Steve Winwood
His resume reads like a history of rock & roll: Spencer Davis Group, Blind Faith, Traffic, sessions with everyone from Jimi Hendrix to Lou Reed, and a successful solo career that includes a Grammy and plenty of gold/platinum records. Yet his solo career has always struck me as a disappointment. The albums were too infrequent and failed to capitalize on the superb musicianship that Steve brought to earlier projects. Synthesizers held the songwriter spellbound it seems, and albums like Arc of a Diver and Talking Back to the Night leaned little on Steve's multi-instrumental talents. He has, however, delivered a handful of great songs over the years and one great album, Back In The High Life.
