Biography
“The McCoys” had enjoyed four years of successful touring, when Rick merged his talents with Johnny Winter in 1969 forming “Johnny Winter And” (“And” referring to “The McCoys”).
Rick was the only producer of all gold and platinum Winter Brothers recordings.
In ‘71 Rick was featured on three records, “Johnny Winter And”, “Johnny Winter And-Live” and “Edgar Winter’s White Trash”. “And” featured the first version of Derringer’s “Rock and Roll Hoochie Koo” which was also released as a single, then selected again for “And - Live”.
Eventually the busy Derringer joined Edgar’s White Trash full-time and produced the gold LP, “Roadwork”. Derringer’s solo album, “All American Boy” was released in ‘73 with the now already popular “Rock and Roll Hoochie Koo”, this time as a ‘hit’ single.
Rick was writer/producer of Johnny Winter’s “Still Alive and Well” album and was player/producer of the Edgar Winter Group’s hit album, “They Only Come Out At Night”. The latter featured the No. 1, Grammy nominated monster hit, “Frankenstein” and “Free Ride”.
In 1976 Rick created the Derringer Band. He released four albums and in ‘83 returned to his solo career with the LP, “Good Dirty Fun”.

Listening to the new album "The Three Kings of the Blues" just reminds me what an amazing guitar player Derringer was.

Andy Warhola is right ! definitely one of the best electric blues guitarist around and Jackhammer Blues & Back to Blues are both "smoking hot" albums that nobody has ever heard of ! They dont know what their missing ! This guy still gets it done !

hmm, just been starting listening to Rick Derringer and his albums Back To Blues and Jackhammer Blues are certainly not crap. In fact I think he might be the best blues gitarist I've heard!

I wouldn't say "Sweet Evil" (1977) is crap. For example, just listen to "Sittin' By The Pool". The song rocks, his guitar work is incredible and the production quality is amazing. I think it was his finest work.

How did he make Rock and Roll Hoochie Koo, then make nothing but crap?

Yeah, Bought this one on vinyl too. Sounds a bit dated and tame by today's rock standards. I don't like all this Stars and Stripes crap, anyway, Love & Peace xxx
