Johnny Winter has not performed on network television since an appearance on Saturday Night Live three decades ago. However on Thursday night he will make his return to the TV spotlight via a performance on The Late Show with David Letterman (for more on the week’s late night musical guests, check out today’s installment of Rocking The Box, which appears each Monday on the site). Winter is currently making the rounds in support of his new album Roots, with a performance set for Tuesday night at B.B. King’s in Times Square. For more on Winter’s recent efforts, check out this feature, just posted to Relix.com.
