Remember 'Frankenstein' well. One of the coolest tunes I knew as a pipsqueak pre-teen. Must've drove the local radio stations nuts with all of my request calls for that song. They rarely played it though; I was too young and naïve to understand the concept of heavy rotation/limited variety playlists.

Glad he is still alive. Happy Birthday Edgar.

First concert I ever went to was Edgar Winters White Trash opening up for Ten Years After. Set a standard for me that few concerts afterwards ever met.

Never saw Edgar but did see Johnny back in the mid '70s.

I still find that song incredible! Music talent in the 70's was over the top!

I saw him a CES many years ago at a Sony party along with Creedence (sans Fogerty).
He was great. Cool
Happy BD

I saw him as part of a big summer outdoor concert with the Eagles and Yes at Colt Park in 1972.
The Eagles weren't huge yet and were the lead act, followed by Edgar Winter and then Yes, who were big at that time.
