"The bulk of the generous hour and a quarter collection is packed with rugged, mostly rocking, and energized performances, clearly emotionally motivated, displaying the contributors' love of the songs, vocals, and playing that made Winter's blues based attack so iconic ... At the very least, Brother Johnny should send blues fans, or those new to his catalog, back to the initial recordings to appreciate the legendary guitarist's talents at their most inspired".

"Brother Johnny is arguably one of the greatest tribute albums of all time. Passionate and enthusiastic, the record celebrates Johnny Winter and introduces his music to newer generations with an outstanding selection of star guests and classic songs".

"A record like this is the ultimate tribute that could be expressed to an artist of Johnny Winter's stature and every cut here sizzles with the same kind of intensity Winter put down every time he touched his guitar. Prepare to love it at first listen".

"Brother Johnny features a long list of musicians whose own music Johnny Winter infleunced, including, among others, Joe Bonamassa, Robben Ford, Billy Gibbons, Warren Haynes, Keb' Mo', Waddy Wachtel, and Joe Walsh. Fifteen of the songs track Johnny Winter's evolution as an artist, and Edgar Winter has written two new songs for the tribute".
