Not quite feeling like playing any games at the moment so I'm listening to Johnny Winter: Captured Live, a six song live album.
Johnny was an absolutely fantastic guitarist and a great singer, a blues based rocker, at one point he was considered to be THE next biggest rock icon and was given the largest (at the time) advance for a musician, six hundred thousand bucks. Despite being pegged as a future rock superstar, Johnny actually loved the blues more than rock and it wasn't really close, but it paid the bills, even if he publicly never loved rock. At one concert in the 70s or 80s he changed one song's line to something like "Rock and roll is a *bleeping* drag!".
Captured Live (from 1976) shows Johnny at the top of his rock phase, two of the songs devolve into ten minute plus classic rock guitar jam territory and let me tell you, Johnny could shred just as well as (if not better than) Dimebag Darrell or any other "shred superstar" of "modern" times. Highway 61 Revisited is the highlight to me, but it's all great high energy rock.
As a side note, Johnny had a brother that was also a big name musician, Edgar Winter of the Edgar Winter Group, who had a few hits like Frankenstein and Free Ride.

3__3 .... [extremely sleepy]
How are you doing ?...
**Weak hugs with delicious awakening black magic potion**
-passes over the extra-extra-extra large coffee mug since we don't need you falling asleep in the wading pool-
Can't complain too much here. Hands have kinda stopped working after 9 hours of video games, but I can still type with my nose so it's okay.
How are you doing today besides wanting to go back to bed?

*edit* on a side note, taking the wife to the doctor tomorrow for her third and final injection to her knee. Not a fun experience for her. That's going to suck. Then there's the youngest daughter wuth her badly sprained ankle doing some physio. *sigh* Maybe I need to buy some games to cheer me up...
I'm glad I manage to stay away of that shiny tempting Humble site... :)
