Traffic - State Of Grace 7:17 12. Steve Winwood - Why Can't We 6:42 Live Together 13. Steve Winwood - Domingo Morning 5:08 Release Notes: -------- It was Steve WinwoodÆs bluesy holler û weathered beyond his tender years and sounding like he hailed from Birmingham, Alabama rather than Birmingham, England û that gave The Spencer Davis Group the edge over all the other British Invasion groups plying sweaty, R&B-indebted rockÆnÆroll in the 1960s. Their Keep On Running û a stomping blast of Stax-style soul û scored 17-year-old Winwood his first number one single in 1965, beginning a career that would see him scooping up Grammy Awards 20 years later and û thanks to Eric PrydzÆs cheesy Call On Me remodelling of WinwoodÆs 1987 hit Valerie û topping the singles charts as recently as 2004. Revolution opens with Keep On Running, and further essays WinwoodÆs tenure with Spencer Davis via self-penned hits like Gimme Some LovinÆ and the fearsomely funky, Hammond-drenched IÆm a Man, both authentic enough to become R&B standards in their own right. The precocious singer was restless, however, moving on in 1967 to form Traffic, whose ambitious fusion of rock, psychedelia, folk and jazz reflected the mind-expanding times, showcasing WinwoodÆs growing sophistication as both performer and songwriter. No longer merely aping his R&B heroes, he was now delivering darkly powerful blues jams (Dear Mr Fantasy) and sitar-driven episodes of paranoid acid-rock (the eerie, still-chilling Paper Sun). Traffic eventually burned out in the mid-70s, and a newly-solo Winwood struggled at first to recover his groove; early solo hit While You See a Chance finds him toying with earnest pop melodies and synthesisers, but feels cloying and sentimental, like a bad sitcom theme. 1985Æs triple Grammy-winning Back In the High Life album struck a better balance between his blues roots and the kind of lucrative, expertly-tailored AOR contemporaries like Eric Clapton and Phil Collins were then making. The gospel-tinged Higher Love (featuring Chaka Khan) is fittingly ecstatic 80s blue-eyed soul, while the title-track, aided by James Taylor, is a movingly-optimistic midlife rumination, Winwood reaching pop maturity with a grace that eluded many of his contemporaries. Dirty City, a slow-burning, bluesy jam with Clapton from 2008, rounds out the solo set, and finds WinwoodÆs fire commendably undimmed 40 years on. The four-CD box-set version of Revolutions examines his back-catalogue in great depth, but a simultaneously released 16-track single-CD package is faultless, racing through the highlights with the pace of a tightly-scripted Hollywood biopic.
