When Musicians Could Play
This is Edgar Winter and Rick Derringer playing Frankenstein. I had always heard that this song was created from scraps on the mixing room floor, but this video belies this. Rick and Edgar are little kids in this video. They're about the age of the Back Street Boys are younger. Can you imagine a modern pop group performing like this in one take on analog tube equipment without "sweetening" or computer synthesis?
