He might be the most underrated rock star of all time.
Steve Winwood is phenomenal! Who's with me?
Played every instrument in it. One man show. I'm with you.
Rollo St. James I'm totally with you .What a great jam.
Sold!
How good can it be....!
Not only was I not aware of this song, I didn't know that Steve Winwood played any instruments, much less, that he is a multi-instrumentalist.

This is what you call a "real" solo album. Superb.
@doug3475 Steve Winwood Night Train is one of my personal favorite song
0:38
Night train from London to Edinburgh, my first time in Britain. Love from Spain ❤
Yes. Amazing that Steve played all of the instruments on this!
the funky bass and synth stuff is heaven ! 😄
Together with the rhythm of a diesel train.
IMO…. Steve was up against wayyy too much “competition” in the 80’s. Yet he surpassed them all with his enduring talent, rhythm, and vibes that always and forever will keep us connected to him.
The great Steve Winwood some musicians call the master.
I've been a fan since 1966. Stevie is probably the greatest musician of our generation.
Released as a single in the US in July 1981.
Steve Winwood decided when the 80's should start
This song is written for eternity, in fact it is not supposed to ever end.
Gerald,
Right you are -
Like a true night train!
Hes a spiritual church goin guy
Like Jim Capaldi said at Woodstock that Steve Winwood is by far the greatest musician on the planet.
This song was insanely ahead of its time. Synthesizer-dependent songs were still getting their start across the music industry. And to see a guy like Steve go all out and write and record music with synthesizers to this extent all on his own in his own small and desolate studio for Arc of a Diver was an amazing accomplishment that cannot be ignored.
Recording your own music all by yourself was and still is hard enough. And that difficulty is escalated when you consider how limited synthesizers were at this time. But the fact that Steve himself was able to use these limitations to his advantage and create an entire album that passes the test of time on his own without any major help is just a testament to how much of a musical genius he is.
Arc Of A Dive is truly a solo album. Steve not only sings but every instrument you hear is also played by him. A true artist.
*Diver
I'm 65. Seen him live with Traffic in Pensacola Fla. Been a Winwood listener ever since. Like right now. Still.
Actually that was Conan O'Brien playing some of the musical instruments back in the day .
( NYUCK NYUCK )
@@tonymartines8607 Very lucky 🍀
Arc of a Diver was pretty good too..
That bass is frickin outrageous.
Yes Matt
Many forget the bass
@@neilangus4401 Multimoog bass.forum.vintagesynth.com/viewtopic.php?t=62800
@@neilangus4401 especially nowadays and it's a shame because so many songs would sound so much better with some nice deep base and of course no auto-tune ever ever again
@@gardensofthegods
Precisely
Wise words indeed
That bass is actually played on a Multimoog not a bass guitar. But it still sounds fantastic.
...the best Song from Steve Winwood....
One on THE five finest musicians who ever lived, this great song proved it
Yeah it was the best track on Arc of A Diver. Very atmospheric.
Nobody sings like Stevie Winwood I don't care if you put Eric Clapton with them no one seems like Steve Winwood especially Valerie or you got to roll with the baby that's my favorite you got to roll with a baby😇😙✝️☦🥰🥰🤩😍
Number 1 for this guy.
Awesome!!
I have loved Steve since 8th grade living in Athens, Greece. I'm now a 60 year old woman and I still love his music.
Yes I know what you mean I'm 63 and when I first heard Stevie Winwood way back in the Spencer Davis band I couldn't believe that incredible voice and have always followed his career
I'm 65 and I remember when He issued Arc of a diver like it was yesterday. Brutally good album...
Yep I know exactly what you mean because I'm 63 and I remember when it first came out and wow what wonderful memories from The Arc of the Diver
Same. I'm 61 here, and AoaD just blew me away when it was released; every track is a keeper. It's one of those albums that leaves an imprint on your brain, laced with memories.
Me too and I will soon be 73 LOL
I'll soon be 73 and I absolutely love his voice, music, bass, organ (synthe when so) since 1965 ! and the funny thing is I am french !! Bass guitar is the fundation of a song. If not the whole thing collapses. And what a fantastic voice. Very deep as I love.
Steve Winwood Night Train is one of my personal favorite song
Steve Winwood is one of if not the greatest musicians of all time. He’s up there with Prince and Stevie in my book. 🙏🏽🕊️
S W. Is Truly A Gift to This World. Thank You
There will never be another Steve Winwood. He's a talent that you can't replicate........
Such a multi-faceted musician! He does it all...keyboards, guitar, drums, horns...Why is he not in the R&R half fame??
Clapton-esque gueeitar here no doubt. plus all the rest...including true poetry.
apparently not dumb enuf..
He is, as member of traffic, since 2004.
Because the "HALL" of fame is bogus. You have people honored in there that have nothing to do with rock and roll.
Best Steve concert...Him and Eric Clapton together again: czcams.com/video/zanQN7Rys2g/video.html
@@Doggeslife yeah I don't pay attention to Rock and Roll Hall of Fame anymore what a joke and how prejudiced thanks to none other than Jann Wenner .
For Emerson Lake and Palmer never did get their award or even a nomination and now Carl Palmer is the only one left and I'm sure they would wait till he's dead to give that award but of course they won't even offer it because Wenner doesn't like progressive rock and that says everything you need to know about that disgusting creep .
But they voting people like Pat Benatar or the Bangles ... ? good Lord .
How unfair
rock and roll hall of fame doesn t deserve steve winwood to be in
A guitar solo that you don't want to end.
Ahhh. 1981, in San Franciso one weekend, alone, no plans. Bought a cassette player/FM tuner, and this tape. Walked from one end of the city to the other and back, morning to evening on a beautiful sunny day, with this song and K-FOG playing in my head. I will never forget.
Amazing I had no idea he played lead guitar on this song. He can do everything. Pure genius.
I'm late to comment, but absolutely! Always loved his voice, guitar & keyboard skills. This song was hands down one of my favorite 80's songs. What an era! Alot of great male singers back then who could actually sing.
I grew up in the 80s he was one of my favorites
This song is brilliant. So well written! A classic for eons.
It deserves more accolades. I can listen to it over X2////
@0:28 the transition is mesmerizing in sound. Excellent

Respect
Nearly 40 years later this still utterly epic, a great finale to a superb album, the whole record is loading up to this track.
I bought Arc of a Diver Winwood 2nd Album
In 1980 .Unbelievably, amazing talent. One man band. In my opinion he is most definitely one of the best singer songwriter ,multi instrumentalists of all time.
Moosa,
Yep - truly genius !
America had it with
Prince;
Britain has it thanks to Winwood - once in a generation rare talents!
This is simply a classic. One of Steve Windwood's finest moments...
Music so great it makes you angry for all the junk that comes out.
autotune, melodine, and what not killed the mainstream music, and some of the not so mainstream.
dust , from the album " arc of a diver" one of his best , its like it was sung yesterday.
czcams.com/video/1DbA3ZOjoCU/video.html
check the live version on my channel... Will have another one soon too.. :)
Dust is the best!
Just one guy.
Amazing.
"Master Winwood" indeed.
NO DOUGHT! BRAVO!!
Arc of a Diver, a real masterpiece
Yes I always love Stevie Winwood Spanish Dancer
When I happened to listen to this piece, only in 1994, the voice seemed to me at the beginning just that of Phil Collins, instead I discovered that it is this great artist who is Steve Winwood able to make an album singing and playing all the main instruments , a great musician.
Bought this album back in 1981. Love this so much, The beat is amazing.
czcams.com/video/1DbA3ZOjoCU/video.html
Ditto
Of course, I'm A MAN is NOT on Arc of a Diver... why is everyone here, SUCH Winwood Fans, saying this!!?? THIS is a 60's classic!
This record is 1980. Later in the decade he would make more albums. but there was a space before and after Arc Of A Diver. Arc was sort of a first-Winwood alone doing a lot of his stuff, funk, stuff that sounded sort of like Traffic, and a variety of styles. all withing the keyboard driven work of Steve. No one had really done anything like it previously. But that's Steve Winwood. He is not like anyone else. Music first, never into being a professional rock star.
Agree, 100%
He deserves a RRHOF induction for his solo work. Not just Traffic.
@@islandbee but the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a joke .
I'll give you an example :
Jann Wenner really dislikes progressive rock and so Emerson Lake and Palmer were never even offered a nomination !
Yet The Bangles and even Pat Benatar have been inducted ... really ?
How unfair is that to the genius of Emerson Lake and Palmer and some of the other greats of the Progressive Rock era .
Such a classy guitarist
Steve Winwood, one of 2 Renaissance men of my genetation.
Absolutely one of a kind deadly music 👍👍
Man, I grew up with this song... Such a great time
Wynwood's Night Traincame out when I was in love and shortly thereafter I produced a beautiful wonderful son ... born out of real love and not a mistake he was definitely meant to be here and I knew it .
The guitar is Eric Clapton's style. Very talented guy. Plays perfectly guitar, keyboards, he's a songwriter and his voice is very good with perfect high tones.
Winwood is the best of the best.
Great groove love the intro
Sets the scene of a black night, trains roaring down the track. Winwood mixes synth and plays a mean electric guitar.
His voice full of soul and soars
Still sounds great in 2020
I don't November 15th 2021 Stevie Wynwood still sounds as great as ever with this one of my favorite songs by him
Steve Winwood's music never gets stale; its quality just comes into sharper focus over time.
This song will always be Joe and I driving over the hill reaching for the sun. Forty years later I still hold on to memories...
czcams.com/video/1DbA3ZOjoCU/video.html
I have always LOVED this song but they never play it anymore on the radio. Good stuff from an amazing artist. Love me some Steve Winwood.
SIrius satellite radio is good start
The best! Valarie too!
The most beautiful song from Steve Winwood. By far!
czcams.com/video/1DbA3ZOjoCU/video.html
...not by far !!!
But it is an exhilarating tune that you don't want to end!
Saw him on stage at the Manor in London when he was nineteen.
When he sang John Lee Hooker's Dimples in Your Jaw like no white boy should have. A real prodigy, and sexy to boot.
This should have millions of hits.
Steve plays ALL the instruments, such a talende guy.
Legend... still listen to all your songs - Higher Love still stops me in my tracks when I'm moving about.
Great track ...nice funk sound🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Dig this album. 6 tracks-all of them solid.
7
Heard this in '86 but had no idea who it was! I've been looking for it for years ! Yippee I just found it!
NFL on NBC in the early 80"s brought me here
His music transforms art to a way of life.
Incredible talent. Then and now.
Steve Winwood has given me so much pleasure over the many years, I just don’t know what I’d do without his music!
Crazy ass bass line!! Love it!!!
Huge SW fan for over 50 years.Always interesting, whatever he does has quality.Nightrain sounds great, in a car , at night, roof down.
Jon 0 YES☺️😉❣️✌🏼
One of the greats of rock.
And he is still not in the Hall of fame 😢
Never gets old.
Awesomely beautiful and very inspiring composition!No doubt about it.That bass line gets me going every time. Excellent!!
Little Stevie Winwood. So magical
A h e a d o f I t ‘s t I m e !
This album somehow slipped past me. (I think we were busy with our very young children at that time.) So this is the first time I've ever heard this. Thanks for posting it. (You can't go wrong with Steve Winwood.)
One of my fav Steve Winwood songs.
The most imprinted memory I have of Stevie Winwood was the Arc Of diver album being played through the bands PA systems before live of concerts back in the late 70’s. Great times, great musician .😀

Legendary dreams can be reality
Arc of a diver and low spark of high heeled boys - the 2 perfect albums to listen to while working. Perfect mix of lo fi and melody that doesn't break your concentration but rather enhances it.
Love Steve Winwood's music! Superb guitar playing and keyboardist extraordinaire!
This one really hits it out of the park in every way..
My father was in love with this song, for his last train we remembered so much things thanks to this song ! ...
Grande pezzo, sottovalutato all'epoca in Italia...
@Atlantikonrad Steve Winwood Night Train is one of my personal favorite song
Hell of a musician in every sense of the word ! This is off of Arc of a Diver , brings back Great Memories. Steve Winwood ! Totally talented and Unique!
I bought a cassette release of Arc of a Diver in '82 in a roadhouse somewhere in outback Oz, one the best purchases I've ever made.
Amazing song, amazing musician. A true musical prodigy. Ever since Gimme Some Loving. And to think he was a teenager on that tune singing those soulful vocals. Amazing!
Came for the bassline, stayed for the bassline.
such a great sound, good for dreaming and have 7 minutes to be out of reality.
in the early 80's I listened to it again , and again, and again,....
Active duty 1982. US Ships had cable. MTv had this video playing. Got hooked on Steve Windwood ever since.
Great comment bro🦊
Absolutely phenomenal!!
Absolutely AlFAL
I love thebassline!! Greetings from holland
An amazing talent! Steve Winwood should be a legend!
very talented man!
what a classic!
I love this song, the guitar work is just great.
He is so talented and writes the most fondly memorable songs.
This is much better than anything since year 2000.
What a great travelin song, I'll bet I played this tune thirty str8 times in 1986 on that 567 mile trek from San Antone to Las Cruces NM on I-10. Such a great diversified artist, thank you little Stevie ! Still got that vision of you at 16 playing with Spencer Davis and that magical voice. Rock on
I made a similar drive in 1985, but it was Austin to El Paso. I originally started the drive in Falls Church, Va but stopped to see a friend in Austin for about 10 days. I bet u was headed to NMSU? I was on my way to UTEP!
My listening binge was SF to Seattle...many times.
Another wonderful hit. Like a chef but with music, he knows just when to add notes to give interest. ❤️🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸❤️👌🏼
My fave track. At 20 me and a mate were just getting into hi fi separates and would take this as a test record around equipment shops 😊😎
Great song - how'd I miss it back in the day?
Bravo Steve Winwood! Music that plain feels good.
Awesome....true artist!
