Johnny Winter- “HEY, WHERE’S YOUR BROTHER?”- CD- 1992/2002-
- Pointblank/Virgin Records Ltd.- 077778651222- 400 grn
"HEY, WHERE’S YOUR BROTHER?" was originally released in 1992 by Point Blank Records. On the classic 1972 live album Roadwork, Edgar Winter immortalized the words, when introducing brother Johnny: "Everybody asks me...where's your brother?" It's a question that fans have besieged both Winters with for over two decades, and now Johnny gets a chance to return the tribute with his 1992 release here. Edgar does in fact guest on the sessions, blowing sax and tinkling keys on a few tracks, and dueting with big bro' on a superb, seasonal rendition of "Please Come Home for Christmas." Maybe it's because they look almost exactly alike (and it's a look you're not likely to forget) but more than any other pair of brothers in rock & roll, Johnny and Edgar Winter will always be thought of as a duo, despite the fact that they really don't play together very much. Johnny's a straight-up bluesman, after all, a white-hot guitarist with roots in the Texas soul of T-Bone Walker and Charlie Christian. Little brother Edgar, a keyboard and saxophone prodigy, has more eclectic tastes, with his own albums ranging from jazz-tinged instrumental funk to space-prog epics.
PERSONNEL: Johnny Winter (vocals, guitar, acoustic guitar, electric guitar); Edgar Winter (vocals, alto saxophone, tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone, organ); Jeff Ganz (electric guitar, upright bass, electric bass, fretless bass); Billy Branch (harmonica); Tom Compton (drums, percussion).
The joke is that even on 1992's HEY, WHERE'S YOUR BROTHER (a phrase both of them must hear a dozen times a day) Edgar only joins his big brother on a few tracks, a soulful rendition of Charles Brown's blues classic "Please Come Home for Christmas" being a clear highlight. Another treat is the sassy "You Must Have a Twin," one of the non-twins' few co-written songs. The whole album bristles with good humor and genial attitude, making it one of the most enjoyable items in either brother's catalogue.
