	Steve Winwood Fans' Site: Traffic biography
		Traffic were formed by Winwood, Wood, Capaldi and Mason in 1967 shortly after Winwood had left the Spencer Davis Group.
		Traffic expanded the personnel again with a percussionist, Reebop; and for a short British tour in the summer of 1971, ex-Domino Jim Gordon came in to bolster the rhythm section, and the errant Mason again returned to the fold.
		And it was in Berkshire, of course, that Traffic was born.

		That doesn't diminish the fact that Traffic was not only popular, but an influence on its British rock peers, ranging from Elton John all the way to King Crimson.
		However, Traffic at first was a full-blown collaboration between Winwood, Capaldi, and the drug-dazed Mason.
		Traffic members Winwood, Wood, Gee, and Rebop show up in several places, and Chris Spedding is the main guitarist throughout.

	Steve Winwood and Traffic-rock and roll
		Traffic’s main distinction, besides Winwood’s talents, was the addition of Chris Wood’s flute and saxophone, which gave the band a superficially exotic flavor.
		Chris Wood’s solos in particular are almost always tentative, his phrasing a bit breathless.
		Even in some of their shorter, more structured, songs Traffic seemed poised on a dangerous precipice whenever forced to traverse bridges and instrumental breaks, opting many times to pray their way over.

		Traffic was a successful group that followed its own individual course through the rock music scene of the late '60s and early '70s.
		Meanwhile, as Traffic recorded material for its debut album during the summer of 1967, its communal outlook was disrupted by Mason, who, unlike Winwood (a composer who needed help with lyrics and therefore tended toward collaboration), was capable of writing songs on his own and did so.
		In the spring of 1971, in anticipation of British and American touring, drummer Jim Gordon, formerly of Derek and the Dominos, was brought in, as was percussionist Reebop Kwaku Baah.

	Traffic
		Traffic has their own more rock-oriented sound on the rest of the album, thanks mainly to Winwood.
		As for the other two members of the band (Winwood and Mason split bass duties), Chris Wood (flute/sax) provides an integral part of their sound without really being the focus of it (something pretty rare) and drummer Jim Capaldi is partially responsible for the hard-hitting nature of the album.
		Traffic added in more jazz and folk sounds here, but not to the point where it overpowers the music (the fabulous instrumental "Glad" is the most overtly jazzy).

	Tribute to Chris Wood (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Four years ago, twenty years after the original Traffic’s demise, an unbelievable chain of events finally brought into my hands the tape that contained what to Traffic diehard fans was a promise never fulfilled, a myth, a non- existent legend; Chris Wood’s solo album.
		In many little ideas and oddities he disseminated here and there, Chris was the magic sprinkle in that unique blend of styles and sounds.
		Remembering his voice as prominent in some of Traffic’s early songs like "Mulberry Bush", this is the only track to have a bit of singing on the finale ;most probably by Chris himself overdubbing several tracks.

	Traffic
		Traffic was formed when Steve Winwood, who was the focal point of the Spencer Davis Group (see Spencer Davis Group), decided to move beyond the restrictions of the group and form his own band which consisted of other Birmingham area musicians.
		Saxophone/flute player Chris Wood who was born in Harborne, Birmingham on 24 June 1944, had been a member of the group Locomotive and previous to that, had been in Sounds Of Blue which later became Chicken Shack.
		Traffic's live shows at this time included a lot of on-stage jamming and improvisation as well as extended solos by the individual members - something quite unusual in Britain for a pop group in those days and an indication of things to come.

		Though it ultimately must be considered an interim vehicle for singer/songwriter/keyboardist/guitarist Steve Winwood, Traffic was a successful group that followed its own individual course through the rock music scene of the late '60s and early '70s.
		They were signed by record executive Chris Blackwell, founder of Island Records, and began recording in 1964.
		A winter 1971-1972 tour was aborted by Winwood's poor health (he was later revealed to be suffering from peritonitis), and Grech and Gordon left the band, while Capaldi recorded his debut solo album, Oh How We Danced; it reached the American Top 100.

		But the original Traffic -- drummer Jim Capaldi, saxophonist Chris Wood, singer-guitarist Dave Mason and all-round wunderkind Steve Winwood -- couldn't keep it together, even in the green peace of their rehearsal cottage in Berkshire, England.
		Yet Traffic is a triumph of earthy cohesion, a sparkling British twist on the rural-basement RandB of the Band's Music From Big Pink.
		Traffic is vividly haunted by disappointment, in the antique-folk paranoia of "40,000 Headmen" and Winwood's high, lonesome wails of surrender in "No Time to Live." Traffic re-formed in 1970, minus Mason, with great success.

		Thus, Traffic, dead and buried for more than a year, was reborn.
		The band's new approach was closer to what it perhaps should have been back in 1967, basically a showcase for Winwood's voice and instrumental work, with Wood adding reed parts and Capaldi drumming and occasionally singing harmony vocals.
		If the original Traffic bowed to the perceived commercial necessity of crafting hit singles, the new Traffic was more interested in stretching out.

		The lineup is listed as Jimi Hendrix (guitar), Steve Winwood (piano), Chris Wood (flute), Rick Grech (bass), and Jim Capaldi (drums), but the actual lineup of these recordings is uncertain.
		The overall sound resembles Traffic, and the piano and flute parts seem particularly recognizable as Steve and Chris, respectively.
		The extraordinary aspect of the recording is the complementary interplay between Jimi and Chris.

		Ironically, this was not supposed to be a Traffic album but the first solo album for Steve Winwood, who was still only 22 years old at that point although already a veteran of the Spencer Davis Group with the classic "Gimme Some Lovin'" on his resume as the definitive screaming organ piece of the decade.
		The other thing that strikes me about Traffic is that they really knew how to start a song, especially the awesome piano lick that begins "Glad," but also on "Stranger to Himself" and "John Barleycorn." The album made it to #5 on the Billboard album chart.

		The title track, with Chris Wood's gently haunting flute and Steve Winwood and Jim Capaldi's lovely harmonies is the most beautiful rendition of this folk song you will ever hear.
