July 19, 1969:
The Spencer Davis Group announces their break-up...


The band had reached the Billboard chart twice in 1967...

  

"Gimme Some Lovin" (#7) 

 
 














"I'm A Man" (#10)

 


 They placed ten songs on the UK charts, including two number one hits...
  



"Keep On Running"




(NOTE: In Detroit, SRC did a fantastic version of this tune in their live shows...)
  "Somebody Help Me" 

 

Steve Winwood had left the group two years earlier and, of course,  that was just the beginning for Stevie Winwood…
