Review
Steve Winwood deserves some of my respect, he was a member of Traffic after all... but this album is just beyond the pale. Why is this even here? I don't know, just listen to the beggninig of the first song, it sounds like a bad sitcom theme from the 80's.
The rest of the album isn't as awful, just boring and tacky. I was just going to write "Shit Sandwich" for this review.

You're joking right?

Trivia
From Wikipedia:
Featuring Winwood's first solo hit, "While You See a Chance" (which peaked at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States), this was Winwood's true breakthrough album as a solo artist. It peaked at #3 on the Billboard 200 album chart, establishing him as a commercially viable act.

Here's a dilemma what to put out first your eyes or your ears? :

Not even a Spinal Tap reference can make this better.
Oh shit, it's this guy.
I have to listen to garbage like this all night long as a cashier.
What happened in the 80s that made mainstream tastes take such a huge dive? Payola?
