Spoiler alert: That buzzing you hear is raves about Winwood’s new tour. Word has the set exploding with “I’m A Man” from his Spencer Davis days, plundering the Traffic catalog of the Seventies (
The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys), layering in his Eighties commercial rebirth (
Back in the High Life), and topping it off with 2008’s
About Time. Not bad for the Grammy-winning Brit, 64, who possesses one of most soulful rock & roll voices of all time.
