Jahfin Posted January 24, 2008 Author Share Posted January 24, 2008 Steve Winwood and Tom Petty are on opposite ends of the vocal talent spectrum - this is an odd pairing? No, it's not. At least no more "odd" than pairing Dylan and Costello or Petty's tour with Pearl Jam. It's called getting asses in seats by putting together two well known concert draws. I don't hate Petty, nor am I one of his biggest fans but chances are I'll be attending one of these shows just for the Winwood factor. I saw him headline ACL Fest several years back and his set stands as one of of the best I've seen in recent years, especially his performance of Dear Mr. Fantasy against the backdrop of the sun setting over Austin.

jimmie ray Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I've seen Winwood a couple times, too! Multitalented musician and the best voice I've heard in rock. Actually Joe Cocker opened up for him - now that's gotta be one of the worst voices, but his band was excellent and we were suprised how much we enjoyed it. But they didn't perform together... Another suprise for me is how good Petty's "Wildflowers" album is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
