Back in the high life - nearly
Steve Winwood - very good, but not great. An artist with such a phenomenal back catalogue and reputation should hit the right spot every time, but this was a mixed bag. Occasionally brilliant - "Had to cry today", "Mr Fantasy", but then a bit messy, " Higher love" seemed to have some keying issues and the sound was a bit of a mish-mash. Odd set-list choice too - no "Paper Sun", "Hole in my shoe", "Valerie", "Back in the high life", "Keep on running" etc, in favour of a near never-ending jam session where the band members (all first-rate)all had solos. 1 hr 45 mins for 50-something quid, including encore.
