More talent in his little finger than most people can hope for in their entire body.

[@neonpark1874]

Steve Winwood is, and has been, amazing for many decades. As you said, he's known primarily as a vocalist and keyboard player but as you just saw, he's more than proficient on the guitar. He also plays mandolin, drums, bass and saxophone...you know, your classic underachiever. He's had success in multiple bands over the years: The Spencer Davis Group, Traffic, Blind Faith, and then as a solo act. Steve Winwood, in all his incarnations, is a deep rabbit hole that should be explored. Oh, I forgot to mention that he also writes, arranges, and produces a lot of his material.

[@mairyhuff7102]

If it hadn't of been for that damn hammond organ he could of been one of the greatest guitarists of all time 😁

[@iankearns774]

@@mairyhuff7102 We need more Hammond organ, as well as cow bell.

[@brendamilloy2557]

Neonpark1874? As in Neon Park who did the Little Feat covers? Which were absolutely too cool. 👍👣

[@neonpark1874]

No just a big fan of his artwork. He died a number of years ago.@@brendamilloy2557

[@emichels]

This is, by far, the best version of this song out there. Trust me, I've been a Winwood fan for like 30 years.

[@mrnobody9104]

Whether it's Blind Faith, Traffic, Spencer Davis Group or Solo: Steve Winwood is an icon worth the effort so in other words ..........keep diggin'

[@glennburch1081]

Seve Winwood has been in several bands and has hit songs with all of them: Spencer Davis Group, Blind Faith, and Traffic (Dave Mason played along side of him in this band). I liked him best with Traffic. Have seen him twice, live, and waiting on the third time! Some must-listen suggestions: Low Spark of High Heeled Boys (My favorite), Dear Mr Fantasy, While You See A Chance, Gimme Some Lovin, Valerie, Higher Love, Can't Find My Way Home, Back In the High Life Again, and Roll With It are just a few. Good friends with Elton John who has spent much effort in promoting this artist..... and rightly so. Inducted into the R&R HOF in 2004 as a member of Traffic. Always enjoy your entertaining reactions, TY

[@lindazee]

Imagine him at 16-17 years old, performing this song back in the 60s. It just seems that, generally speaking, young musicians and artists today don't have this level of sophistication and musical knowledge. He was a musical prodigy, and I don't know when this performance was shot, but he can still deliver!

[@edwardallen4051]

Can't Find My Way Home from the same concert , Winwood and Clapton, is absolute perfection. Oh and this was the best version Of Mr Fantasy I've ever heard.

[@markmurphy558]

Steve was a prodigy at the age of 15 with the Spencer Davis group He played guitar with the hard to rocking HUMBLE PIE, and Traffic had iconic songs, esp the jazzy LOW SPARK OF HIGH HEELED BOYS.

[@polycarphunter2257]

Steve Winwood is a rock and roll god. he's a survivor from the 60s. dodged the 27 club.

[@Kristina-jf4hd]

This was fantastic! How many noticed Eric Clapton coming on stage at the very end? They sang Can’t Find My Way Home together right after Dear Mr Fantasy. Another incredible song!

[@michaelrosa5410]

Jimi Hendrix said Steve Winwood was one of the most talented musicians of his time and wanted him in his band. Played with him on a few jams on the electric Ladyland LP.

[@imp736]

Your reaction to an old Traffic song would be nice, "Low Spark of High Heeled Boys".

[@gregkerr725]

The great Steve Winwood...rocking since the 60's!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@THELIVEBAITMAN-ch3uf]

I graduated high school in 72 and lived thru the greatest music ever........ he is on my bucket list

[@steelers6titles]

Started out as a teenager with the Spencer Davis Group. But he sang like he was about forty. Keep On Running I'm A Man and Gimme Some Loving

[@827dusty]

Steve Winwood is maybe the most talented artist in Rock History, and that has come from the the likes of Eric Clapton, and many other top Rock stars over the last 50 plus years. A master musician of over 20 different instruments, and a Soulful voice that has been compared to Ray Charles by many. He is a legend. Started out at age 16, when " Spencer Davis Group" asked his parents if Stevie could play with his Band, comprised of grown men in their mid to late 20s. The parents said no, but then relented when they were told how great their young son's (16) voice was, and he'd make a ton of money for everyone. The rest is history. This British Born musical wizard, is a legend.

[@paulprendergast3184]

He is known most for his vocals and second as being a great musician. He can play anything well

[@davidthrower1553]

I am sorry I totally disagree. Steve Winwood is known for being an amazing guitarist, a virtuoso keyboard player, a composer second to none AND a superb vocalist. If you have followed his career right from Spencer Davis group, to Blind faith, through Traffic (and return to Traffic) and all his solo career ….he is much more than ‘known most for his vocals’…..he is a musician par excellence. Watch him live with Clapton at Maddison Square Gardens….he is the better guitarist, Watch him with Traffic live playing keyboards on ‘Low SPark of High heeled Boys’ or ‘Empty pages’ (he wrote both)…..this man is much more than his amazing vocals. The most underrated musician on the planet…..Winwood is sheer genius

[@texasnewt]

yep.@@davidthrower1553

[@germanm.7636]

@@davidthrower1553 Winwood could play a chair......

[@John-fv8sc]

Steve was part of 3 successful legendary bands then went out solo for another great career.this particular song is a classic benn in shows and movies. At 67 it brings back many memories good and bad.

[@markotto9855]

He played every instrument on Arch of a Diver LP. God I'm old. It was a great album for the 80s. We needed the old blood to keep coming!!!!

[@beckoz77]

Amen to that. Arch of the Diver Amazing.

[@johnathanstruble1064]

Damn. Damn. DAMN , THAT WAS GOOOOD!..

[@robertstoner8244]

Steve is one of the best musicians ever

[@graememedley2506]

Seen him play live in concert in the early 90’s……he played every instrument on stage except drums. Phenomenal talent and up there as the best solo artist I’ve ever seen in my 60 years on the planet.

[@artsilva]

Steve Winwood is known for his unique soulful voice and tone usually jamming behind his Hammond organ but as you can see he occasionally can rock a Stratocaster with the best of them. That man in the end giving it up for Steve and putting his guitar on is the great Eric Clapton. Both were in Blind Faith together early in their careers.

[@mrgoneshouse3663]

Steve is simply one of the most talented Song Writers, Musicians(Anything he touches)....His Voice is insane

[@John-fv8sc]

Steve can slay the keys and strings along with other instruments and sing he has written and co wrote many classic songs with 4 different successful bands and a killer solo carrer.

[@Slo-ryde]

They knighted Paul McCartney in the UK, which is fine but to overlook this man’s talents is a complete sin!

[@davidglass4227]

Steve has been awesome since the 1960's.

[@davidmullens7565]

Steve Winwood is a music genius....

[@alpascarella8794]

That was Eric Clapton who came out at the end and joined SW to sing I Can't Find My Way Home.

[@steelers6titles]

Arc of a Diver (1980). Belongs in every collection.

[@michaeljohns3445]

"Can't Find My Way Home"

[@stevenmurphy6737]

Such an amazing singer, so powerful. I have enjoyed all his musical abilities for more years then I want to admit to, but unlike some, he still has it fully together.

[@jeffstevens4262]

He's KILLING that guitar. Stevie man, you ROCK!!!

[@johnpaul4784]

One of the greatest geniuses of the past 70 years and one of Eric Clapton's best friends. And when we hear it on the guitar we understand why!

[@donkunes8630]

Lots of good works from him and his group Traffic , Low Spark of High Heeled Boys , Can't Find My Way Home , John Barley Corn much more

[@killiansred1000]

Steve Winwood can play every instrument on that stage and did on his album ‘Arc of a Diver.’ I saw him in concert and every member of his band could play more than one instrument.

[@iankearns774]

One of my favourite albums of all time.

[@beckoz77]

I know I am a year late but.Arc of the Diver is one of the most amazing Albums Ever.

[@davidwhulbertiv5958]

Where do you think Clapton and Dave Mason got their sound! This man taught a bunch of folks how to express their sound✌🤘

[@1perfectpitch]

One of those songs I can smell.

[@larryc3860]

there is a version from one of the "Crossroads" concerts where Steve and Eric Clapton do this as a guitar duet.....killer

[@brendagrandi5416]

He does a song also called valorie..you need to hear it!

[@Timoeltejano]

You should check out his days with Spencer Davis Group while he was like 15 & 16. Talk about Wow factor.

[@jeraldkimball494]

Winwood is such a huge talent. I mean this dude can do it all. On top of those beautiful vocals he can play most any instrument. And all at such a high level. He doesn't get all the credit he should.

[@debbieplato5107]

Fabulous! I love Steve Winwood!!

[@davidwester9870]

Yes dear MR fantasy is iconic. But my personal favorite is Emtey Pages. I would love to see and hear your reaction 😄

[@larrywhite2574]

I also like this song too along with Can't Find My Way Home and Empty Pages.

[@allendesalme197]

This is from one of the Crossroads Music/Guitar festivals hosted by Eric Clapton. Always incredible shows. He and Clapton together is an absolute treasure. Winwood was playing with major bands when he was about 15. here are always lots of instrumentalists on stage at these festivals.

[@lancerx1759]

Check out a 17yr old Steve Winwood with the Spencer Davis Group doing Gimme some Lovin live its pretty awesome

[@xlerb_again_to_music7908]

:) Steve W predates Stones, Clapton, Hendrix - and is still going! Great Set - loved it! FYI Steve co-wrote this back in '67. He started out about 1960, From Wiki: "Winwood was a part of the Birmingham blues rock scene, playing the Hammond C-3 organ and guitar, backing blues and rock legends such as Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Howlin' Wolf, B.B. King, Chuck Berry, and Bo Diddley on their United Kingdom tours",

[@willasacco9898]

Thanks for the info. How old was he in 1960?

An incredible musician I heard years ago that he started playing at 14 I think professionally that was around the time he was playing in traffic I also heard somewhere Jimi Hendrix had approached him about playing with him in his band but it never happened

[@MRichK]

He played organ on Voodoo Chile slight return and their jam together made that and the Electric Ladyland album to me.

[@josefkurtz2223]

One thing i could never understand about steve is why he put the guitar down. He waseasillyone of the best

This man can do it all! Seen him live on 2 occasions, he’s simply phenomenal!

[@johnlowe5861]

This was his first hit with Traffic in '67. It was one of the anthems of the summer of love. So I'd say he's been known as a 🎸 player for a long time. He was screaming when I saw him in '69. And every time after that.

[@KennethCotarelo]

SYEVE WINWOOD!!! 'nuff said!!!!! Play me a song Mr. FANTASY!!!!!!!

[@davidporter499]

Written in the sixties whilst with Traffic, a distinctive voice.

[@scuppernog1]

Wow thank you guys and James for that amazing video. I have been listening to Steve's music for over 50 years. I should have known he was that good on the guitar since he is that good or better on damn near every other instrument. I'm just used to him having the likes of Sir Eric Clapton standing next to him playing guitar. By the way did you notice that it was Clapton that came on stage at the end there ?

[@strategicplanetxmuzik4384]

.....while relatively rare, 2 drummers did happen now and then. The Allman Brothers Band had 2 (Jaimoe and Butch Trucks), the Doobie brothers occasionally had 2 drummers as well. Multiple key players is much more common, with one player typically handling organ and piano sounds and the other playing synth pads and fills..... 🤠

[@gmb858]

The band is the touring band for Eric Clapton. This tune is from the "Crossroads Guitar Festival" in 2007. I was fortunate to see Steve and Eric Clapton perform a duet on Dear Mr. Fantasy in 2010. I also saw Steve perform it at a Hard Rock casino in 2012 in a room that held 3,000 at most. Each time he (and Eric) gave a command performance. He blew the roof off the joint!

[@paulmorris8762]

he plays a mean Hammond B3 organ too

[@dennisrichmond9874]

Steve was the Heart and soul of Traffic as their Lead singer and Lead Guitarist and is well known for his guitar playing !!!

[@brianbecker8013]

The talents of this man are off the charts when he toured with blind faith Clapton was his Guardian he was that damn young...

[@ericleonard2835]

Please do Traffic ,, Low Spark of Highheeled boys. Steve and the boys put on a clinic

[@michaelbastien3572]

Check out "The Low Spark of High-heel Boys" by Steve with Traffic.

[@robertstoner8244]

You should check out Steve at 15. Singing like ray Charles. When you're down and out

[@robertevans2450]

Winwood with Santana is one of the greatest concerts of all time...such music, such energy, such a wonderful moment shared...Seeing Santana play the guitar in this song with Steve doing vocals as the sun sets behind the hills lighting up the haze filled valleys was epic, and so happy I got to see that.

[@waynemoon5359]

BTW The Allman Brothers Band and The Grateful Dead both use 2 drummers.

[@johntrickey4188]

The quintessential prodigy. Steve Winwood was 15 in the Spencer Davis group. Remarkable person

[@iankearns774]

Steve Winwood is a legend, singer in 60's outfit Spencer Davis Group, songs like keep on running etc. One of my favourite albums is Arc of a Diver, I only played it again 2 weeks ago.

Such a great song!

[@teresakoslosky3053]

FIRE!!!! Takes me back!!🔥🔥

[@vicprovost2561]

What a awesome version of an all time classic Stevie has been at it since he was 16 in the Spencer Davis Group. His best work was with Traffic, try Low Spark of High Heeled Boys, Rock and Roll Stew and from his Blind Faith days, Had To Cry Today. Enjoy! 🎸

[@arminiusgratis9439]

Must say the only thing missing from this live version are the harmonica bits. Otherwise it is the best version I've heard since the Album came out. Fan since the 60's. He did a killer version of the song with Clapton and Blind Faith too !!

[@timlamb6196]

He sung for a band called blind faith back in the day and had a song called can't find my way home. Love that song, can relate to it. Then during his solo career back in the 80's he had a song titled valerie. Song about a woman he knew who wasted her life because of drugs. The "1987 version" video is the best imho. I can relate to that song as well :(

[@michaelmaddox7660]

YOUS GUYS ARE MY NEW FAVES11

[@allendesalme197]

Yes, as those below are writing, he is a keyboardist, but it is mostly on the Hammond B3 with a Leslie going. Sometimes he played a Rhodes. He was in several of the "Supergroups" (Blind Faith and the Spencer Davis group) but his best stuff is with Traffic, in my opinion, (which this song was originally done by) and then his later dance music (Arc of a Diver, The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys, etc). Plenty of really good music.

[@albertjflores8950]

San Antonio , Texas

[@ericmyers5003]

🤘🎸🙏🙏

[@jollyrodgers7272]

A child prodigy on the keyboards and at 15 sounded like Ray Charles singing! Check out some Live recordings of him with The Spencer Davis Group at 17 - "I'm A Man", "Gimme Some Lovin'"(he's on the c-3 Hammond and lead vocals). Should've kept the video going as Clapton was about to join in! I've seen them both on guitars doing this song. Always liked this song as it rises in intensity since Traffic came out with it.

[@dennisharper5425]

Winwood is greatness.

[@waynemoon5359]

Steve played with Eric Clapton and Ginger Baker in a band called Blind Faith. If you like his vocals please react to "Can't Find My Way Home". Back in the day We sang it at the top of our lungs at 3 o'clock in the morning while being very inebriated.

[@arye52]

This man is a legend

[@stretchgilbert]

I believe that's Steve Jordan on drums who was the first drummer in Letterman's (Paul Schaefer's) band. He is now replacing Charlie Watts in the Rolling Stones. That is Eric Claptons Band supporting Steve here. Jordan is the drummer in the Orange shirt
