<p>I've been thinking about increasing my Steve Winwood collection lately, so this timing is pretty good. </p>
<p>SDG - I've heard a couple of their songs recently and they were okay. This one is just okay. It really doesn't sound like him to me, at least not what he sounded like in his famous solo years. </p>
<p>Traffic - Now, this is more like it. I just bought the studio album with this on it a few weeks ago. It will probably make an appearance in AOTW soon. The guitar solo is awesome…</p>

<p>Traffic - Now, this is more like it. I just bought the studio album with this on it a few weeks ago. It will probably make an appearance in AOTW soon. The guitar solo is awesome to listen to. And there is the voice that I'm more familiar with. Dude could/can sing, that's for sure. Really like this one.</p>
<p>BF - This is another nice one. It does sound almost out of key though, like he's having a hard time hitting some of the notes. He looks so young but his voice sounds so old. Man, that guitar playin'...</p>
<p>SW - Ah yes, the pop years. I remember not being much of a Steve Winwood fan when this came out, but I've come to like it much more these days. I remember being sick of hearing the album title. But now I'd like to buy the album. I just read that he performed all of the instruments on the album, a true solo album. He had a pretty good run of four albums in the 80's. Of these to songs, I prefer the former, but the latter isn't bad either. </p>

<p>Nice post Niels. </p>

<p>THE SPENCER DAVIS GROUP - KEEP ON RUNNING<br></br>Looks like a regular Joe straight off the farm, but what a distinct voice! Can’t help but think this would have been a hit in the 80’s had Phil Collins covered it. No idea why that thought came to my mind. That’s the shortest video you’ve ever posted.</p>
<p></p>
<p>TRAFFIC – DEAR MR FANTASY<br></br>I bought few traffic CD’s on a whim because I liked the soundbites and tey were really cheap, glad I did to. The three I picked up are really very good…</p>

<p>TRAFFIC – DEAR MR FANTASY<br/>I bought few traffic CD’s on a whim because I liked the soundbites and tey were really cheap, glad I did to. The three I picked up are really very good but I don’t have this one. Love that guitar, have to take a look at this album soon</p>
<p></p>
<p>BLIND FAITH - SEA OF JOY<br/>This guys a huge part of rock history, I knew that but I’m not sure I really understood that though, watching these makes it clear. As much I liked tis song and video the Traffic song is the one sticking with me now</p>
<p></p>
<p>STEVE WINWOOD - WHILE YOU SEE A CHANCE<br/>This was the only Winwood album I’ve owned for years and years until you all came along, so of course I’m going to like this. It was a very popular song in the states, and frankly the album is good as well.</p>
<p></p>
<p>STEVE WINWOOD - ROLL WITH IT<br/>Overplayed in 1988? You betcha… Sounds good now? You Betchta. I have a couple more of his solo efforts that I’ve not paid enough attention to.</p>
<p><br/>Nice work Niels! So much better than that Euro-MidEvil-NuMetal-Whatever it was stuff…</p>
