I touched base with Dolette recently, bests regards to Eugenia, I relish the crew meals with you guys and when you gave out tour bonuses, you did it personally, you didn't pass on the job to the accountant.

I applaud you sir. Stevie Winwood and his music has supported my days and life's experiences since being a much younger pup to a 63 yo today.. Thinking we're both better off today just pausing for a while Mr John Leahey and listening to Stevie's music and forgetting the turmoils occurring outside of our homes. Best regards from Dallas Texas US sir and please be safe with your families. I'd wish to raise a pint with you sir if ever possible..

      @@m.a.c.8366How wonderful to hear from you, M.A.C. To my young ears then , SW was the vocal, and keys. Both so brilliant. Keep on Runnin', Somebody Help Me, and others, challenged my young guitar fingers...and then came Traffic, and Medicated Goo et al. My young band fragmented in 1969, but Blind Faith beckoned, and I'm still trying to find my way home. John Barleycorn helps sometimes. SW has of course repercharged over the years, sometimes, and to me, it's so exciting...every time.
      But despite his seeming creative absences, there is never a gap for me at least. He strikes me as a humble, but deeply talented musician, artist and person. I have seen him play live but once, here on Queensland, just a few years ago with Steely Dan. He sits deeply with me. Still, he isnt alone. Gordon Lightfoot, Carly Simon, Paul Simon, Ian Anderson, Carlos Santana and many, many others also sit strongly in my life.
      We live on a world of so many travel barriers, but maybe one day , where I now live on the Gold Coast in Australia, might be a tad closer to Dallas....and that pint. Take care. John

    Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.
    2 In the grave they laid Him, Love who men had slain,
    Thinking that He never would awake again,
    Laid in the earth like grain that sleeps unseen:
    Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.
    3 Forth He came at Easter, like the risen grain,
    He who for three days in the grave had lain;
    Quick from the dead my Risen Lord is seen:
    Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.
    4 When our hearts are wintry, grieving, or in pain,
    Thy touch can call us back to life again,
    Fields of our hearts that dead and bare have been:
    Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.

      Unfortunately, money fuels the trucks, pays the crew, rents sound and lights, money pays for rental venues, money pays for electricity, money pays for hotels. Small venues are for artists who have no following. I worked the "A" market concert touring business for 23 years and toured with Steve. I am not convinced you understand the cost accounting associated with concert touring. Best regardz!

Loved Traffic, one of my favourites. Winwood/Capaldi, I remember, wrote songs together, on my first Traffic lp I bought, the band on cover, one of the guys pointing his finger. "Someone is crying to be heard", on the record. Also Have Blind Faith lp. Must get them out and listen again, it been a long time. Roy b, CapeTown south africa 🇿🇦

    I imagine his family is cherishing capturing these songs Steve is performing out in the middle of the family farm - for their own personal library - while sharing with the world. He is an English country farmer that just happens to be one of the musical greats. I love his recordings out in Cotswolds, the one by the crackling fire. The only thing missing is some farm animals - maybe the next one.
