Johnny Winter – True To The Blues: The Johnny Winter Story – 4 CD Columbia/ Legacy – 25-02-2014

Riprendiamo il giro delle Anticipazioni sulle uscite in Box Set del 2014. Quando non ho pronti altri Post o ci sono problemi di connessione con il Blog (tipo oggi), vado a recuperare le notizie che preparo e poi archivio per essere utilizzate, di volta in volta.

Come per Michael  Bloomfield, la Sony, nella sue serie Legacy, pubblicherà un cofanetto quadruplo dedicato al grande chitarrista albino Texano. L’uscita è prevista per il 25 febbraio p.v. (il giorno prima del mio compleanno, mi è venuta così) e conterrà 57 tracce estratte da 27 differenti album che coprono tutto l’arco della carriera di Johnny Winter, con 2 inediti assoluti e parecchi brani “rari”, comprese collaborazioni con altri artisti.
