About the Artist: Steve Winwood

Steve Winwood rose to prominence as the keyboardist and vocalist for the British rock bands Spencer Davis Group and Traffic, establishing himself as a distinctive voice in 1960s and 1970s rock. His solo career, which began in earnest during the 1980s, produced several major hits including "Higher Love" and the album "Back in the High Life," showcasing his ability to blend rock, soul, and pop sensibilities. Winwood's work across multiple decades demonstrates both technical facility and emotional authenticity, making his compositions valuable for guitarists exploring contemporary rock arrangements.

Why we love this

This is a staple rock song that students recognize immediately, which means they'll actually practice it. The TAB format removes transcription guesswork and lets players focus on nailing the feel and tone rather than decoding notation, making it ideal for building confidence in guitarists working on contemporary repertoire.

What to expect

A searching, soulful rock song that balances introspection with groove. The guitar sits somewhere between a clean, expressive lead voice and a rhythmic anchor, giving players room to explore both restraint and presence within the same piece.

Who it's for

Intermediate to advanced guitarists drawn to classic rock repertoire. Players working on songs from the 1970s-1980s rock canon will find this a natural fit, whether for solo performance, ensemble settings, or expanding their working knowledge of essential rock songs.

How to get the most out of it

  • Lean into the dynamics of the intro riff. The song's power comes from restraint early on, so resist the urge to crank volume until the verse solidifies.
  • Pay attention to any fingerpicking patterns or strumming texture indicated in the TAB. The character of this classic depends heavily on how the notes are articulated, not just which ones are played.
  • Lock the rhythm section timing tight if you're playing with drums and bass. Classic rock grooves live or die by pocket, so rehearse the backbone of the arrangement before layering your guitar part.

How to use it

Include this in a rock or popular music concert where you want repertoire that spans multiple generations of listeners. It works equally well as a solo performance piece at a recital or as part of a band arrangement exploring classic rock songwriting.

Skills your students will build
