From listening to this album, it's hard to believe that Steve Winwood used to be the lead singer for the great 60s rock groups Traffic and The Spencer Davis Group, and while some purists may call him a sellout, there's no denying that whatever kind of music Steve Winwood makes, he can do it good. Bouncy upbeat pop perfect for work, the car, or even just cleaning the house, this album made huge hits out of "Higher Love", "The Finer Things" and the title track, and all three of these (particularly Higher Love), still get played almost daily on adult contemporary radio stations. The slower paced "My Love's Leavin'" is also first-rate.

To get an overview of the music Steve Winwood's been involved with, you have to look at the bands he's been in and the influence they've had.

That's all captured here in an outstanding collection of songs. I think you could debate what to add and what to leave out, but you can't argue that Winwood is an outstanding musician who has been quenching our musical thirsts for years.

This excellent album by Winwood takes us back to the days of the Spencer Davis Group and Traffic. By that I mean it is heavy on the Hammond B3 Organ and percussion. Gone are the "Top Forty" pop hits of the 1980s. This album is the strongest work by Winwood in years and features longer pieces with excellent keyboard work. I am so glad I bought this cd. Everything about it is top notch. Winwood has assembled a group of musicians that contribute strongly to the set. The songs are well written, the guitar and drum work are very good and, above all, Winwood does an incredible job of bringing the B3 organ to the forefront. If you are a Winwwood fan and haven't purchased this album, do so. You will find "About Time" to be the most enjoyable album you have heard in years.

Forget about all of the negative comments appearing here, this is one great collection of music! Of course it is keyboard heavy, but that's what Steve Winwood does best!

The title track is just incredible and "While You see a Chance," one of the most positive set of lyrics penned.

Although these two tracks are undoubtedly the standouts, "Dust", "Slowdown Sundown" and "Second Hand Woman" are also very strong.

If there is a weak track on this disc, it would have to be "Night Train", but even saying that is stretching things. In fact, its' very reminiscent of Warren Zevon's "Nighttime in the Switching Yard" and Bruce Cockburn's same titled track from his "The Charity of Night" release.

All in all, a solid set from Steve Winwood that certainly holds its ... Read More

Roll With It is a song I just enjoy dancing and listening to any time. This is one of his best and still rocks on after some 20 years! There are some other great tracks but Roll With It is the best!!

Steve Winwood's solo career rocketed into the stratosphere following 1986's Grammy darling, "Back in the High Life." That album came four years after "Talking Back To The Night", a collection of ingenious musical conceptions that unfortunately came up a bit short in execution, given their potential. This was preceded by "Arc of a Diver" and the self-titled "Steve Winwood", the former going to #3 on the charts, but the latter a much under-appreciated gem of a solo debut.

So we can clearly see that perhaps Steve and his record producers noticed that there were many new listeners who came in for "Back in the High Life" who were not familiar with his first three albums, and they decided to pick tracks from these, give some them a modern remix, and blend them with selections from "High Life" into a hopefully ...

When Steve Winwood remarked he was returning to his R&B roots on Junction Seven he came close on many of the tracks. When I got the CD I bought it for Plenty Lovin and at first wasn't really impressed with the other tracks. The more you listen to the CD however you begin to realize that there are some great songs that many people have wrote off as some of Winwood's less impressive work. Spy in the House is a fabulous dance song, Angel of Mercy will take you to church and back, Let Your Love Come Down is pure funk fantasy, Real Love is melodic and haunting and Winwood then turns the heat up with a sassy Latin percussion and full horn section on Fill me up. The CD is almost ten years old and it's one of my favorites that seems as fresh today as it was when it first came out. Steve has won a new cadre of fans in Steppers ... Read More

I have Go and Go Live on vinyl. Many years ago a good friend and Stevie Winwood fanatic turned me on to this album. To me it's like the "Lost Pink Floyd" album. Like the sequel to "Dark Side of the Moon." It's every bit as spacey and every bit as well composed and well played (Maybe even better).
I have yet to pick up the complete Go Sessions, but will as soon as the budget allows. I just listened to the LP's the other night after not hearing them in years. They hold up well. This is a "band" I'd love to see reunite and tour!

10.The Finer Things by: Steve Winwood
March 21, 1995
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

>>More Details
Music : The Finer Things
This reminds us how much Steve Winwood did for music & the music industry. Many people are living a comfortable retirement overlooking Haight & Ashbury from the talents of musicians like Steve Winwood. He reminds the old vets of R&R how great he was, even at the young age of The Spencer Davis era, & up to today's new releases. This Box Set repsents those early years & is a great introduction for the ones that weren't born when Dear Mr. Fantasy was the hit song of the season. The sad reminder is how much we lost with the loss of Wood & Capaldi. If you enjoy grass roots music and talent or want to be introduced to it at its best, this CD set is a good start. Its not music hidden or covered up with digital tweeking. This man & his band mambers played "Music" - Not A Computer Software Program that can make any ... Read More
