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 blistering "Keep on Running") from another of Blackwell's acts, West Indian performer Jackie Edwards.

grading
RECORD NEAR EX but (please, read above description)
SLEEVE VG+ but (please, see pictures and read above description)
The group's first album is basically a reflection of their early repertoire and very heavy
on the R&B/soul standards. Dominated by covers of Ike & Tina Turner, the Coasters,
John Lee Hooker, Little Walter, Brenda Holloway, and others, only three of the tunes are original.
Two of these are written by Stevie Winwood, the other by Spencer Davis; Winwood's
mid-tempo soul number "It Hurts Me So" is easily the best of them.
Winwood is in fine voice and the group is energetic...(AllMusic)
