It's My Life, Baby

Description

It's My Life, Baby is a 180 gram vinyl-only (plus download) Record Store Day release that captures the best of Johnny Winter's Alligator albums.

Johnny Winter was a world-famous blues and rock icon for over 45 years.

His three mid-1980s releases on Alligator, Guitar Slinger, Serious Business and 3rd Degree, hold a special place in the hearts of his fans, as they heralded a return to his blues roots after years spent lost in the rock 'n' roll wilderness.

Gone were the Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan covers, replaced by deep blues tunes from J.B.

Lenoir, Lonnie Brooks, Willie Dixon and more.

No-frills production and backing from the cream of Chicago's blues players make these among the most sought-after albums in his catalogue, with combined sales of over 250,000 units.

Guitar Slinger and Serious Business were nominated for Grammy awards.

It's My Life, Baby is a vinyl-only RECORD STORE DAY release that captures the best of those three incendiary albums.

It will be a 180 gram pressing and include a download card for the entire record.

It's My Life, Baby showcases Johnny Winter in his absolute prime, with blistering fretwork and knife-edge slide runs igniting eight classic tracks shot through with brilliant, career-defining performances.
