Reasonably similar to Peter Gabriel's debut in that both had emerged from long spells with their former groups with solo releases that were more in line with contemporary tastes, while retaining flashes of earlier, freer explorations. But unlike Gabriel, Winwood's debut went completely under the radar, with no hit singles (unlike Gabriel's "Solsbury Hill"). It's simply a competent, well-crafted set of soul-tinged soft-pop music that is going to please fans and leave doubters unconvinced.
