@frase1234- that's not Wurlitzer (junk)!!! Srry but the only Organ in the world wen ya gonna be a STAR Is a HAMMOND B-3 an that's what one looks like(only drive shaft driven keyboard out there, ya start it almost like a car-turn on starter count to 8 turn On switch n let go of starte switch. Driveshaft keeps gears all going at same speed so never goes out of tune) An that sound is one of a kind
Winwood was awesome as a 15 year boy......His voice was the magic that made the Spencer davis Band .......in 64/65/66 I went to every gig I could around their hometown of Birmingham. he never surpassed this early versatility for me ....but is still a genius.
@tellarjj ...yeah ok whateva... this was taken on a camcorder, look at most recordings of major rock concerts taken on camcorder, on you tube, the singing always sounds poor.
The fact is Winwood is a fecking legend, the big daddy of blue eyed soul, and if you ever went to one of his concerts you would be awe struck. Clapton says this bloke is his hero. That says it all. Now back away from the Winwood.
@firefighterno1 You know Winwood is Big Star and i like him very much i still play meny songs from the Spencer Davis but there Steve is not so good, with Clapton concert in Paris Bercy- hall he is much better !...
Nothing beats blue eyed soul. It's a beautiful thing when all races, colors and creeds can make beautiful music the world can enjoy. This is truly a blessing.
@leonaofficial Leon 16 or 18 ? u hung up on the wrong chit brotha Hea teenager crashin a the big Hammond and writing hit tunes lemme see ...is he 16 18 20 hahaha
Sorry, Salchez68. My equipment is not professional. The recording was made in a theater and I was at least 50 mt. away from the stage, zoom at full optical extension.
Nevertheless, I'm pretty satisfied with the result.
He was only 15 years old when he recorded this song with The Spencer Davis Group. Can you imagine how he must have felt to have the #1 song in the nation at that age! He handled that pressure a lot better than some of the other young artists.
... yes & can you believe at this performance little Stevie was only 60! lol But seriously doesn't everyone agree his voice just keeps getting richer, fuller, better with time! go Steve
@reedds2000 He didnt record this when he was 15 . This song came out Nov 1966 when he was 18 and it got to #2 not #1. Youre probably confusing facts with his earlier Spencer Davies hits .

He was actually 18, it was released in November 1966, when he was born May1948. Still nevertheless, it must have been a blast at that age too.
