  • Description

    Originally released in 1984, Guitar Slinger was Johnny Winter's Alligator debut after years of increasingly unfocused, rock-oriented albums. Johnny was thrilled to be on a label that was eager for nothin' but the blues and he delivered the goods, playing scorching guitar and singing like a man possessed, backed by an all-star band of Chicago blues veterans.

    Description

    "Slashing, flamboyant Texas blues-rock guitar" - NEW YORK TIMES / "Strongest album of Winter's career" - CHICAGO SUN-TIMES.

    Originally released in 1984, this Grammy-nominated album marked Winter's return to his blues roots, sparking a career renaissance that lasted the rest of his life. Cut with the cream of Chicago bluesmen, it features fan favorites like "Don't Take Advantage Of Me," "Trick Bag" and "Boot Hill."
