Live Bootleg Series, Vol. 2

In March of 2008, definitive rock and blues grooves truly ignite once again with the much anticipated release of Johnny Winter's Live Bootleg Series, Vol. 2. As a second installment from the highly successful, artist approved Live Bootleg Series (Volume One charted at #15 in Billboard Magazine Blues Album chart), this disc features six extensive, three decade old performances from the Johnny Winter archives. This time around, Johnny thematically chose some of his favorite blues songs from artists like B.B. King, Robert Johnson, Willie Brown, and Jimi Hendrix to make up the bulk of the six rockin' performances that develops this new Live Bootleg Series Volume Two line-up. Several of these tracks include the lengthy blues workout of Willie Brown's "Mississippi Blues", the hard rockin' Robert Johnson favorite "Crossroads" and Jimi Hendrix's classic "Red House", making some of these rare recordings their first appearances as authorized Johnny Winter recordings. As an added feature, classic photos from his late 70's period truly add to the vibe of the entire package, which house some of the heaviest guitar licks to ever be unleashed or waxed by this legendary guitarist.
