Music reviews of Captured Live
Music Review: Nothin' to Get the Blues ABout
Rating: 5 Stars
Johnny Winter has turned his back on rock-n-roll. All he plays live and all he has recorded for the past 20-something years has been traditional blues based. Like many other guitar greats of his period,( Clapton,Page etc) Johnny Winter may feel it is the ultimate homage and tribute to the black blues masters of the Delta to keep to strict blues form nowadays instead of the mutated white boy hybrid that 60's and 70's rockers Cream, Led Zeppelin made their bones on. Don't misunderstand. There are blues on this excellent live album, "Sweet Papa John" being the most distinctive. But as for balls out, boogie rock with a Southern but never lazy bent, "Captured Live" is a fine if not the BEST example of this basically extinct genre.I love the blues, but I can't believe any artist would turn his back on something as great as this..
"Roll With Me" is a thumping rocker, with great interplay between Winter and guitarist Floyd Radford."All Over Now" is an adrenaline pumped update of a good but not exceptional Stones cover, with great leads and a tempo that is a huge improvement to the original. The standout piece for me is Mr.Winters absolutely blistering rendition of Bob Dylans "Highway 61 Revisited". Gone is Dylan's mumbling vocal and the toy sounds that accented the original. Johnny Winter's "Highway" is one of the most dexterous excercises in guitar mastery ever complimented by a rhythym section so tight, it's almost unhuman. Johnny's slide work is incredible on this number. Winter pushes his guitar licks to lengthy (but melodic) excess, but is quick to add creative changes that make a very long song not so long. If you ever have a 15 minute car ride on the highway you'd like to do in around 10- this is the song for that ride. Brilliant fretplay and nice cohesion with Floyd Radord's equally deft guitar work- it don't get no better than this!
