Johnny Winter DVD & Bobblehead Coming Soon Page 1 of 1 Blues Share Print Johnny Winter DVD & Bobblehead Free Blues Newsletter! Coming Soon Enter email address Sign Up Reverend Keith A. Gordon By , About.com Guide June 27, 2011 Discuss in my forum Ten years after his ground-breaking, critically-acclaimed debut album, guitarist Johnny Winter and his three-piece band climbed on a stage in Essen, Germany to perform for the popular German TV series Rockpalast . Touring in support of his 1978 album White, Hot & Blue , Winter led his band through a scorching set of blues standards that thrilled the German audience. On July 26, 2011 our good friends at MVD will be releasing Winter's Live At Rockpalast 1979 DVD, a documentary of that red- hot night in Germany. Winter and crew perform such beloved blues tunes as Junior Wells ' "Messin' With The Kid," Freddie King 's guitar workout "Hideaway," Jimmy Rogers ' classic "Walkin' By Myself," and such rock 'n' roll gems as Dale Hawkin's "Susie Q" and the Rolling Stones ' "Jumpin' Jack Frost." The highlight of Winter's Live At Rockpalast 1979 is the bluesman's 17 -minute jam on Willie Brown's "Mississippi Blues." As they say on late-night TV commercials, "that's not all!" On the same day, Winter becomes the first artist to be honored as part of the "Guitar Gods bobblehead series with the release of his very own limited edition bobblehead figure. Displayed in a window box and limited to 1,500 figures, the 7" poly- resin figure features the signature bobblehead as well as a moving arm; push a button and Johnny screams "rock 'n' roll!" Holding his guitar and topped with his familiar black hat, this Johnny Winter figure would look great standing guard by your stereo. Check with your local music dealer for the live DVD, cruise over to the See of Sound website to order your Johnny bobblehead!

Blues Tour De Forst
| 1 Monday, June 22, 2020 Blues Tour de Forst It’s June 2008. Tom Forst, a regional vice president at Cox Communications Group, is about to walk away from 25 years as a corporate suit to chase a lifelong passion. The dream to be a full-time musician had been on hold since his post-college touring days, circa 1974. It’s June 2008. Tom Forst, a regional vice president at Cox Communications Group, is about to walk away from 25 years as a corporate suit to chase a lifelong passion. The dream to be a full-time musician had been on hold since his post-college touring days, circa 1974. He recalls the exact moment his life changed course. “My wife was sitting in the living room. She pays the bills, and she said, ‘Look at that, I’m paying our last two $30,000 college tuition bills for our last two kids.’ I looked at her and said, ‘I’m going to quit.’” “My wife simply said, ‘Go ahead,’ and that’s kind of the way she is. Her attitude was, what’s the worst that can happen?” She only wanted assurances they wouldn’t starve. © 2021 CAPTRUST Financial Advisors Blues Tour de Forst | 1 | 2 So Forst, then 57, gave his six-month notice at Cox Communications. At the end of that year, he stepped away from legions of direct reports, the jet-setting lifestyle, power, prestige, and pay. Big pay. What followed is a wild ride of a second act—from boardroom to bandstand, Forst was on his way to be a successful indie blues musician.

CNHI Woodstock 20190814
A half-century later, the mother of all music festivals still resonates ifty years after the fact, it still resonates with us. Tucked up in the Catskill Mountains, the Woodstock Music & Art Fair — promoted as “An Aquarian Exposition, Three Days of Peace and Music,” but known to one and all as simply Woodstock — took place in 1969 over three-plus days. From Friday, Aug. 15, through the morning of Monday, Aug. 18, dairy farmer Max Yasgur’s 600- acre parcel of land in Bethel, New York — forever immortalized in Joni Mitchell’s “Woodstock” (ironically, she wasn’t at the event itself) — became the epicenter of the music and cultural universe, a haven for 400,000-plus hippies, bohemians, music lovers and mem- bers of the counterculture. It began when folkie Richie Havens began strumming his gui- tar, kicking off the festival with Paul Gerry/Bethel Woods Collection “From the Prison.” Thirty-two more acts, about 66 hours and several rainstorms later, it ended when guitar god Jimi Hendrix capped off a stellar set with his rendition of “Hey Joe.” Thousands of cars were left stranded for miles and miles en route to the venue as concertgo- ers walked to their destination. Tickets for the festival were $18, but many attendees got in for free when the crowd more than tripled what organizers had anticipated. Dallas Taylor, the drummer for supergroup Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (playing just its second-ever show), asked the helicopter pilot James Sarles/Bethel Woods Collection James Sarles/Bethel Woods Collection flying him to the event what body of More than 400,000 people descended on a dairy farm in Bethel, N.Y., for the concert held 50 years ago.
