      Couldn't agree with you more, been a BRUMMIE, myself he's a humble man, and never looks for recognition, respected by all true musicians and possibly the most talented out of the bunch, JACK BRUCE, CLAPTON, GINGER BAKER, JEFF BECK, as the man was a fantastic piano player. ONLY MY OWN OPINION, 👍👍👍

I did however notice he tuned his guitar a full step down for that 'cause maybe his voice is a tiny bit lower 'cause of aging vocal chords or something...

    Cycling one day last year around where I live here in the UK, I came across these two guys leaning on a gate looking at some land chatting away. Getting closer I recognised one of them to be the one and only Stevie Winwood. Knowing he lived in this area, I guessed this must be part of his land and he was probably discussing farm business. As I passed I nodded and said, "Morning Mr Winwood, lovely land almost a fantasy" and gave a wink! He looked up but said nothing, just nodded and grinned........Made my day.

    I think he's a great example of someone who plays "within himself" if you will. He's obviously very talented, but he seems less impressed with amazing licks and more about creating a feeling, a solo, a build of emotions and feelings and head shaking and damn! Awesome stuff.

    Steve Winwood is een van mijn muzikanten die ik bewonder omdat ze door allerlei drugs verleidingen in het zadel
    zijn gebleven, nu in deze tijd hun muzikale sporen hebben verdiend vooral omdat ze van de natuur konden genieten,
    kortom ze hebben veel uit de 60 en 70 jaren meegemaakt, maar zijn nooit ten onder gegaan omdat hun liefde voor
    de natuur hem en vele andere uit deze mooie tijdsperiode toch de overhand gaf om naar het ware terug te keren namelijk
    de natuur. De zwakke broeders in deze jaren kwamen er niet meer uit door hun gemis en achtergrond die ik absoluut
    niet veroordeel.

    Saw him with Traffic at Winterland in SF. I will never forget that concert, and I saw many there. It started in the dark, with random notes being played by the band. Then, somehow the notes gradually morphed into the beginning of Low Spark of High Heeled Boys. Stevie had a way of playing that was so melodic. His notes were few, but put together so beautifully. You didn’t want the song to stop! We do not see talent like that today.
