The great Steve Winwood. Great vocals, plays about 30 different instruments at a high level, and one of the best Keyboard players. Born, and raised in England.

[@KrazyKatLadyx2]

From the Crossroads concert, try "Can't Find My Way Home", excellent song and performance with Eric Clapton

[@MARCOSIDJUNE]

Steve winwood// BLind Faiths "Cant Find my way Home"

[@artsilva]

I am so accustomed to seeing Steve performing behind the Hammond Organ that I forget he is also a fantastic guitarist.... and yes, that was Eric Clapton at the end.

[@user-tb9dx9mg2njsb]

He started out as a very young teenager! he is amazing

[@noelleone1305]

Top five of my all time Steve Winwood compositions, And yes, that was Eric coming back to the stage.

[@JohnLedger-g4i]

Windwood played in one of the “ supergroups “ with Eric Clapton and Ginger Baker, both ex Cream, called Blind Faith. Short lived but worth a listen.

[@AW11-e4h]

Can’t find my way home, from this same concert 🤘🤘

[@paulyoung8108]

Winwood is another child prodigy, Mozart,if you will,check out "nobody knows you when you're down and out", he was fifteen when he joined The Spencer Davis group,and has only grown in stature

[@gistechrep3816]

This is a Classic! Perfection. Yes, that was Eric Clapton. Eric hosted an annual Crossroads Music Festival in support of his addiction recovery center in Antigua. Steve was one of his guests at this event.

[@827dusty]

He first recorded this in 1967, so it's been around for a long time. Such a great Classic Rock song.

[@ronniecarter2645]

BOOM.!!! Nailed it, once again.. Great reaction.

[@doughaviland1729]

Dive into his MASSIVE catalog! I'm a man Can't Find My Way Home The Low Spark of High Heeled Shoes Freedom Rider and so many more!❤❤❤❤

[@Grateful_Dad_54]

Best Live (Audio and Video) version of "the low spark of high heeled boys" with a great saxophone intro by the late Chris Wood: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGmwaYVuaJp2oZY

[@markmurphy558]

I am shocked to see you react to Steve Winwood, because I just heard an unbelievable performance of Steve when he was in the Spencer Davis Group. It is a traditional blues tune called NOBODY LOVES YOU WHEN YOU ARE DOWN AND OUT. He channels Ray Charles in a totally different style voice than he used in later incarnations. It was stunning. He sounds like a old black man with arthritis. If you listen, you woll be floored.

[@grandwazoodebris1015]

I just saw that video too, that was crazy good. Winwood's a great singer, but I didn't know he could do that.

[@MerchantOfAlba]

Thank you. We'll look for it. All the best ☺️

[@malachi1974]

Winwood is a true prodigy. As you can see in this video, he can really jam on the guitar, plus he plays many other instruments as well. Oh, and he was singing for the Spencer Davis Group at 16 yrs old😮 "little Stevie Winwood"

[@michaelsimmons8052]

Steve Winwood was 19 years old when this song was originally released. This version is from the Madison Square Garden concerts he did with Eric Clapton.

[@757optim]

Dominika, yes that was Erik Clapton. This performance was at the Crossroads Guitar Festival that Clapton hosted to benefit the rehab center he established in Antigua.

[@willieboy3011]

When I think Stevie Winwood, I think Traffic and Blind Faith. Those are two real good bands.

[@johnathanstruble1064]

Yes! Thank you both for this incredible performance, Winwood is a master on the keyboards , and blew this sell out crowd by picking up the Fender! ❤ Crossroad festivals are amazing grouping of artists! .love to the Merchants, from your friend in the States! ✌️

[@jenniferfoster1692]

Yes, that was Eric Clapton at the end. He organized the Crossroad shows for years and brought a lot of great people to play on at the shows & with him. They're about to do a song called "I Can't Find My Way Home' from the band they were in together called Blind Faith. It was a super group & they just made one album together but it was a great album. You should check out 'I Can't Find My Way Home' by them! Steve is an icon of icons & has worked with all the greats. Jimi Hendrix sought him out to play organ on Voodoo Chile with him & had wanted to be in a band with Steve. He's been performing since he was 8 years old, with his dad and brother. Total legend that all musicians respect.

[@custardflan]

There are live performances on KZbin of Steve with the Spencer Davis Group when he was just a teenager. I particularly recommend Gimme Some Lovin and I'm a Man.

[@simchabaruch7023]

To say CLASSIC is a perfect description. If you look in the dictionary under "classic rock and roll guitar solo", it says, listen to Dear Mr. Fantasy.

[@jskit92380]

You two are just the best, love the reaction, the commentary and the way you interact with each other. Oh and the puppy🐕 is too cute in the background. 😂❤ ☮🖤🤘

[@MerchantOfAlba]

Thank you. Warm greetings from Romania 💚☺️🐶

[@rk41gator]

Classic Winwood!

[@Boo.....]

I love this channel. You react to so much great music. I'm British and you even introduced me to music I don't even know about that comes from here. 😂 What does 'Merchants of Alba mean? Is it a reference? It sounds interesting.

[@kevinfitzpatrick8532]

Excellent choice 🎶🎸👌

[@keeperokewl9569]

PLEASE listen to Can't Find My Way Home.... the solo version where he is sitting by a fire. BEAUTIFUL

[@kentonwatts504]

makes perfect sense!

[@kentonwatts504]

saw steve winwood with eric clapton and they did this together so good

[@susantodd6963]

I absolutely did enjoy the video! Your insight is always impressive, considering you have never heard most of these songs before. "Low Spark of High Heeled Boys" and "Can't Find My Way Home" are my two favorites from Steve Winwood.

[@MerchantOfAlba]

Glad you enjoyed! 💚

[@blindriv3r]

Clapton has said that it was not only Hendrix who inspired him to switch from Gibson to Fender, but Steve Winwood as well

[@brandonjones1349]

you guys never miss. Ty MOA☘️🇺🇲

[@gcats6059]

Jerry Garcia from the Greatful Dead loved this song. They toured together in the US and Jerry came out to play this song with Steve. It was awesome and there is video of it if you search for it.

[@franciscialini7489]

😊😊😊😊😊

[@escepticus]

You should listen it with the original version album (same name as the song) , is spectacular!

[@JBHogan]

Please react to 40,000 Headmen by Traffic!!

[@bobmessier5215]

Eric Clapton performed with Steve, when they were in the band Blind Faith. Around this time they were doing a solo tour together, so that might've been Eric that you saw on stage.

[@artgentile5776]

It was.

[@custardflan]

Other Traffic songs to check out, The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys and Feelin Alright., which has been covered more than just about any son, the most iconic of which is by Joe Cocker with Chris Stainton on piano.

[@MerchantOfAlba]

Thank you. We'll check it out for sure 😊

[@paullilley3879]

This young man,just like Mark,has the respect of the rest of the music industry!I believe first of all, he was an organ scholar,hence his mastery of the Moog synthesizer❤❤

[@tedsmith4385]

Yes it was Eric

[@Markrealguy51]

All selections are just great.. So talented.. Maybe try his song empty pages…there’s a great instrumental solo in it.. Thanks.. You two make a nice couple

[@AnonymousServant513]

Try his original band The Spencer Davis Group. His idol? Ray Charles. Cheers you two!

[@dalemcmillan7231]

❤❤

[@chitownlee]

He was 19 in 67.

[@thomasripley1548]

Several musicians from this time played together in different vands. Notably steve and eric Clapton, , i couldnt tell their styles apart or their voices..

[@JohnBullard]

Some of the greatest hits were by bands that only had one. A real banger is RUN RUN RUN by Jo Jo Gunne. Its a real rocker, emblematic of '70's rock.

[@woodyw6891]

Listen to the original, and you’ll hear why he was called the British Ray Charles.

[@danhill5619]

The Original Frontman

[@alambyant]

Yes it is Eric Clapton.

[@gerrydantone6834]

To think that guitar is NOT Winwood's best instrument!!! It's keyboard!

[@nigelw7626]

Frightening thing is...he's even better playing keyboards / organs...

[@patriciahopkins99]

Check out Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow “Picture”👍

[@MarkKlass]

In the same vein of the performer having to deal with the industry, try the sone from Traffic, "The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys". This isn't a short song but it is a wonderful mix of jazz and rock. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGmwaYVuaJp2oZY is a live version from 1972 and here's the cut from the album - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHWqoKV_jL6tY6M Make sure you pull up the lyrics so you can see how I think it ties in with what you were saying. Thanks! You guys are great!

[@MerchantOfAlba]

Thank you kindly 💚

[@T_Witti]

Just realized you haven't reacted to Chinchillas new song 1:5 (prepare tissues)!

[@onomatopie1]

luckily, there are still artists who refuse to be 'guided'... to name a few... Tool, Ren, Frank Zappa, etc.. they even have songs relating to that shit (sorry;) staying true to yuurself can be a challenge;)

[@pete3883]

drug song?
