Remembering Johnny Winters.

Reading the 'RIP Jonathan Winters' thread actually brought me a cool memory.
Thanks Craig.

Awesome guy (Johnny Winters). He used to come here for a few days in the summer and stay at my friend Scott Chinery's house and hang around playing with his collection. (yes, Scott actually owned one of the original Bat-mobile's too)

We lost Scott in 2000 at the young age of 40 and It was the summer before he passed I remember Johnny hanging out at the beach house on Long Beach Island, picking away at some guitars, chilln' in the sweet ocean air.

Good times indeed. Miss you Scott.

Mike

    Love the forum 'auto-changes' by the way.

    I remember him working on the Blue Collection
    He owned another business but when he thought up this dream he sat in his office for a long time pulling it all together and pretty much told his brother to run Cybergenitics and don't bother him with that stuff lol.
    I remember every time a new one was finished and arrived, me and my friend Joe would rush over to check it out. 
    Each one was more beautiful and of a work of art than the last.
