Steve Winwood

A Collaborative Masterpiece

In 1976, I joined Stomu Yamashta’s legendary band for a live performance in Paris. Alongside other musical giants like Michael Shrieve, Pat Thrall, Al Di Meola, and Klaus Schulze, I shared the stage with the incredible Steve Winwood.

Winwood’s vocal prowess and musical style were a revelation. His talent was undeniable, and it’s no surprise that he’s sold over 50 million records. The performance, captured on the album Go Live From Paris (re-released 39 times!), showcases the extraordinary musicianship of the entire band.

It remains one of my favorite albums, a testament to the power of collaboration and the enduring appeal of great music.
