Johnny Winter-"Captured Live" (1976)

"Captured Live" shows the best moment and the maximum expression of Johnny Winter and his electric blues rock, with great vitality and bringing out the best of traditional blues but with a powerful rock where his characteristic sound with the six strings here was reinforced by a second guitarist like Floyd Radford.
Recorded during the tour of the two albums that Johnny Winter had released in 1974; "Saints & Sinners" and "John Dawson Winter III", collects songs from different concerts offered in California, more specifically at the At Swing Auditorium in San Benardino, at the Sport Arena in San Diego and the Colisseum in Oakland.
With a repertoire full of electric versions, the version of Bob Dylan's classic "Highway 61 Revisited" and Winter's own "Sweet Papa John" stand out above all.
A great live show from one of the best blues guitarists in history, who during his long career left us with some of the most memorable albums of that genre.
