what a great band, I love this song I heard it the first time long ago, in my childhood actually, I did not know what it is about, now that I speak some English I understand it and let me tell it goes with me.
Saw Dave Mason in Austin, Texas in 1988 and let me tell you, this guy is the real deal. And as a drummer of some note, HIS drummer, Rick Jager just blew me away. Tight is the best word to describe him. Dave, you're one of the most underated stars in the sky. But I and many others know where you are.
this song sheds light on it we just disagree.There are no bad guys ,there are no good guys.We only disagee cause there is only you and me.It is OK to disagree.
Beautiful Song. Incredibly well done live. 29 years old, just heard this song on SIRIUS radio and fell in love with it. Robotic music out there right now is so pathetic and terrible. This is music!
How in the heck can there be any dislike for this? Wow! What an Awesome! Listen to that man bellow out that tune. I heard this song on Am as a kid in the 70's.
@tbirdsport302 I played bass with all of these guys when you weren't born, 69 70 Credence ., the whole scene, all of San Francisco, many recording studios, enjoy that 21, 60 creeps up on all of us. We all wish we could have had you with us back then, your turn now!
@123wesn You see unlike today's artists who need auto tuning and need to lipsync to sound good, these people are true artists! And i am would love to wake up my generation of teens to wake up and go back to the true music of yesteryear and give up the overdramatic sad gimic that artists today have reduced themselves 2!
I hesitate to write it, but... it's timeless. I heard this so long ago. The Eighties I am sure and it still shines just as brightly now as it did then. Real music. No throngs of choreographed dancers, CG, and auto-fader. Wow.
One of the best songs ever written, IMO. Mason's such a brilliant singer/songwriter... There are artists today who may well reach the iconic staus that Mason and his contempraries have, but they're few and far between. Ahh, the memories!
To me this song is about what would happen if the me of today would meet me from 15 years ago. Don't mean to trip anyone out but life's events, trials, and tribulations can change a man.
@brian1861 Yes I am aware of Jim Kreugers contrbutions to most if not all of masons music. He has been Dave's guitar player since God was a boy. But thanks for keeping me honest. Great combination of talent.
Dave carries me back many years when i first became a DJ on a freestyle rock station...his voice is still just as clean and unmistakable as it was then...i think my favs are this one --of course---will u still love me tomorrow, and let it go, let it flow. THANK YOU DAVE FOR SHARING ONE OF YOUR MANY TALENTS WITH ALL OF US! NIK
Timeless classic. You're first pulled in by the acoustic guitars, and the lyrics keep you, with their sad story of two people who've grown apart. And he can't help but entertain one last thought of giving it another go ("...have you got a place to stay..."), which is a place many of us have been, and have tried. And finally the sad but peaceful resolution ("...so let's leave it alone...there's only you and me and we just disagee...."). Beautiful.
Great artist - great song! Kids take note on how to write & play & sing. There is a reason why they call it CLASSIC rock. I can't help but compare to the low-talent over-produced-crap that is out today and pity the people that know no different!
Saw him last night at Canyon Club in Agoura Hills, CA. AWESOME. Honestly, didn't even realize he was the front man for Traffic. Last night's concert was incredible. What a talent.
2nd concert in my life at Lehigh University along with Kenny Loggins. It was the only song I knew by Dave Mason. I always loved it! He still sounds great.
I like this version with the piano even better than the original with the organ. The rawness and power of the piano compliments the 12 string perfectly.
To tspoonhunter: What a beautiful tribute, my man. My thoughts are with you, I hope the services went well and you are healing. Music is the best thing to help that along. My folks both died within three weeks of each other and the music I played at their services helped me cope. Take care.
Mr. Mason Dave, you have been an artist that has brought beauty and joy to my life through your music. Double Live ROCKED!!!!!! I just do not know what to say. Saw you once in Kansas City, MO. during the '80's. Let's talk. Email me. God Bless you and yours. Kooks do not bother.
To all those who lost a love one, God bless you.........I lost my mother in January 2006 , I miss her so much, everyday is a struggle, This music does me real good. I love Dave Mason, I remember my mother telling me to turn the damn music down. LOL..I miss that woman. I still cry fo her.
Jim Krueger wrote this. It's a great song to perform. Most great songs are based on true stories. Simple, strong, emotional and true. That's what a great song is all about. That's Jim for this great song. Yours truly, Vince Ravon. Canadian Songwriter.
All I can say Is Thanks to Dave for such wonderful music. My wife passed one week ago after 30 years of marriage. His song "Every woman" will be played at her funeral and a line from Let it go, Let It Flow will be on the Program Hand out. " A Rose is gonna Fall and an Angel's gonna Call on you, to help You on Your Way. Time spent together, like now is forever, Don't ever Let this Love slip away". God Bless this music and the beautiful mind that created it.
@tspoonhunter I'm sorry for your loss, may the music that you both shared remind you of wonderful times and you will always be together. Take care my friend
. PS : look up a poem called "Desiderata" maybe you know it. Google it and check it out. Peace.
@tspoonhunter I'm so sorry for your loss. I just read your comment and I just had to reply. It was both sad and beautiful. I lost my husband after 11 years. He was only 41. It was unexpected and very sudden. He was my bestfriend and I adored him. I've been where you are now. Take good care, grieve in your own time and in your own way and DON"T let anyone tell you to "Get on with your life". If they do, they don't understand. Again, I'm so sorry for your loss.
@Msdistarr . Thank you very much. You are right, people eho haven't been there really don't understand. I have had friends say things like "I know how you feel, I lost my parents a few years ago". They mean well but the fact is that one can somewhat prepare themselves for the loss of their parents, after all you grow up and move away or at least out of the house. But when it is someone that you have been in an intamate relationship for 15, 20 or in my case 30 years it is Different. Thanks again
@tspoonhunter Its so true. When you loose someone other than a spouse, you have your life to step back into but when you loose a spouse, life as you knew it is gone. Your stepping into a black hole that USED to be your life. Depending on your age, you wonder if it's worth starting over again. It's the most painful, difficult thing I have ever been thru. I've walked in your shoes and I know how you feel.
@Msdistarr Yes, and in my case she was very ill for a long time. I had been her primary care giver for the better part of 13 of our nearly 30 years together. so she WAS my Life and my Job as well. Although I would have done it for free even if I hadn't gotten paid by in home services. So here I am 55 years old and am faced with having to look for work and learn to live life entirely different. It is indeed a black hole at times. Thank you so much for you comments. They mean more than you know.
@Msdistarr Thank you. You are right. People don't understand. Some compare it to losing a parent but when it is someone you have been in an intamate relationship with for 30 years it is different. I also Lost my son one year ealier to the same genetic disorder. I now care for her brother who has the same disease and is nearing the end stages. Maybe thats what God had in mind for my Life. I can only put my trust in him and "Endeavor to persevere" Thanks for your kind words and God Bless.
@tspoonhunter Your a good soul for taking care of your brother-in-law. You've definitely earned your wings. Strangers that we are, I still feel your pain. My heart goes out to you.
@sclarks10 Thank you and thanks to everyoner for there kind words. I am finding that the old saying "Time heals all wounds" isn't entirely correct. This kind of wound never heals. The brain builds scar tissue around it to protect its sanity but the pain even though it lessens still remains.
@tspoonhunter Your reply says a helluva lot about you as a person. Your chosen words for a proper "sendoff" were above and beyond!! I saw Dave Mason for the first time when I was 15 years old. That was 35 years ago. As I travel through this life, those words and messages that he delivered via perfect melodies back then are still the standard today. My condolences to you and yours...I lost my Dad in April. Thanks for shedding some light on a previously dark area.
@tspoonhunter I am so sorry to read of your loss. I realize it has been 11 months, however, that doesn't mean you don't still miss her. You are in my prayers.
You sound like one of those guys that think they can act like an asshole because they're big. All that makes them is a big asshole, man.
Plus, you missed the irony in your own statement trying to put mo9504 down for being in front of the computer on a saturday night. What the fuck were YOU doing in front of yours? LOL
Think of something real witty to say, (other than "oh, yeah?"), and you can tell everyone you got the last word in.
Mr David Mason, I am a Transit worker, I covered you on a photo shoot in b'klyn during the early 90's. Thanks for being a nice guy...I had a great time shooting you and your band. If you would like the shots...all gratis to you and to no one else.. I think the venue was 2000 something or other where travolta danced. . feel free to contact me
Great . . . .is this concert available on CD . . if anyone knows pls let me know. if been a fan eversince his days when he was with traffic and specielly when he left for going solo . . . .great singer - songwriter . . . :)
what a great band, I love this song I heard it the first time long ago, in my childhood actually, I did not know what it is about, now that I speak some English I understand it and let me tell it goes with me.

@tspoonhunter I'm so sorry for your loss. I just read your comment and I just had to reply. It was both sad and beautiful. I lost my husband after 11 years. He was only 41. It was unexpected and very sudden. He was my bestfriend and I adored him. I've been where you are now. Take good care, grieve in your own time and in your own way and DON"T let anyone tell you to "Get on with your life". If they do, they don't understand. Again, I'm so sorry for your loss.

@Msdistarr . Thank you very much. You are right, people eho haven't been there really don't understand. I have had friends say things like "I know how you feel, I lost my parents a few years ago". They mean well but the fact is that one can somewhat prepare themselves for the loss of their parents, after all you grow up and move away or at least out of the house. But when it is someone that you have been in an intamate relationship for 15, 20 or in my case 30 years it is Different. Thanks again

@tspoonhunter Its so true. When you loose someone other than a spouse, you have your life to step back into but when you loose a spouse, life as you knew it is gone. Your stepping into a black hole that USED to be your life. Depending on your age, you wonder if it's worth starting over again. It's the most painful, difficult thing I have ever been thru. I've walked in your shoes and I know how you feel.

@Msdistarr Yes, and in my case she was very ill for a long time. I had been her primary care giver for the better part of 13 of our nearly 30 years together. so she WAS my Life and my Job as well. Although I would have done it for free even if I hadn't gotten paid by in home services. So here I am 55 years old and am faced with having to look for work and learn to live life entirely different. It is indeed a black hole at times. Thank you so much for you comments. They mean more than you know.

@Msdistarr Thank you. You are right. People don't understand. Some compare it to losing a parent but when it is someone you have been in an intamate relationship with for 30 years it is different. I also Lost my son one year ealier to the same genetic disorder. I now care for her brother who has the same disease and is nearing the end stages. Maybe thats what God had in mind for my Life. I can only put my trust in him and "Endeavor to persevere" Thanks for your kind words and God Bless.

@tspoonhunter Your a good soul for taking care of your brother-in-law. You've definitely earned your wings. Strangers that we are, I still feel your pain. My heart goes out to you.

@tspoonhunter You both are beautiful souls and will be together again as you were when you met someday, somewhere. Bless both of you.

@sclarks10 Thank you and thanks to everyoner for there kind words. I am finding that the old saying "Time heals all wounds" isn't entirely correct. This kind of wound never heals. The brain builds scar tissue around it to protect its sanity but the pain even though it lessens still remains.

@tspoonhunter Your reply says a helluva lot about you as a person. Your chosen words for a proper "sendoff" were above and beyond!! I saw Dave Mason for the first time when I was 15 years old. That was 35 years ago. As I travel through this life, those words and messages that he delivered via perfect melodies back then are still the standard today. My condolences to you and yours...I lost my Dad in April. Thanks for shedding some light on a previously dark area.

@tspoonhunter I am so sorry to read of your loss. I realize it has been 11 months, however, that doesn't mean you don't still miss her. You are in my prayers.

You sound like one of those guys that think they can act like an asshole because they're big. All that makes them is a big asshole, man.
Plus, you missed the irony in your own statement trying to put mo9504 down for being in front of the computer on a saturday night. What the fuck were YOU doing in front of yours? LOL
Think of something real witty to say, (other than "oh, yeah?"), and you can tell everyone you got the last word in.

Mr David Mason, I am a Transit worker, I covered you on a photo shoot in b'klyn during the early 90's. Thanks for being a nice guy...I had a great time shooting you and your band. If you would like the shots...all gratis to you and to no one else.. I think the venue was 2000 something or other where travolta danced. . feel free to contact me
