I roadied for Steve in the Spencer Davis Group in the 60s. Met him in Denmark Street just off Charing Cross Road. First thing I noticed was his great Brummie accent. I was 16 and had been playing guitar and taking piano lessons since age 8. I learned a lot from Steve and the band. I went on to play Hammond B 3 and guitar in bands in London and still do. Great stuff and memories.

Stevie turned semipro at 14 when he joined the Spencer Davis Group in 1962, and by 16 had reached professional grade and was taking the world by storm. An authentic musical genius as vocalist, keyboardist, blew and rock guitarist, and songwriter. Everyone wanted to jam with him, as suggested by this clip.

I saw him in Seattle, late 80s, early 90s. My brother had never heard of Winwood. Watching his jaw hit the floor was half the fun! When they started the bass line to this song, the curtain was up. When the B-3 started to scream, they DROPPED the curtain DOWN! "The crowd went wild!"

I remember when I was just a 10 or 11 year old, when this song dominated the airwaves in Southern California. I was certain it was a black group at the time. I was later dumbstruck when I discovered they, The Spencer Davis Group, were white. Good music transcends color.

Leslies were always a trade off. 147's sounded good but got drowned out by louder instruments. 925's were louder but not as sweet. A band we did sound for, Louisiana's La Roux put their 147 in an isolated room and sent the signal to a SVT head and cabinet on stage.

He actually started with his dad and brother when he was prepubescent. Played piano and guitar in clubs and they had to hide him behind the piano so that people wouldn't complain that there were children in the band. This guy is the real deal, and so lacking in the ego department that it stuns me.
