Winwood’s most recent album, Nine Lives, was released in 2008. It includes the single “Dirty City,” featuring Eric Clapton. The two musicians released the live album Live from Madison Square Garden in 2009, featuring performances from their three February 2008 shows at the venue. The setlist included songs from their solo careers, rock and blues covers, and time together in Blind Faith, as well as tunes from Traffic and Derek and the Dominos.
