Steve Winwood on CBS Sunday morning

[skeith]

It was yesterday and they showed him at his estate outside London.

I love the guy.

He sits down at the B3 organ and plays the opening notes from some Jimmy Smith riff...wish I could remember which one.

I saw it.

He's a survivor.

Winwood's a bad dude. That last record he put out with just a quartet (organ, guitar, drums, and percussion) is a fantastic CD. And he can sing his ass off.

Wish I could've seen the segment.

It was cool to see, and yeah, that album is great. Funnily I had just finished listening to "Shootout at the Fantasy Factory" before the "Sunday" show came on.

I saw the piece - very interesting. Did they say his estate is outside London? I've heard that he lives in Kentucky (married a Kentucky girl).

did he do Higher Love?

I remember first seeing him with the Spencer Davis group at the Twisted Wheel club in Manchester around 1964. He was only a kid but everyone could tell he just had a special magic, he played piano and sang like a veteran soul man even back then. After that I never missed a chance to see him live.

i see you mentioned jimmy, but just so you know Winwood knows about allll those blue note/prestige, etc B3 players.

[Jim Alfredson]

BFrank, thanks for posting that! It's great news that he's working on a new record.

I remember the first time I heard "Give Me Some Loving" on the radio. Oh man that just flat blew me away!!! I was in Fort Collins last weekend and I picked up the 2cd edition of the most recent cd. In case you weren't aware the second side is a dual disc. I can't wait to hear and see it!!!

Yeah, BFrank, thanks I really enjoyed reading something positive about the music biz, and about Steve Winwood.
