    Steve Winwood is, and has been, amazing for many decades. As you said, he's known primarily as a vocalist and keyboard player but as you just saw, he's more than proficient on the guitar. He also plays mandolin, drums, bass and saxophone...you know, your classic underachiever. He's had success in multiple bands over the years: The Spencer Davis Group, Traffic, Blind Faith, and then as a solo act. Steve Winwood, in all his incarnations, is a deep rabbit hole that should be explored. Oh, I forgot to mention that he also writes, arranges, and produces a lot of his material.

    Imagine him at 16-17 years old, performing this song back in the 60s. It just seems that, generally speaking, young musicians and artists today don't have this level of sophistication and musical knowledge. He was a musical prodigy, and I don't know when this performance was shot, but he can still deliver!

    Steve Winwood is maybe the most talented artist in Rock History, and that has come from the the likes of Eric Clapton, and many other top Rock stars over the last 50 plus years. A master musician of over 20 different instruments, and a Soulful voice that has been compared to Ray Charles by many. He is a legend. Started out at age 16, when " Spencer Davis Group" asked his parents if Stevie could play with his Band, comprised of grown men in their mid to late 20s. The parents said no, but then relented when they were told how great their young son's (16) voice was, and he'd make a ton of money for everyone. The rest is history. This British Born musical wizard, is a legend.

      I am sorry I totally disagree. Steve Winwood is known for being an amazing guitarist, a virtuoso keyboard player, a composer second to none AND a superb vocalist. If you have followed his career right from Spencer Davis group, to Blind faith, through Traffic (and return to Traffic) and all his solo career ….he is much more than ‘known most for his vocals’…..he is a musician par excellence. Watch him live with Clapton at Maddison Square Gardens….he is the better guitarist, Watch him with Traffic live playing keyboards on ‘Low SPark of High heeled Boys’ or ‘Empty pages’ (he wrote both)…..this man is much more than his amazing vocals. The most underrated musician on the planet…..Winwood is sheer genius

    Steve Winwood is known for his unique soulful voice and tone usually jamming behind his Hammond organ but as you can see he occasionally can rock a Stratocaster with the best of them.
    That man in the end giving it up for Steve and putting his guitar on is the great Eric Clapton. Both were in Blind Faith together early in their careers.

    FYI Steve co-wrote this back in '67. He started out about 1960, From Wiki: "Winwood was a part of the Birmingham blues rock scene, playing the Hammond C-3 organ and guitar, backing blues and rock legends such as Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Howlin' Wolf, B.B. King, Chuck Berry, and Bo Diddley on their United Kingdom tours",

    The band is the touring band for Eric Clapton. This tune is from the "Crossroads Guitar Festival" in 2007. I was fortunate to see Steve and Eric Clapton perform a duet on Dear Mr. Fantasy in 2010. I also saw Steve perform it at a Hard Rock casino in 2012 in a room that held 3,000 at most. Each time he (and Eric) gave a command performance. He blew the roof off the joint!

  • @allendesalme197

    Yes, as those below are writing, he is a keyboardist, but it is mostly on the Hammond B3 with a Leslie going. Sometimes he played a Rhodes. He was in several of the "Supergroups" (Blind Faith and the Spencer Davis group) but his best stuff is with Traffic, in my opinion, (which this song was originally done by) and then his later dance music (Arc of a Diver, The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys, etc). Plenty of really good music.

Check out some Live recordings of him with The Spencer Davis Group at 17 - "I'm A Man", "Gimme Some Lovin'"(he's on the c-3 Hammond and lead vocals). Should've kept the video going as Clapton was about to join in! I've seen them both on guitars doing this song. Always liked this song as it rises in intensity since Traffic came out with it.

    Awesome rendition of this classic song. Yes, he is primarily a piano/keyboards and vocalist, however he does play guitar, and quite well. When he was with Blind Faith he played lot of second guitar to his very good friend Eric Clapton. And if you know Claptons playing styles you can see that Steve has picked up a few things from him. They have collaborated on quite a number of things together. They are as good of a fit together as Eric was with Duane Allman.
