Steve Winwood - Valerie (Live 1983, Tour Rehearsals, Wimbledon, London, UK, May 20)

I do not succumb to peer pressure or popular demands but perhaps it was time to release an Imperial tune that has seen global dominance and traction. It is from the 83 tour rehearsals, the synth solo in the middle is quite funny but gives an overall feel of the tune's structure during the tour.
Enjoy Loud....

This is one of those songs that makes one feel so many dynamic emotions.

Would you have rehearsals of the Alessi brothers Savin The Day ?

Sorry... No!

Peer Pressure? An anti drug song ! Amy Winehouse should of listened.
