Steve Winwood w/ Walfredo Reyes Jr. and Randall Bramblett

Song
Dear Mr. Fantasy

Date
2003

Here's a really nice live concert video of Steve Winwood doing his classic song Dear Mr. Fantasy in 2003 with Walfredo Reyes Jr. on drums and Randall Bramblett on organ.

If you believe the folks on YouTube, this one is either “amazing,” “excellent,” “brilliant,” “penetrating,” “a great cut,” “unbelievably great,” “epic,” “fantastico,” “pure talent and artistry,” “incredibly moving,” “indecently good,” “utterly fantastically brilliant,” “a psychedelic masterpiece,” or just plain “DAMN.”

I say it doesn't matter what you call it, just turn up the sound and let it rip. About two-thirds in watch for a beautiful sunset and incredibly soulful guitar work, either of which will certainly melt your face.

Thanks to jairomtz for posting this video.
