Steve Winwood is just a musical genius. He was a child prodigy and so good that he was playing professionally when he was only in his early teens. From the Spencer Davis Group, to Traffic, Blind Faith, and his solo albums, he has had an incredible musical career.
He is 40 here, he started when he was 15 with the Spencer Davis Group with classics I’m a man and Gimme some Lovin’ then went psychedelic with Traffic thru mid 70s then reinvented himself in 80s more than once incorporating synthesizers and other recording techniques. A monster talent!
Dont forget his time with the short lived supergroup Blind Faith.... Cant Find My Way Home is one of the most beautiful songs ever written imo
Cullen Donnelly yes seven decades now, too much to report. His two studio albums in 2000s are real good
@@pbeadsnyc1014 completely agree.... one of the greatest musical talents ever
@Dan Thomas Winwood wasnt in Derek and the Dminos.... Clapton was
@Dan Thomas Come on, man.
Steve Winwood has a huge catalog. Starting when he was a teenager. He's over 70 and still touring.
He's still spot on.....Nice! ☮️❤️☮️
Steve Winwood has so many good songs that'll blow your socks off ie Higher Love
This guy has soul coming out of everywhere. Even when he started out as a teenager, he was playing and writing R&B. You either have it, or you don't, and he has it.
He has such a great voice.
Steve Winwood is fantastic!.... He has a huuuge catalog.
Woo Hoo!! ONe of the BEST of all time. When Steve Winwood first broke onto the music scene, people who had only heard his voice before were shocked to later find out that he's actually a white boy!
blueyzblue the Spencer Davis Group showcased Winwoods early talent, I’m a man, Presence of the Lord w/Blind Faith mmmm🎶
@@tinypurplefishesrunlaughin8052 Yes! We did choreographed dance routines to The Spencer Davis Group's Gimme Some Lovin' in our high school All Stars stage production! Lol good times...
blueyzblue Those days ain’t comin’ back, man o man one of the few times when I knew “We had it good” at the very moment it reverberated through our lifetime for the first time!!!! Check out a forgotten jewel ; 🎵 “Reflections of my life”. 🎶 by Marmalade, It appears to be from an early variety show, possibly Ed Sullivan. It’ll take ya back.
The kind of song that that makes you move as soon as you hear the first few notes, Love it!
Lyrics, beat, tempo, vocals, the artistry of all musicians, EVERYTHING about this song brings me up!
His biggest commercial hit was “Higher Love”. If you haven’t reacted to that, it’s a must.
Fun fact #1- Chaka Khan does backing vocals on “Higher Love.
Fun fact #2 - “Higher Love” by Steve Winwood won him his very first (and second) Grammy of his career. He’d been in the music business for 20 years, and in 1987 (for the 1986 year) he won his very first (and second) Grammy, for “Best Pop Vocal Performance - Male” and “Record of the Year (Higher Love)”.
Higher Love was #1 for a week. This spent 4 weeks there! Billboard and Casey Kasem top 40 listener
@@blackamerican40 Preach!
love that song
Actually his first #1 was "Gimme` Some Lovin" when he was in the band The Spencer Davis Group in 1967. He and his brother Muff wrote the song and it hit the #2 spot on the UK charts and #7 in the U.S... Steve Winwood sings lead vocals for that group too.
Winwood was a session musician at a very young age for Muddy Waters, Otis Spann, etc etc in Birmingham, England.
This song has so much flavor. Such a jam.
His Album "Arc of a Diver" resurrected, his career in 1980...Even though I was living in Japan at the time, and didn't have access to a lot of new music at the time, i found this album at a record store and wore that wax smooth. Then he shot to the top of the charts with a Solo career...worth a deep dive if you want or desire artistry and talent.
"Valerie" and "Back In The High Life Again" are 2 more very excellent Steve Winwood songs.
In all the years Steve Winwood has been around, his singing voice has never changed. An incredible voice and a very under rated guitar player, we already know about his keyboard playing
Winwood was in the band Traffic. Listen to John Barleycorn Must Die. It was a poem written by Robert Burns.
Steve Winwood (formerly Stevie Winwood when he first got famous at age 15) is very well known, and especially within the music community. A major star, highly respected since the 1960s. There's an early film of him singing just like Ray Charles at age 15. It's stunning.
Finally get to share this groove with all of you. Yes yes yes
I've loved Steve Winwood from the first time I heard him. Great musican!! Thanks for including him
I love this song. I was so lucky growing up to be able to turn on a radio or put on an album and listen to some of the best music written - ever.
Huge fan of Steve Winwood ...Thanks for sharing....God Bless
I get the feeling of old Motown R&B from this song...loud & clear. LOVE it!!
This song actually charted on the Motown hit list .
@@marceldagenais1893 Wow...I did not know that. And I'm from Deeetroit 😊
Spencer Davis group, Derick and the Doninos, Traffic, Steve Winwood Solo....He's a mega star and living legend. In the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and one of my favs. Thanks for the reaction.
My favorite Winwood period is his time with Traffic and Blind Faith. Crazy talented and inspired.
Durn it. Have to wait 24 hours to roll with it. The video is perfect for the song. I been to places like that in my young and foolish days.
This dance style is called "The Stroll", a rated R version that we did in the 80s but was popular in the 50s and early 60s
Steve Winwood has sung with so many musicians it would be impossible for me to list them. He is never surrounded with less than excellent musicians, and often with legendary ones.
One of my favorite songs of all time. Loved to dance to it and did for hours. Roll with it might be my philosophy of how to get through rough times.
My work out a.m. in ‘88. Woke up everyone in my condo.
LOVE THIS SONG! 💜 POSITIVE ROLL WITH IT SONG! ME AND MY SISTER'S USED TO DANCE TO THIS SONG, YOU CAN'T SIT STILL WHEN YOU HEAR IT!🎼🎵🎶💜💯🎵🎼🎶🎵
"While still a pupil at Great Barr School, Winwood was a part of the Birmingham rhythm and blues scene, playing the Hammond C-3 organ and guitar, backing blues singers such as Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, T-Bone Walker, Howlin' Wolf, B.B. King, Sonny Boy Williamson II, Eddie Boyd, Otis Spann, Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley on their United Kingdom tours, the custom at that time being for US singers to travel solo and be backed by pick-up bands." Here he is as a teenager doing one of Spencer Davis Group's biggest hit, "Gimme Some Lovin' " ruclips.net/video/xcxYX8KPhGk/видео.html He joined the band at 14 and started performing at 8. All info from Wikpedia. Here he is at 15 sounding like RAY CHARLES!!! ruclips.net/video/VwqsmNR_Q1M/видео.html
Nice comment. A real education. TY for the links too.
One of the many songs from the 80’s. “Higher Love” is one of my hubby’s fav songs.
I had a love/hate relationship with this song. I was a working Mom (of a 3 year old) and wife and I had a clock radio alarm. This song came on for weeks right when I was getting up (I’m not a morning person). I used to hate hearing roll with it baby when all I wanted to do was sleep a little longer! Years later, I love it for the soulful voice of Steve Winwood. It’s a great song, just not every morning first thing! Great reaction!
No he's HUGE. He started in his early teens. He was (is) considered a musical prodigy
I Love you doctor!!! Thanx for standing up for the Babies!!!!...........also LOVE your ability to take in older music. My wife is behind me saying WE LOVE YOU DR TY!!!
It has that old school touch of rock and dancin’ and groovin’. Stevie Winwood is a man full of blue-eyed soul. Him and Eric Clapton are buds and Stevie has toured with Clapton, more than once. And he is recognized by his peers more so than the public, or so it seems (my opinion). Anyway, I have been a fan of Stevie since the 70’s. I love that RUclips allows me to revisit favorite artists over and over. 👍🏼
Super musician, vocalist, and composer. He can play every instrument on the stage. Started out at age 17, in Britain as a teenager, and never looked back.
This song was in a movie that changed my life called "Short Time" starring the great Dabney Coleman. It's about a risk adverse police detective who thinks he's got a fatal illness just days out from retirement so he tries to die in the line of duty to leave something for his son...and finally learns how to live in the process! Believe it or not is was a comedy and one of the best I ever saw! Check it out sir.
Love Stevie Winwood, fab musician, love his voice, been going since forever
oh yessss........ this is one of my most favorite songs of all time. whenever i get stressed out, frustrated, etc., i can go to this song , and remember to "just roll with it , baby" , and this calms me down and it gets better.
This reminded me of the row house clubs in North Philly. The narrow basement you enter by a side door, Mom cookin' in the kitchen inna back, live music, no A/C, and when you left, the sun had already come up.
another classic for me.....great dance music...get up and boogie...
I want this played at my life celebration! Along with Dancing on the Ceiling.
Wow...I worked in London when this came out... My mate Roger had it on his Walkman all day at work.... Then out in the pub,,on the jukebox... Excellent choice young man
The video is great by itself too. You want to be at that bar listening to the musicians and dancing with the other patrons.
One of the best
Brilliant song, superbly used in Nuns On The Run movie.
This song reminds me of seeing Steve Winwood making a comeback. Empty Pages from his group Traffic is a good older one. He’s been around a long time.
A fabulous song. I love you too 🤗💕
You know you want to get up and dance!! DO IT!!
Excellent one of my Favorites!!! thank you!!!
When life is too much. Roll with it baby!
This is just the best song, moving and grooving. The horns are blasting. The message is perfect for today. One of my favorite songs of the era
I've been a fan of Steve Winwood since I was younger..
If you liked this song then I would suggest his songs; "Higher Love" and "Valerie."
Back when he was in his teens As Stevie Winwood, he is the one who did the lead vocals and play the organ on the song Gimme Some Lovin. By the time of his seventh solo album called Junction 7, he worked with an R&B producer and on the credits to that album he thanked Jesus personally. Very positive artist with some great philosophical lyrics. You should check out his catalog for sure!
I really like this song 😁👍 brings back memories. Like your reaction Ty 👏
Great music!! Rock & Soul combined!! Steve Winwood one heck of a SINGER...Love the horns in this song ❤❤❤❤
This song came out in 1988 and sounding like 'Dirty Dancing' which came the year before in 1987. Steve Winwood did had a major hit and was 'Bring Me A Higher Love' from 1986. Great childhood memories! :)
my favorite songs from him are Valerie and higher love
Wow! look who surfaced
Valerie for sure. I also like Back in the high life and when you see a chance.
This song hit and hit hard. People walked around thinking Steve was a new artist. I remember this song and Higher Love hitting and smirking, telling these people....got back to the 60’s and check out Traffic and Blind Faith!
Steve Winwood, my brother's favourite in the 80's...man, we used to stay up all night singing Roll with it!!! Thanks Bro! 😍🇧🇻😍
The long instrumental intro version is great while driving! Killer!
He's also a very accomplished guitar player. Two of the bands he was in were Traffic and Blind Faith, both very good!
My Brotha the first time I herd this song I was on a small island in the middle of the South Pacific drinking rum and coconut milk on a deserted beach G/O Days
Far from it Steve Winwood is one of the most beloved keyboardist, guitarist who has been around for many years he got his fame being in the yardbirds, Spencer Davis Group, traffic and Blind Faith before going solo and he started at age fifteen when he was in the yardbirds.
Speaking of his soulful voice, listen to his teenage years with the 'Spenser Davis Group'.
'Gimme Some Login' or ' I'm a Man'.
Steve and Erics' concert at Madison Square Gardens is a must watch.
Winsod can And has played just about every instrument as he does in this video , not just a gimmick! Many great songs from The Spencer Davis group to Traffic to Blind faith with Clapton to his single hits
Winwood was a genius
How could you not GET INTO THIS???
I was sitting on my bed watching this and still able to rock it out. I may be older than dirt but I've still gotta few moves left. I was watching BET with my daughter once and of course I had to get up. My daughter wants to know how I learned to dance like that. From watching them of course. Maybe it's just " Blue Eyed Soul" . Actually I'm green eyed 🙂) , I heard you say your not African American. Your black. Most southerners have some black dna. I have that and maybe a little more.than most ❤️✌️
Great Blues and a great video I loved it
Always loved Steve Winwood a genius in The Spencer Davis Group..since hearing Higher Love i raced out and bought the album and still have it, a great talent Thanks for the reaction,
Keep Strong Keep Safe My Dear Friend
I absolutely love this song & many other songs by Steve Winwood . I danced to the song when it came out but not like in the video I was too young for that at that time
I really like Steve Winwood, i love from when he was with Spencer Davis group, Im a Man! But this just reminds me of the 80’s, this was almost overplayed but its a goodie. I got to see him once when he joined Billy Joel at the last concert ever given at Shea Stadium & he was great! 🖤
caralayne503 The “Arc of a diver” album is glorious to absorb time n time again, the mood and ambiance it creates makes a person feel the room. 10 listens later you’ll love it more.
This song rocks. That beackbeat is locked in tight. The song super reminds me of like an 80s movie intro; like the beginning credits scene of someone like driving through a city like some comedy with some big shot character driving in a fancy convertible sports car looking fly with shades on.
Blue eyed soul at it's finest. Watch "Finer Things" - black & white video on Steve Winwood's channel and see his cool band get down.
This music video was directed by David Fincher who would go on to make movies like Se7en, Fight Club and The Social Network.
Steve is underrated. Love the beat and that's getting down music. Got this on cassette lol. Need to bump it up to a CD.
Anything Steve Winwood is GREAT!!!!
Check out 'Steve Winwood at 15 yrs old' video of him on the piano/singing a Ray Charles cover.
I remember this playing on MTV back in the day
Look him up under Blind Faith, Traffic. Steve is amazing!
NIce I love that you do loads of different genres and styles, Winwood is a great vocalist, brilliant voice, check out his early Spencer Davis Group stuff, I love that era of his stuff
I haven’t seen this video in a long time, but I was just thinking exactly the same thing you were though. The dancing reminds me of Soul Train and would fit in a movie like “Dirty Dancing”. Great reaction again Ty 👍🏻🥰‼️
I’m not laughing Bill. I still have cassettes and a cassette player in my old boom box. I still listen to the tapes while I’m doing dishes, etc.
his instrumentation is always ahead of it's time...
Hell man he made music with like 4 or 5 top groups then a long successful solo career. Something like six decades, nothing but NET !
He's got some great songs. This song was definitely played at a lot of weddings back in the day. Check out "Valerie" next, you will definitely recognize the chorus part :)
Mr. Fantasy,is an awesome tune by Steve,also night train
Excellent analysis! Serious old school R&B record ala Sam & Dave
He had it good for several years. This song is classic
Saw him in the 90's in Las Vagas, with Traffic opening for The Grateful Dead, Traffic came to a Dead Stop at the Sam Boyd Stadium!
Look up his earlier years when he was in the group traffic "dear mr fantasy" the live version he was chilled !! He was 16 then.
The place they used gives me a feel of an updated version of dockery farm
Steve never had that crazy flamboyant rock life, that may be a part of the reason why he was not as big as people think he should have been.
60s had such good music
I hate to pee on your parade but that's how we were dancing in the clubs back then. The dance moves you see were dances we did in the 80s and Roll with It was often played in the clubs and we all got on the dance floor and rolled with it. Everybody got into it and we had a blast. It's kind of sad that it's not done like that anymore. As for the Dirty Dancing reference I understand why you thought it, but the music was very different in the 50s and 60s then it was in the 80s and much of the dance moved they used in the movie were 80s dances, not 50s and 60s dances. Which is why they called it Dirty Dancing, because had they been dancing that way it would have been too dirty for mainstream dance clubs.
And trust me, Steve Winwood was anything but "Under rated or Under Appreciated." He was at the top of his game and had several #1 hits in the 80s. The only people that would say something like that would be those who weren't even born yet in the 80s. They may think he's under rated by today's standards but not then. I have all of Steve Winwoods original CD's from the 80s still in my CD collection.
He was with Traffic before going solo....and Spencer Davis group...
and Blind Faith!
Steve's been around a long time! Hes got a lot of ties to Muscle Shoals Alabama music scene.
I love how at around 1:54, he about to double down widdit
This is a great album too.
