Steve Windwood - Can't Find My Way Home

in #music6 years ago (edited)

This song is a Blind Faith song from the late 60s. For those who aren't familiar with Blind Faith - it was a power group with Windwood , Clapton and Ginger Baker - who put out one fantastic album.

I love to see my old heroes on YouTube - I never got a chance to see what they looked like when I was learning their songs.

Steve Windwood is known for his work with Traffic and songs like "Dear Mr Fantasy" and "Higher Love". In this video he uses a roaring fire in the background as the percussion. Its a simple "D walk down" with an F and a G.. Steve's vocal is still spot on even after the decades of singing.

I wish every musician would put out videos like this one!

Ryan Geddes is an entreprenuer located in Toronto Canada. When he's not writing, hes helping with House&Canvas Furniture Paint.

I freaking love Steve Winwood. Very classy uplifting music, another one from the way back machine that I think is underrated by him is the song Valerie.

He could play and sing realllly nice.. Totally underrated in my opinion!

Have you ever heard the Swans cover of this off of their album This Burning World? They are generally known for being a brutally loud industrial kind of band but that album is an outlier in their discography, focusing on an atmospheric folk vibe. I highly recommend giving it a listen.

fantastic playing

Steve Winwood is great. Love that voice. Thanks for sharing @rgeddes
