Steve Winwood - Valerie Talking Back To The Night

Review by Rafael Bujotzek

Valerie Talking Back To The Night is the fourth studio album by the British musician Steve Winwood. Released in 1982, the album marked a departure from Winwood's earlier work, as it incorporated more electronic and synthesizer-based sounds.

The album's title track, "Valerie," was a hit single and remains one of Winwood's most popular songs. The song features a catchy hook and a driving rhythm, which helped it to climb the charts and gain widespread radio play.

While "Valerie" is undoubtedly the standout track on the album, there are other strong songs here as well. "Big Girls Walk Away" is a funky, upbeat number with a memorable chorus, while "Help Me Angel" is a slower, more contemplative ballad that showcases Winwood's impressive vocal range.

Summary by Rafael Bujotzek

Valerie Talking Back To The Night is a solid album that showcases Winwood's versatility as a musician. While it may not be as groundbreaking or influential as some of his earlier work, it remains an enjoyable listen and a worthy addition to any fan's collection.
