Steve Winwood - Can't Find My Way Home (PBS Soundstage 2005)

[@tedduggan4887]

The mark of a great artist is to take a song they’ve played and sung hundreds of times and make it sound as fresh and heartfelt as the first time…Steve Winwood does that EVERY TIME 🎶 - TGD

Steve and Eric Clapton performing this incredible song on acoustic guitar was one of the highlights of seeing them in concert together. ❤❤

[@catherinecrow5662]

I've seen Steve in Traffic, Blind Faith and his Solo iterations. He's a very special, even genius, musician who touches the soul with his humble, authentic music

[@michaelpiltch1191]

I wish someone recorded him in the backup band for John Lee Hooker's UK tour in the early 60s. Steve would barely be able to shave.

[@Jadar...]

Is the guy that plays congas here the legendary Rebop (seems to me he must be, and that I can recognise his particular style there - hope I won't offend anybody -) ? I'm asking you because he was the guy who played in Traffic back in "The Low Spark of High-heeled Boys" (and since you sawTraffic)...How I've liked that album !

[@FreqCity-BelairsShow]

I missed Blind Faith. I'm envious.

[@chrisshenzo2594]

Cath- That is SO well put I'm envious of your comment!

[@andrewmitchell840]

likewise. Last visit was 2 years ago. Truly amazing

[@ldolphin34]

It occurs to me after listing to Steve Winwood all these years how sincere and humble he as is a songwriter. You can see it in his face during this whole PBS performance how it's not his showmanship that's important, but actually getting each song's message out to the audience. Maybe it's this intent that makes him so good at everything he touches.

[@cjk5115]

I challenge anyone to find Steve doing a bad version of this incredible song - it's simply impossible. I've had the privilege of seeing Steve about a dozen times, including with Jim Capaldi in 1994, and the man never ceased to blow me away. I'm forever grateful for his music.

[@grindlessenior]

you are not alone! brilliant writer and singer, not to mention guitarist and keyboard player.

This is a complete 5th below the original key and still sounds bitchin

the pleasure of watching one of the greatest musicians, songwriter, and arranger is worth every minute you spend watching him. Steve Winwood is on a level by himself.

[@mikerainwater6154]

Yes

[@promerops]

It's Steve Winwood. Enough said.

[@chicklets4ever51]

Stevie is one of the real giants of the 60s generation. He is on a level with the very best: Lennon, Hendrix, Dylan, and just a few others.

[@philippevermeille9127]

you can add jon anderson !

[@chicklets4ever51]

@@philippevermeille9127 Sorry, but, IMHO, Anderson is not remotely on the same level as Winwood, Lennon, Hendrix, and Dylan.

One of my favorite songs from the "Blind Faith" Album. Steve Winwood is an amazing musician, and I always loved his music from The Spencer Davis Group, Traffic, and his solo career. I always hoped they would have released more albums with Blind Faith.

Prophetic song INDEED as MANY a Rock Star couldn't find their way Home. But Winwood & Brit Buddy Clapton HAVE .. Both of them performed this Tune in Hyde Park in London back in the day.. Got to say Steve looks REALLY good for his age.. The Man took CARE of Himself indeed..

[@paulskillett6242]

Saw Stevie with the Spencer Davis Group at St Georges Hall Guernsey when I was a young lad (so was Stevie) in the early 60's BRILLIANT.Never will forget those days.

[@McNair39thNC]

Steve is not a show off but I can guarantee you he’s one of the best if not the best guitarist out there and he plays everything else deeply well as well

Heard Steve and his brothers when I was 15 (now 70) in Scheveningen (Holland), Steve was 17. I had an LP but someone never gave it back to me. It was good music. Among others "On the green light". I don't know anymore how this band was called.

[@marygonzales8986]

Where did all the time go???

[@jennifertissington8303]

Saw him many times when I was still at school in the sixties mostly at the Marquee. Even as a teenager he was brilliant and really got me in to blues - and then there was Traffic - say no more - a great band.

Probably not from those reading this, but Stevie is so underrated, overall.

[@markstevens6568]

Saw him with Jimi Hendrix and again at the Fairfield Halls when they recorded the Canteen album and finally at Montreux Jazz festival about 12 or so years ago when he played a stunning solo version of Mr Fantasy for over 20 minutes. Unique voice. Great songwriter. Brilliant multi-instrumentalist - what more can I say?

[@lessehead]

The Canteen album is one of my favorite albums of all time. It’s framed and hanging on my music wall.

[@GuitarJimBourke]

My first rock concert was Traffic 🚥 at age 13 1972 in Miami Fla

[@angrysilence1234....]

"Home" is a place, a not only a dwelling. But, a place in your own heart and mind. If a person "can't find" that, nobody else can "help" them find it. They have to, then, "build" their own "home", where they want it, with what "furnishings" or people they want in it. That's the next best thing that they can do. Some people, though, think of themselves at "home" no matter where they go, because no matter where they are, they know that THEY (THEMSELVES) will be the same, for that person, I guess they, themselves, or the way in which they "see the world" IS their true home, not a mere place, but somewhere IN themselves, in their own mind. My philosophy of this tune, for what it's worth. IMHO. 🙂

[@solworx]

Resonating. Thanks for sharing. My two more cents : Being lost is NOT bad/evil like the prodigal son coming back home post being lost, its staying lost and not trying that affects the Heart-mind-body complex consciousness. Submitting to the already ever present unity flow IS the home which doesn't have to be found but be surrendered through by grace or effortless effort. That's our 4 cents for what it's worth

[@TheFlameTop]

Steve's musical out-put has alway's been impeccable , that being said , I had felt for the longest time that these offerings here from this PBS 2005 stuff was in some way a glimpse of Steve's earlier self . A side of him from before his solo career began .A side from before a point of seasoned maturity , When he took more of a stance in contribution and exploration into the great unkown as compared to endorsing a perspective based on self.The self image of the solo career carried on after it began and attached itself to all even though the veteran stood practically from the beginning .I thought perhaps in some way that there was a revisit of a sense of exploring into a fresh unknown once again here.

[@TheFlameTop]
