About Time is the eighth solo studio album by Steve Winwood, released in 2003. It was his first album since 1997 and it featured a return to a musical style more in line with his earlier work with Traffic. That style is emphasized in the three piece band lineup: Hammond B-3 organ, guitar and drums, occasionally joined by saxophone, flute, conga drums and miscellaneous percussion characteristic of the Traffic sound from 1971-1974.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

Critical reception

Template:Album ratings Reviewing for AllMusic, critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote of the album "Winwood's voice is now a little rough (which comes as a surprise), it nevertheless fits the scaled-down, relaxed atmosphere. And if individual songs are not necessarily memorable, they don't necessarily need to be -- the feel is the thing here, and while it isn't first-rate Steve Winwood, it does feel like a welcome update from an old friend, which, after several years of waiting and several uneven records, is enough."[1]
