Caught him many a time back in the day.
He enjoyed his life. Made a lot of people happy.
Switzerland. That's a long way from Texas.

Back in the early 70s when I met my gf (later to be wife) her record collection consisted of Simon and Garfunkel and similar folky stuff, plus Johnny Winter "Saints and Sinners"!
Not that I have anything against S&G (in moderation) but Saints and Sinners certainly got a lot of turntable time when I was round at her place.

R.I.P. Johnny
I had a chance to go see him last year but passed on going since the show was in a part of Philadelphia where I was not familiar with the area. Now, I wish I would have gone.

We grew up in the same area of Southeast Texas. My aunt who was involved with the musicians union in Orange, Texas, had a piece of notebook paper on the bulletin board in her office that he wrote on - "Guitar player needs work. Johnny Winter - (home phone)". I wanted to get it after she passed away, but they cleared out her house before I could get to it. Sorry to see him go.
