Victory means exit strategy, and its important for the President to explain to us what the exit strategy is. ~George W. Bush (About the quote: Speaking on the war in Kosovo.)
Quite a few, but what are the chances of two albino brothers from Texas who can sing and play several instruments, have never been that well-known, and can kick out the jams they way they do?
"We become what we behold. We shape our tools and thereafter our tools shape us." -- Marshall McLuhan, after Alexander Pope and William Blake.
One of the most significant aspects of both men's work, however, was the fact that it revealed a deep respect for the African-American blues tradition, incorporating many of its elements, despite significant racial barriers that existed at the time. Also, rather than trying to downplay their unusual looks, the Winter brothers embraced them, using them to fuel their flashy rock-star image.

I heard Johnny in concert in 1969 and he was playing through 3 Fender Twin Reverb amps, (Ric Derringer played through 3 also) and they just barely cut the VA BEACH convention center. (That was before the days of miking everything thru the PA)
Humble Pie opened with Marshal stacks and they were plenty loud.
He should have kept it hidden. I mean, after all, it wasn't like he was Liberace or something.
I was 17 when I listened to his album and loved his playing, and people recognized his tunes immediately when I played them.
I wasn't the only young impressionable guitarist who looked up to him. But, the last thing I needed was to find out that he had a gay following in the city, like The Dolls or Blondie.
I had to cut him loose and I dropped the song GOOD MORNIN LITTLE SCHOOL GIRL from my playlist.
