You know immediately when you’re in the presence of greatness. There are pop stars, there are rockers who command your attention while they’re on the stage, and there are bands you love even though you realize you ought to know better.
Then there are those performers you come into contact with who simply floor you with the sheer weight of their talent. Some people were clearly born to be musicians. Steve Winwood is one of them.
