Johnny Winter's second album for Columbia--duh--1970's SECOND WINTER is also notorious for a gimmicky sales device. When the recording sessions were over, Winter had enough material for an album and a half; rather than add a side of filler, Columbia simply promoted the album as the world's first three-sided album. (In a snarky review, Rolling Stone sarcastically gave the blank fourth side an in-depth discussion.)
The last of Winter's albums to feature his original backing band--drummer Uncle John Turner, bassist Tommy Shannon, and brother Edgar on keyboards and saxes--SECOND WINTER is a refinement of the blues-rock aesthetic of 1969's JOHNNY WINTER. Louder, harder, faster, and more reckless, this is to JOHNNY WINTER as Elvis Costello's THIS YEAR'S MODEL is to MY AIM IS TRUE: an album so phenomenal that it makes the debut, excellent though it is, sound weak in comparison. Highlights include the punky "I Hate Everybody" and a brilliant Hendrix-style deconstruction of Dylan's "Highway 61 Revisited."
Includes liner notes by Johnny Winter.

Uncut (p.92) - 3 stars out of 5 - "SECOND WINTER features blistering versions of 'Highway 6`1 Revisited' and 'Johnny B Goode', and his guitar technique is clearly phenomenal." Goldmine - "...[though the] original album was rather tough-sounding, the CD's increased treble adds the extra layer of icing, making this one sweet release...lean and hungry sounding..."

| | Black Sabbath Mob Rules CD (1981) Import; Remastered
Second Winter CD music
$14.79 Black Sabbath had put itself back on track both musically and commercially with the 1980 album HEAVEN AND HELL, as the addition of new vocalist Ronnie James Dio was the shot in the arm Sabbath needed. A follow-up was released one year later, MOB RULES, which follows in the same mega-decibel approach as its predecessor. While it is still a vast improvement over Sabbath's final two albums with Ozzy Osbourne (1976's TECHNICAL ECSTASY and 1978's NEVER SAY DIE), it doesn't exactly match the inspired performances and top compositions featured on HEAVEN AND HELL.
The opening track, "Turn Up the Night," kicks off the album with a jolt of electricity, while other hard rocking highlights include the mid-paced "Voodoo" and the raging title track--the latter would be featured on the soundtrack to the cult animated movie, HEAVY METAL. Another standout was the near eight-minute epic "The Sign of the Southern Cross," which starts as a gentle acoustic composition, before transforming into a classic slice of plodding ...
| | Li'l Ronnie & The Grand Dukes Do What Cha Do CD (2005)
Second Winter music CDs
$16.45 Li'l Ronnie & the Grand Dukes are, to quote one reviewer "the real deal...superb talents well versed in traditional blues"Following on the footsteps of their critically acclaimed CD, 'Young & Evil' Ronnie and the band have really hit their stride with their third release, 'do what 'cha do'. The new disc features 11 original songs written or co-written by Ronnie and band mate Michael Dutton. 'do what 'cha do' is produced by their old friend and blues master Anson Funderburgh. It's their best work to date and having Anson in the producer's chair was a wise decision. Anson brought with him a wealth of experience and an understanding of what the band is all about. He certainly helped capture the band as close to 'live' as possible and that's the only way to fully appreciate this talented band of blues veterans. The band goes from primitive 1 chord blues romps, Chicago harmonica blues to West Coast jump blues and all parts in-between. They are led by veteran singer / songwriter and Hohner Harmonica endorsee Ronnie Keith Owens.Ronnie has been performing since the early 60's and has been fronting his own bands for over 25 years. He has shared the stage & played with some of the biggest names in blues, John Lee Hooker, James Cotton, Taj Mahal, Carey Bell, Anson Funderburgh / Sam Meyers, Big Bill Morganfield and Many more. Sharing the band leading duties & adding his incendiary guitar ...
| | Deep Purple Who Do We Think We Are CD (1973)
Second Winter songs
$16.15 After establishing itself as a hard-rock giant, thanks to endless touring and the release of such milestone records as MACHINE HEAD and IN ROCK, Deep Purple was in a state of turmoil when it went into the studio to record 1972's WHO DO WE THINK WE ARE? Despite all the infighting, the band pulled together long enough to record seven tracks that only bolstered the band's reputation.
The best-known song, "Woman From Tokyo," boasted a riff as memorable as the one that defined "Smoke on the Water" and was later admitted by Ritchie Blackmore to have been cribbed from Eric Clapton's "Cat Squirrel." Although Blackmore's always-impressive riffing stands out on such songs as "Mary Long" ...

Second Winter CD music
$7.59 Contains an untitled hidden track after "At The End Of All That's Good And Pure".
Black Cat Music is a young band filled with charisma and attitude, and with the release of Hands in the Estuary Torso in the Lake, their music comes to the forefront with intensity and gripping power. Their melodies are compelling and awe-inspiring, but what persuades the listener to hear this music the most is the group's flamboyance and their ability to take their instruments and bend the tunes to the extreme. Much of the record is filled with riveting instrumentalism, sharp riffs, and dynamic musical twists and turns. With a hurricane-like appeal, Black Cat Music expresses their lyrical and musical material with flair and radiance, performing in stirring fashion. A band leaning toward a cool personality of garage blues and punk rock, Black Cat Music successfully blends these styles to create a sound that's unique, a sound they can remarkably claim as their own. Dynamics, twisted chordal structures, and ...
