Member Since: May 2003 Posts: 9,629 Send Message	RIP <3 Blues guitarist Johnny Winter, known for his energetic solo performances, has died at the age of 70. Winter - hailed as one of the 100 greatest guitarists of all time - rose to fame in the 1970s, including memorable collaborations with his mentor Muddy Waters. He passed away in Zurich earlier this week, just days after playing at the Lovely Days Festival in Austria. He recently said he just wanted to be remembered as "a good blues musician".
