Product Description
Edgar Winter was born December 28, 1946 in Beaumont, Texas, brother of legendary blues guitarist Johnny Winter. After cutting his teeth in Texas night clubs, Edgar released his debut album Entrance in 1970, quickly followed by classics such as They Only Come Out At Night, (featuring the hits Frankenstein & Free Ride, both of which are re-worked on Jazzin' the Blues), the live record Roadwork (1972), the rock opus Standing On Rock (1981), The Real Deal (1996) and of course Winter Blues (1999). In the eighties Edgar played with various artists, including the likes of Todd Rundgren, Meat Loaf and Tina Turner.
As with Winter Blues, Edgar invited high quality guests to record Jazzin` The Blues: guitarists Steve Lukather (Toto) and Hiram Bullock, bass player Will Lee, drummers Gregg Bissonette and Rick Latham and trumpeter Lee Thornburg. Together they present an exciting voyage through the different spheres of jazz and blues, including master songwriting and creative soloing. With Jazzin` The Blues, Edgar Winter shows his ability to combine the past with the present without sounding muddled or pretentious while at the same time delivering exciting elements of new music.
