Junction Seven is Steve Winwood's seventh original solo album and was released in June 1997. The album did not sell very well, breaking the Top 40 in the UK^[1] but not the USA, and Winwood took a six-year break from making solo albums (returning in 2003 with About Time). This album was produced by Narada Michael Walden, while Winwood's wife Eugenia co-wrote several songs. Des'ree provided vocals on 'Plenty Lovin'.
