"Eve" is the debut solo single of Jim Capaldi, released in 1972 from his first solo album, Oh How We Danced. The song features Paul Kossoff, Dave Mason and Steve Winwood.[1] The B-side on the Island Records single was another Capaldi-written song, "Going Down Slow All the Way". "Eve" charted at No. 65 in Australia and No. 91 in the US.[2][3] Capaldi's obituary in The Guardian (2005) mentioned that "Eve", despite being "widely admired", had "mystifyingly failed to give him a hit single" (in the UK).[4]
