Eric Clapton and Steve Winwood can make anyone sound good, but Willie Weeks really sounds good on this track.... I love the deep, yet defined tone of that P-Bass... it's like a the "concert grand" of bass guitars. YouTube - Steve Winwood, Eric Clapton - Can't Find My Way Home |

| | | | Wonderful. One of the masters of 'playing the song.' All you need is impeccable timing, and a great tone. No flash. No sparks. Just bass goodness. |

He played that particular gig with Steve Gadd on drums. But watching this video? Man, it's tough to say if I dig Steve Jordan or Steve Gadd more. It definitely makes you envy a guy like Clapton who can get either of those guys to play in his band if they're available. |
