Jesu# H. Christ-I’ve been listening to Slow Hand and Winwood for a long time but I don’t know how this one got by me for so long. The best song I’ve ever heard. What fucking Magic these two make together... There needs to be more of this musical excellence in our world. This is musical gold with some platinum mixed in just for the hell of it. If you don’t like this, you’re fucking dead!
more than 50 years ago, when I was young I heard and bought both Clapton and Winwood at the same time because I liked the album covers. Needless to say I was changed forever...Ruint as my mom would say.
Carlos N …………… 'Ruint' in a good way ! I was 'ruint' by hearing John Mayall's Bluesbreakers w/ Eric Clapton, and took up the harmonica . Pro harp player for 35+ years now .
Steve Winwood is perfect for the part, with his vocal range, but I also miss the sort of almost desperate longing, Whitlock's voice expressed. Clapton also had that much more, originally, but things like that are hard or even impossible to recapture. Very adequate and firm update, though.
