Best Of The Single Disc Comps

(4 out of 5 stars)
"Thanks to Steve Winwood's career, there are a lot of compilations focused on his stint with Spencer Davis back in the mid-60s. Most of these comps are issued on budget line labels, with minimal liner notes and varying song choices outside of "Gimmie Some Loving" and "I'm A Man".
This is a reissue of the very first "Best Of" that came out right after the Winwood brothers ditched the group (and supposedly better things, definitely up for debate IMHO). So for that very reason, and the cool album cover shot, I rate this ahead of most of what is out there. For the casual fan, you get what you need, and the remaining song choices are intelligently picked for the most part."
