Notes

When Winwood was about to release Refugees of the Heart he recorded an informal promo with Jim Capaldi of some old and new favorites which was probably broadcast locally in Nashville. The radio show recording, also in circulation on tape, is a wonderful opportunity to hear Steve "unplugged" and informal. The interview shows him characteristically modest, and Capaldi seems to take over the story telling gaps, recounting how they got into Flower Power when a friend returned from the US saying that "something was afoot on the west coast" and then Steve giggles. But the true gem here is Steve's wonderful bluesy, stride piano work, very reminiscent of his Spencer Davis Group ballads. Many of the songs end abruptly, when Steve forgets the lyrics, but nonetheless it's a totally charming performance. The songs include: "Valerie", "I'm A Man", "Dear Mr. Fantasy", "No Face, No Name, No Number", "I Will be Here", "Don't You Know What The Night Can Do", "While You See A Chance" (performed a la Ray Charles), and "Empty Pages". Capaldi does percussion and background vocals.
