Winwood's new album is very good, too.

Re: Traffic/Steve Winwood

For some reason my aging memory is telling me that their spooky little number "Forty Thousand Headmen" had an alternate name or title, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was, or find any reference to it anywhere.

Anybody else remember that, or am I slowly going nuts?

Re: Traffic/Steve Winwood

You are not going nuts Craig...(Roamin' Thro' the Gloamin With) Forty Thousand Headmen is the full title of the song.

Thanks for confirming my sanity, LG, at least for today.

You're welcome Buddy. I didn't even realize Steve had a new album out...I guess I should look into it.

I have always dug Traffic and everything Traffic and Winwood.....great stuff. My colleague from London told me she flirted with Stevie in the Swingin' London times

Re: Traffic/Steve Winwood

Maybe I should have said his "latest" album. I see now that it was released in April of '08. I tend to get a little behind the times. Sorry if I got anyone all excited.

No worries Craig.

I saw an interview two years ago on 60 Minutes with Steve. He has a really cool estate in England where he lives with his family, and has built a first class recording studio in one of the out buildings where he still goes to compose/play his music.

One of the Success stories of a famous rock star who never lost sight of what was important to him, and still makes great music over 40 years later.
