Steve Winwood first captured the public's imagination as a teenage prodigy with the Spencer Davis Group in the mid-1960s, churning out hits like "Gimme Some Lovin'" and "I'm a Man." His formidable talent as both a vocalist and multi-instrumentalist soon steered him towards new creative ventures, notably the formation of Traffic. Alongside fellow luminaries like Jim Capaldi, Chris Wood, and Dave Mason, Traffic melded rock, jazz, and folk elements into a fluid and compelling sound, yielding classics such as "Dear Mr. Fantasy" and "The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys."
