The Johnny Winter Story

Johnny and Edgar Winter Together Tour 1976

Johnny Winter tours with Edgar Winter, Rick Derringer, Randy Jo Hobbs, Richard Hughes, Dan Hartman, Floyd Radford and Chuck Ruff.

Johnny Winter opens for April Wine in Montreal, to promote the Raisin Cain album. Johnny Winter did have a major ovation after his 45 minutes set. People booed when the light came back. People kept asking for him even when April Wine started their part. Johnny Winter was back in Montreal after a long wait (many years) and people came to the show to see him, not April Wine.

San Diego Johnny Winter's band opens for Blue Oyster Cult and headliner Z.Z.Top. The huge crowd's enthusiastic response to Johnny's set was incredible. Blue Oyster Cult followed...but the crowd, still riding high off Winter's set, did not react with the same enthusiasm - only perking up during BOC's then current hit song "Don't Fear The Reaper". Headliner Z.Z.Top had an elaborate theatrical show with all kinds of animals onstage as props, but was just worlds away musically from the powerful set heard earlier from Winter's band. Johnny owned the day. Floyd Radford was on 2nd guitar in Winter's band.
