2 2 CAREER

What’s Shakin'. Winwood co-wrote and recorded the hits"Gimme Some Lovin'" and "I'm a Man" before leavingthe Spencer Davis Group. Winwood met drummer JimCapaldi, guitarist Dave Mason, and multi-instrumentalistChris Wood when they jammed together at The ElbowRoom, a club in Aston, Birmingham.[12] After Winwoodleft the Spencer Davis Group in April 1967, the quar-tet formed Traffic.[13] Soon thereafter, they rented a cot-tage near the rural village of Aston Tirrold, Berkshire(now Oxfordshire) to write and rehearse new music.[12]The period at the cottage proved important in the band’sdevelopment.[14]

Early in Traffic’s formation, Winwood and Capaldiformed a songwriting partnership, with Winwood writ-ing music to match Capaldi’s lyrics. This partnership wasthe source of most of Traffic’s material, including popularsongs such as "Paper Sun" and "The Low Spark of High-Heeled Boys", and outlived the band, producing severalsongs for Winwood and Capaldi’s solo albums. Over theband’s history, Winwood performed the majority of theirlead vocals, keyboard instruments, and guitars. He alsofrequently played bass and percussion up to and includingthe recording sessions for their fourth album.

2.2 Blind Faith and Traffic

Winwood with Traffic

Winwood formed the supergroup Blind Faith in 1969with Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker and Ric Grech.[15] Theband was short-lived owing to Clapton’s greater interest in

Blind Faith’s opening act Delaney & Bonnie & Friends—Clapton left the band at tour’s end. However, Baker,Win-wood and Grech stayed together to form Ginger Baker’sAir Force. The lineup consisted of 3/4 of Blind Faith(without Clapton, whowas replaced byDenny Laine), 2/3of Traffic (Winwood and Chris Wood, minus Capaldi)plus musicians who interacted with Baker in his earlydays, including Phil Seamen, HaroldMcNair, John Bloodand Graham Bond. However, the project turned out to bejust another short-lived one. Winwood soon went intothe studio to begin work on a new solo album, tenta-tively titledMad Shadows. However, Winwood ended upcalling in Wood and Capaldi to help with session work,which prompted Traffic’s comeback album John Barley-corn Must Die in 1970. In 1972, Winwood recorded thepart of Captain Walker in the highly successful orchestralversion of TheWho's Tommy. He recorded a 1973 albumwith Remi Kabaka, Aiye-Keta, for Antilles Records, andin 1976 provided vocals and keyboards on Go, a conceptalbum by Japanese composer Stomu Yamashta. In 1976,Winwood also played guitar on the Fania All Stars’ Deli-cate and Jumpy record and performed as a guest with theband in their only UK appearance, a sold-out concert atthe Lyceum Theatre, London.

2.3 Solo career

Weariness with the grind of touring and recordingprompted Winwood to leave Traffic and retire to ses-sioning for some years.[16] Under pressure from IslandRecords, he resurfaced with his self-titled first solo al-bum in 1977. This was followed by his 1980 hit Arc of aDiver (which included his first solo hit, "While You See aChance") and Talking Back to the Night in 1982. Both al-bums were recorded at his home in Gloucestershire withWinwood playing all instruments. He continued to dosessions during this period, and in 1983 he co-producedand played on Jim Capaldi's top 40 hit "That’s Love" andco-wrote the Will Powers top 20 hit "Kissing with Con-fidence".In 1986 he moved to New York. There he enlisted thehelp of a coterie of stars to record Back in the High Life inthe US, and the album was a hit. He topped the BillboardHot 100 with "Higher Love", and earned two GrammyAwards: for Record of the Year and Best Male Pop VocalPerformance. Winwood embarked on an extensive tourof North America in support of the album.[17]

All these albums were released on Island Records. How-ever, at the peak of his commercial success, Winwoodmoved to Virgin Records and released Roll with It andRefugees of the Heart. The album Roll with It and the ti-tle track hit #1 on the USA album and singles charts in thesummer of 1988. Another album with Virgin, Far fromHome, was officially credited to Traffic, but nearly all theinstruments were played by Winwood. Despite lackinga significant hit, it broke the top 40 in both the UK andUSA.[18][19] His final Virgin album Junction Seven also

broke the UK top 40,[20] but was Winwood’s first com-mercial flop in the United States.A new studio album, Nine Lives, was released 29April 2008 by Wincraft Music through ColumbiaRecords.[21][22] The album opened at #12 on theBillboard200 album chart,[23] his highest US debut ever. In 2008,he was awarded an honorary doctorate from the BerkleeCollege of Music to add to his honorary degree fromAston University, Birmingham. On 28March 2012Win-wood was one of Roger Daltrey's special guest stars for“An Evening with Roger Daltrey and Friends” gig, in aidof the Teenage Cancer Trust at the Royal Albert Hall. In2013 Winwood toured North America with Rod Stewartas part of the “Live the Life” tour. In 2014, Winwoodtoured North America with Tom Petty & The Heart-breakers.

It spent five weeks at #1 on the UKsingles chart. Winwood heard an early version of Prydz’sremix and liked it so much, he not only gave permissionto use the song, he re-recorded the samples for Prydz touse.[25]
