Johnny Winter is premiering “Mojo Hand”, a new song featuring Aerosmith’s Joe Perry that will appear on his forthcoming album, “Step Back.”
“If it wasn’t for Johnny,” says Perry, “I’d never have picked up the guitar.”
Due September 2, the 13-song collection also includes contributions from Eric Clapton, Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, Brian Setzer, Joe Bonamassa, Leslie West and others.
Produced by Paul Nelson, “Step Back” was completed shortly before Winter died on July 16 in his hotel room in Zurich, Switzerland while on tour in Europe at the age of 70.
Winter will be the focus of an all-star tribute concert at B.B. King’s in New York City on October 10; details regarding the guest lineup will be announced soon.
