i being of the year 1968 love life ten years later ace face shock me baby teen years rockaway beach car jockeys lock jaw zombo d crashing on the beach hope 1989 music was back nicks and dimes run amok gravity loses it 's grip ozone baby drifting out of time!!!!
Traffic 1968, it doesn't get more legendary than that. I've always wondered though, why are british announcers so fond of adding the article "the" in front of the names of bands we normally don't associate with that title. The two announcers at the beginning referred to them as "the" Traffic. I have a BBC Top of the Pops CD, where Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, and Ginger Baker are called "The Cream". Just sounds a bit odd.
@masterofscotland: Not sure that's true. I've seen advertisements for Cream and Floyd concerts with the "The" tag before their names before each band ever went to America. I've also seen advertisements for Who concerts without "The" listed. It seemed both countries got bands names wrong probably because the bands were new and no one knew exactly what to call them yet.
my favorite singer of all time. i was listening and thinking my gosh hes actually going to sing the lyrics correctly (which he never does on any songs) then he muffs it on the last line...... great singing though.
Great! Traffic playing real live on TV. Boy, did Chris, Jim, and Steve all sound good. I guess Dave Mason flew the coupe again? Thanks a million for posting this.
this is my favorite all time band. thanks for posting. winwood's carreer has been one of the best gifts of this unexpected and unasked for lifetime. do you hear me mother nature!
Jim capaldi was very underated. He really laid down the bottom for this band. And a great vocalist too. RIP

i wish dave mason stayed on, they probably would have had a tighter sound, i know they got a full band in the seventies, but man.

Advice: You should put the title of the song so people can find your video more easily.
"40,000 Headmen"
Thanks.

Saw Steve last month with Eric...
And even at 61 he's still singing like a god!
And he was 15 when he joined Spencer Davis, singing and playing like Ray Charles... the guy defined 'child prodigy' :D

Traffic laid it down for the late 1960's and early 1970's progressive rock music. Peace.
