Strawberry Bricks Entry:

Three years had passed between the time Steve Winwood broke up Traffic and the arrival of his first solo album, Steve Winwood, in June 1977. Recorded with a variety of musicians including Willie Weeks and Andy Newmark, it sold moderately in the US, reaching No. 22 in the charts while rising to No. 12 in the UK. Full of soulful tunes and his golden voice, it was a fine if somewhat understated record. Winwood went completely solo for his next album, Arc Of A Diver, writing, performing and producing the music himself.
