Album Notes
Personnel: Johnny Winter (vocals, guitar, harmonica); John Paris (vocals, guitar, harmonica); Terry Manning (vocals, keyboards); William Brown (vocals, background vocals); Jon Paris (harmonica, bass guitar); Ken Saydak, Lester Snell (keyboards); Tom Compton (drums).Recording information: Alpha Sound, Memphis, TN; Ardent Studio.Photographer: Mick Rock .Johnny Winter returns to major-label distribution for the first time in eight years with The Winter of '88, released by Voyager Records via MCA. This is a project produced and engineered by Terry Manning, who also contributed some keyboards, and Manning's intent seems to have been to move Winter in a more commercial direction, specifically toward the synth-enhanced boogie of ZZ Top. That effect is particularly notable on the lead-off track, "Close to Me," and on "Show Me"; otherwise, Manning is more subtle. Still, after three straight blues albums for the independent Alligator Records label, Winter had established a pure blues pedigree, and a move back toward the mainstream may not sit well with his more purist fans. It isn't really that overt, for the most part, but this is clearly a more highly produced, more commercially intended record than any Winter has made since he left the CBS Records subsidiary Blue Sky after Raisin' Cain in 1980. ~ William Ruhlmann
