| | Winwood is eagerly anticipating the opportunity to present his new band and the vibrant songs that make up the new album. | | | He recorded the album with a new band and eschewed the traditional recording route by recording the songs live in the studio. | | | Beginning with 1977's self-titled album "Steve Winwood," Winwood has embarked upon an extraordinary solo career and has continued his creative evolution. |

| | Winwood began work on what was slated to be his first solo LP, but he gradually brought in more ex-Traffic members to help him out, to the point where the album simply became a band reunion. | | | When Winwood finally returned with his self-titled solo debut in 1977, Britain was in the midst of the punk revolution, and the music itself was somewhat disappointing even to Winwood himself. | | | Taking more time to craft his next album, Winwood didn't return until 1986, with an album of slickly crafted, sophisticated pop called Back in the High Life, which was his first '80s album to feature outside session musicians. |

Eric Clapton solos briefly on the bouncy "You Are The One," and George Harrison joins Clapton on "Oh Lord, Why Lord." Other guests include Roscoe Gee and Mick Ralphs. | | | The band is Winwood, Capaldi, and Wood; Hood and Hawkins: and Barry Beckett, who ably recreates the keyboard parts that Winwood double-tracked on the studio albums. | | | Commercially, this was Winwood's least successful album of the 80s, and afterwards Winwood stayed out of the studio for an unprecedented four years. |

| | Steve Winwood Discography |
| | Steve Winwood's resume reads like a history of rock & roll: Spencer Davis Group, Blind Faith, Traffic, sessions with everyone from Jimi Hendrix to Lou Reed, and a successful solo career that includes a Grammy and plenty of gold/platinum records. | | | The albums were too infrequent and failed to capitalize on the superb musicianship that Steve brought to earlier projects. | | | Synthesizers held the songwriter spellbound it seems, and albums like Arc of a Diver and Talking Back to the Night leaned little on Steve's multi-instrumental talents. |

| | Winwood's influence now extends over more than 30 years and speaks to several generations of pop, rock and R&B fans and music makers. | | | After 1990's Refugees of the Heart and some extensive international touring to support the album, Winwood took a break from his solo career to join with former Traffic colleague and writing partner Jim Capaldi on Far From Home. | | | From the critical acclaim afforded 1981's Arc of a Diver (a tour de force featuring "While You See a Chance") to the triple Grammy-winning, multi-platinum Back in the High Life (and its smash hit singles "Higher Love" and the title track), to the R&B celebration of Roll With It (with its No. 1 title song). |

| | JR.com: Steve Winwood - About Time [DualDisc] in Music: Pop: |
| | Even if singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Steve Winwood's career began with his solo recordings, he'd still be regarded as a major musical figure. | | | Though Winwood's previous solo album, 1997's JUNCTION SEVEN, was a much slicker affair, the roots of ABOUT TIME lay in the presence of the earlier album's guitarist Jose Neto and percussionist Walfredo Reyes, and particularly the JUNCTION SEVEN track "Got To Get Back To My Baby," which foreshadowed ABOUT TIME's Latin-influenced, heavily percussive direction. | | | While his group efforts mixed jazz, folk, blues, and rock, Winwood concentrated on a more accessible, pop/R&B-oriented style on his smash '80s solo albums, garnering huge hits with his percolating, high-gloss, synth-based sound. |
