Steve Winwood Artist Snapshot:

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. The fact that the spent most of the '60s and '70s making history with the Spencer Davis Group, Traffic, and Blind Faith should stir up even more respect for the British blue-eyed soul singer's accomplishments. 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. The turn of the century, however, saw him getting back to basics and rocking out on the Hammond Organ over funky Latin-tinged grooves on 2003's aptly titled ABOUT TIME.

CMJ (1/5/04, p.8) - Ranked #13 in CMJ's "Top 20 Most-Played Albums of 1981"

Title Note

Solo performer: Steve Winwood (vocals, various instruments).

Recorded at Netherturkdonic Studios, England.

With a glorious voice that sounds as if he has just swallowed a jar of cod liver oil, Winwood has the advantage of instant recognition; add to this a musicianship that has been employed in dozens of sessions over the past four decades, and the result is a prodigious talent that runs like a vein of gold through rock music since the Spencer Davis Group. Arc Of A Diver, released at the end of 1980 after a long period of self-imposed retreat, is a triumphant resurgence. With lyrical contributions by Viv Stanshall (the rich imagery of the title track) and Will Jennings, Winwood never falls into the trap of shaming the music with sub-standard words. Another musical genius.
