this song has been a favorite of mine since it was on Blind Faith’s album in maybe 1969.... Winwood and Clapton coincidentally enough being two of Blind Faith’s founders. 40 years of practice and they have it down pat.
Remember the little girl topless album cover holding the airplane
Man.....today it’d be a a howl heard round thee world....she was 11 and it was a contrast of her childlike innocence and the technology represented by the fighter plane toy
Odd I agree but we didn’t think much of it honestly
Later versions have different cover
Traffic and the sabbatical at the acid farm slash remote cottage in Berkshire west of London
Winwood
Wood
Capaldi
Mason
And many other uncredited folks like Stills, Hendrix, Pete Townsend and Clapton etc may have contributed to Dear Mr Fantasy...a top five of all time rock song if ever there was one
Winwood on lead guitar....an underrated player
