Regarded as one of the world's greatest blues rock guitarists and singers, Winter is an inductee into the Blues Foundation Hall of Fame and was ranked 74th in Rolling Stone's list of the 100 greatest guitar players ever in 2003. The musician has been performing since the 1960s and played alongside icons such as Jimi Hendrix, Santana, The Who and Joe Cocker at the era-defining Woodstock music festival in 1969.
