The only live album by cult American Psychedelic/Jazz/Fusion/Blues Rock vocalist and multi-instrumentalist with his band White Thrash.
A powerful revue famous for their fusion of Funk, Gospel, R&B, and Rock 'n' Roll, the live follow-up to 1971's "Edgar Winter's White Trash" finds the band running through a handful of the tunes from their debut album, as well as rocking things up a bit with "Still Alive and Well" (a track later recorded by Edgar's brother Johnny) and "Back in the U.S.A.". 
The album was recorded before live audiences at the Apollo Theater and the Academy of Music in New York City and in Los Angeles at the legendary Whisky a Go Go nightclub.
Highlights include Winter's vocals and virtuoso keyboard work, plus the guitar styling of Rick Derringer. The longest track on the album was the band's own version of the John D. Loudermilk song, "Tobacco Road", which lasted over 17 minutes, taking up an entire side of the album. Derringer contributed lead vocals to "Still Alive and Well" and "Back in the USA", and Johnny Winter made a special appearance singing lead and playing guitar on "Rock and Roll, Hoochie Koo". Louisiana native Jerry LaCroix, who shared lead vocals with Winter in White Trash, is also prominently featured.
One of the most immortal lines for any live Rock album has to be "People keep askin' me: where's your brother?" - the introduction of guest artist Johnny Winter by his brother Edgar sets the stage for a rousing rendition of Rick Derringer's "Rock & Roll, Hoochie Koo". The extended version of Blues classic "Tobacco Road" is one of the finest moments on this album, which is itself a classic.
The album was certified Gold December 18, 1974 by the RIAA.
