The late great Johnny Winter. One of my favourite blues-rock musicians of all time.
He came to UK in ’79. One concert. I saw the ad for the show in the Melody Maker. Emblazoned across it was the announcement. Sold Out!
I was in a foul mood for a week! Never got the opportunity to see him again.
Such is life!
Ark.
Could be the inspiration for a song.
The Sold Out Concert Blues
Saw an ad for a concert
But the show was sold out
Oh, saw an ad for a concert
But the show was sold out
Caused much disappointment
Of this there’s no doubt

At the time, my thoughts were more Shakespearian.
”Now is the Winter of my discontent
Made glorious summer by my Jo’berg Advent.”
