Young Stevie W was blessed with some weird genes that belied his upbringing 🤣

Steve’s father and older brother were both musicians, and he started playing at clubs with them from age eight. Stevie was also a choirboy. By his early teens he was an in demand Hammond organ player in the Birmingham music scene. He along with his brother Muff, was a founding member of the Spencer Davis Group at age 14. They only named the group after Spencer because he was the most outgoing and willing to talk and be interviewed.

In 1968 Stevie Winwood was invited by Jimi Hendrix to play organ on his double album, “Electric Ladyland”. Stevie played on the 16 minute, “Voodoo Chile” track, which was basically a never rehearsed, one-take, Jam Session. His iconic work on that song was praised by Jimi’s renowned recording engineer, Eddie Kramer.

The lad wrote this song

"I'm a Man" is a song written by the Spencer Davis Group singer-songwriter Steve Winwood and record producer Jimmy Miller.

In 1967 I saw the Spencer Davis Group perform doing this song at Murray The K Rock Show in NYC along with Cream, The Who, Wilson Pickett, Blues Project, Vagrants, Smokey Robinson & The Miracles all showcasing a few tunes each in the day. Steve Winwood was just a teen that then

Jamel, we had the organs in a lot of bands back then, as well as the harmonica! So blessed!

The first song I ever heard Stevie Winwood sing was "Gimme Some Lovin'" as a little girl in the 70s. Must have been on an oldies station. Try that one, Jamel. It's great! I wish sometimes that I'd've been a session singer in the 60s, because I'd've gotten myself to London at the soonest opportunity in 1964. _::sigh::_

Who says a white scrawny, working class kid from 1960's Birmingham can't sing? A total classic, and your reaction says it all, it literally makes my hairs on my arms stand up everytime I hear this song. All the best, and thanks for posting. Nick

Steve Winwood wrote this song. It was recorded in 1967 when he was I9. Chicago covered this song on their debut album which was a huge hit. "Little Stevie's" influences were the big blues singers of the time. Steve's father was a professional musician & he started playing with him in pubs when he was just eight. As a school kid, he played the organ & guitar for some of the greatest American blues artists of the time when they went on tour in the U.K. He played with B.B. King, Muddy Waters, Bo Diddly, John Lee Hooker +more. He also played with the legendary rock and roller Chuck Berry. Pretty amazing feat for a school age kid. Probably no other artist out there that has this resume. If you want to see a "real" video of your imagined NewOrleans jazz club take a look at the Official Video of Roll With It. His coolest video - with dancers!

Wow haven’t heard this in forever! Thanks for doing this one J!!

Steve Winwood , greatest English blue eyed soul singer ever

Just your reaction by itself pays a major compliment to stevie Winwood and this particular jam. A little bit of history on this song. Stevie Winwood with the David Spencer group recorded this version first. Then others followed like Chicago and there's also a disco version that was very very popular back when disco was the thing in NYC. But Stevie Winwood is indeed a timeless classic. Even till today, this jam still hits the spot. I've heard an extended version that the putting it together, did it justice. Keep the music coming. I'm also a big fan of your channel.

His group is the one who sang this way back. I'm 64 & remember this. Great song.

Oh man, his voice is cracking! He was so young, so talented.

STEVIE WINWOOD WAS 15/16 WHEN THIS WAS RECORDED! WHAT A VOICE!

You are onto my man, Steve Winwood! Keep listening and enjoying Winwood’s talent! A maestro for sure! 🎼🎹💟

You're on a roll today.

Ah I love it! I named my middle son Spencer Davis but only partially due to this group. The song Gimmie some Lovin please do that also 🙏✌️

Supposedly, Eric Clapton heard Steve Winwood sing, “Georgia On My Mind,” and it brought him to tears.

I've seen a video or 2 of them doing this live - but never saw this one. I still remember the day I first heard this song back on January 1967 - one of my all time favorites and Winwood can wail! And yes, he wrote the song and Jimmy Miller produced it. Winwood is from England - born in Handsworth. Thanks for posting it.

The Spencer Davis Group did it first because it was written by him and Jimmy Miller. Steve is a multi instrumentalist and here he is playing a Hammond organ - synths didnt appear really until the 1970s.. This is from 1967, his brother Muff Winwood is a music producer. Steve Winwood is from Birmingham UK - we had a huge R&B scene during the 1960's/70's. So many great bands started in Birmingham and you have reacted to some already. This is what I grew up in and around because my parents managed a band and my dad had a car repair business and repaired cars belonging to Led Zeppelin, Slade etc. Looking back it seems surreal but at the time I didnt make the connection between the people sitting our couch and pushing me on my swing in the garden with their music that I heard on the radio.

Yes! Chicago did do " I'm a Man", and Spenser Davis was the originator.

And another surprise!!! You never knew we had such soul shattering talent in the 60's...

I love, love LOVE this song, I was born in the tail end of the 60s and listen to this particular decade.

Jamel you're like family in my house man! Would love to see a react video to John Prines song/video Summers End. You'll love it.

Watching Spencer Davis Group, wearing my Keep Great Music Alive shirt on, with Jamel, mourning Spencer Davis' passing. Beauty.

The story as I heard it was that his father was a musician and would bring on stage to play with him. But the pianos in the pubs he played in were always so out of tune that he switched to guitar. Then Spencer Davis had a hit with “Keep on Running” and he took some of the money to buy a Hammond Organ because they only weighed 400lbs and cold be moved from gig to gig. Then they recorded this and “Gimme Some Lovin” using the new sound. For most music fans this was the first time they heard a B3 (or as Jamel calls it a church organ).
