Editorial Review: Album Details: Japanese Release of his Forthcoming Album, Freaturing an Exclusive Bonus Track. Tracklisting Unavailable at this Time. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A Soulful WinwoodWhen Steve Winwood remarked he was returning to his R&B roots on Junction Seven he came close on many of the tracks. When I got the CD I bought it for Plenty Lovin and at first wasn't really impressed with the other tracks. The more you listen to the CD however you begin to realize that there are some great songs that many people have wrote off as some of Winwood's less impressive work. Spy in the House is a fabulous dance song, Angel of Mercy will take you to church and back, Let Your Love Come ... Read More Rating:  - You Will Have Some Fun I had purchased this used at a record store nearby I had expected something horrible out of this CD from the reviews I had read but I was incorrect this CD is packed with surprises Winwood collaborates with 3 people in this Songwriter Narada Michael Walden + Steve's long time friend Jim Capaldi + Steve's Wife Euginia Winwood This has a mixture of extremely danceable songs + Winwood's nice calming blue eyed soul pop we all know. When I mean extremly ... Read More Rating: - SADLY OVERLOOKEDIt is ashame when someone of Winwood's talent goes out on a creative limb and get eviscerated for it. I didn't dig this recording for some time after I got it, I must admit. But about two or three years after I picked this CD up, I actually listened to it and found such fully realized funk and soul brought together by some very talented people!! All I can say is give it another non-judgemental listen. I actually think that this recording is less 'pop' sounding that his more successful solo releases such ...

Some of Winwood's stuff falls between the rock&roll, r&b, and jazz format lines and never gets picked up. This album has a lot of those type of songs, so it never took off and was even considered a "failure" by some chart-orientated critics. But there are a lot of excellent songs and no duds. You really need to listen to the album as a whole ... Read More Rating: - As Good as Back in the High LifeI'm totally bemused by the poor reviews of this album - it is more poppy but so what - it's a 90's version of Back in the High Life ...the duet with Des'ree on Plenty Lovin' is great; the remake of Family Affair a favourite and Someone Like You is a great love song. If you are critic of Winwood because this doesn't stay with the roots I'm not sure how you could also be a fan of his Grammy winning music in the mid-80's. It also was commercial in nature - as this is. It sounds good, it makes you feel good and ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
