Johnny Winter: Back and Kicking
Ben Edmonds, Creem, July 1973
THE HOUSE is an easy hour by car from the wall-to-wall insanity of midtown Manhattan, situated in one of the bedroom communities just over the Connecticut line. It's not an especially palatial house the wing which houses the indoor swimming pool cost as much to build as the main structure but it's certainly comfortable enough, and serves its function well. It's function these days is to accommodate a man who not so very long ago was at the center of the game of madness that lives across the bridge in New York.
