 I really like.. I'm Going Home .. by Alvin Lee of 10yrs After, I think that is a cool song..

 But tonite, I was listening to  a vinyl disc called,
 Live Johnie Winter And.... not sure of the year..

 Anyway there is a song on there called ,
  Mean Town Blues.. that is simply fantastic...  great stuff...

I saw Johnny Winter about 5 times back in the 70's! The album "Live Johnny Winter and" is
from 1971. Rick Derringer is the other guitar player! Killer tune!!!

 Just sayin, I had NO IDEA.. what he LOOKED LIKE, while playing.. or how many instruments he did play on that.. .. total madman...

 What exactly is that keboard on a sling called.. ..I am thinking some kind of synthesizer..??

[Damfino]

Him & Johnny were pretty scary looking... (They were Albino's I believe)

 

This is from Wikipedia...

"Frankenstein" is a rock instrumental by The Edgar Winter Group from their album They Only Come Out At Night. In live performances of the song, Edgar Winter further pioneered the advancement of the synthesizer as a lead instrument by becoming the first person ever to strap a keyboard instrument around his neck[citation needed], giving him the on-stage mobility and audience interaction of guitar players. The song topped the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart for a week starting in May 1973, and sold over one million copies. It was knocked from the #1 spot by Paul McCartney's "My Love". Frankenstein reached #18 in the UK the following month.[1]

HaHa.. knocked from 1st place by me and my wife's wedding song!

Yes, they are albinos and talented too. The song "Frankenstein" was a song they pieced together over time, hence the name.

its called a keytar.

[tramp]

not a bad blues man
best ever riding song
the blues theme

[Brown Bomber]

Edgar Winter was the first  put a strap on his synthesizer so he could get out and move around on stage. Wasn't called a Keytar when he started it. I've seen him 3 times now, and he always tells that story on stage.
