THE SPENCER DAVIS GROUP
MUFF WINWOOD, PETER YORK, STEVE WINWOOD, SPENCER DAVIS
Seminal blues/R&B-infleunced British rock group, featuring a young Steve Winwood. His ferocious soul-drenched vocals belying his tender teenage years, Stevie Winwood powered the Spencer Davis Group's three biggest U.S. hits during their brief life span as one of the British Invasion's most convincing R&B-based combos. Guitarist Davis formed the band with Winwood on organ, his brother Muff Winwood on bass, and drummer Peter York. Signing on with producer Chris Blackwell, the quartet got their first hit.

The band's first American LP, issued more than two years after they had put out their first British recordings, consisted of a dozen tracks selected from various U.K. mid-'60s sessions. It was a reasonable enough introduction to the band for those who hadn't heard most of those, an audience, which, at the time, included virtually all Americans. Along with their first U.S. smash, "Gimme Some Lovin'," it had several British hit singles: "Somebody Help Me," "Keep on Running," and "When I Come Home." The remainder was comprised of fair, though not great, covers and derivative group originals...(AllMusic)
