CCR was the first rock concert I ever went to, when I was 15. I was a HUGE Creedence fan. Yeah, I like Fogerty still. His solo material isn't all that far of a stretch from what he did with CCR. But, then, if you read about Creedence, Fogerty basically WAS "CCR" (which is one of the major factors in their breakup...once they tried making a "Democratic" album (Mardi Gras...which I thought was a pretty good album), things went down the toilet.
And, Steve Winwood...I really never got as much into his '80s/'90s solo work as I did during his Traffic/Blind Faith days. Even his 1994 Traffic reunion material still had a very "Traffic" feel which was quite a bit different than his solo material. I saw Traffic a couple of times, but I've never seen a solo Steve Winwood concert. Of course, I like his work as a teenager in the Spencer Davis Group, too. "Gimme Some Lovin'" is definitely a classic...as is "Keep On Running" & "I'm A Man" (which was covered by Chicago)
