A biography of Steve Winwood who achieved fame as Little Stevie Winwood, the lead singer and lead guitarist of the "Spencer Davis Group" and later with "Traffic" and "Blind Faith". More recently, he returned to the public gaze with an album and several singles. Alan Clayson does not simple address his musical career but also plots his relationships - sometimes stormy - with some of the other musicians of his generation and follows his private life as well. A fellow musician and contemporary of Winwood, Clayson has spoken to many other musicians and mutual contacts in order to build up this portrait. Clayson is also the author of "Call Up the Groups" and "The Golden Age of British Beat, 1962-67".
