The great Johnny Winter has been the subject of several episodes of Elwood’s BluesMobile. The audio here contains interviews with Mr. Winter (as recently as January 2014) as well as with his biographer, Mary Lou Sullivan. Mr. WInter’s early recording “Progressive Blues Experiment” set the stage for much of the sounds to come. Since then, he has been on the forefront of modern American music. Dan Aykroyd’s involvement with Mr. Winter dates back to the 1970’s. He will be sorely missed.
