campbell ils ne veulent rien ne
Wow wow , stunning solo and a beaut of a guitar
Great right hand technique at approximately 0:15 Tim. Thank you. The Winter brothers are great musicians. I saw and met them with their group 'Black Plague'. RIP Johnny.
I found that album in my older brothers record collection. Fantastic' Great job on everything Tim.
Wonderful guitar and solo.
