Traffic - Freedom Rider

[cdawg4391]

One of the best of all time.

[150grnballistictip]

One of those rare people that has the mathematical ability to play any instrument with ease...

[jody24ful]

do u have any idea what goes into this??????

[Aurarisma]

I wish I would have been there for Traffic and Cat Steven concert at the Filmore East November 1970. that must have beeen amazing!!!

[leonakita]

Fu*king Chris Wood!... God Rest his Talented ass !

[beaverteeth92]

Is Steve playing the bass pedals? I can't tell here.

[benmeltzer]

@beaverteeth92 Indeed he is.

[debleo76]

Watched a couple of videos from this show....its a good quality...I wonder if someone could get a hold of the whole show on DVD or something...just athought....it would be well worth the asking price.

[MrNakazuma]

its very cool!

[ricjan58]

Chris Wood,thank you for sharing your talent with us.RIP.

[mrJimCharles]

TRULY AWESOME manipulation of Hammond drawbars.And I'll pay top dollar for the shirt that Steve's wearing in this!

[zappatx]

How is that sax miked? There's a thin cord mounted at the reed almost. Wouldn't think you could get a good sound that way..

I always loved Steve's Hammond work.. Always wished somehow he would have been the guy in YES rather than Rick Wakeman..

[MichaelDinaswirled]

Freaky cool, man! Awesome

[sedlacp]

das ist meine musik!!!

[dlm9293]

Yeah so chris woods kind of the man.

[TheZipperfan]

You gotta love the "people" shirt on Roger Hawkins (the drummer)!

[77sunsetable]

this man has a voice like a angel what a voice high low just wonderful love this song

[freedumb2003]

How cool! I got to play jazz flute behind Chris Wood when he was on the sax!

I think I MIGHT have been qualified to carry his second-hand reed in a silk pillow.

So talented, so gifted, so much, so young his passing!

Well, he lives as a living spirit for me, anyway. I taught myself jazz flute and it was Chris Wood who I did then and now use as inspiration.

[freedumb2003]

@freedumb2003

Um, I meant just now I was playing behind him to the YT sounds. I could never have played at that level, since I was young then and now am too old.

[Montisumo1]

where is dave mason?

[padleynj]

@Montisumo1 good question! He's not on the Santa Monica performance either!

[padleynj]

@padleynj Oh my mistake..this is Santa Monica!!

[Mildrey57]

That's awesome...the kind of music that makes me wish I was born 30 years earlier!

[foxyroxstar]

I wish it were "Freedom Writer!"...even if a few words that were written stealth; cryptic!...(but who pays a toll wen oui is just a hitchhiker!)...Rock n Roll!

[roserosepat]

Awesome! I wish we could bring all this music back today...there's nothing comparable!!! Stevie Winwood rocks!!

[IwotchVid3oz]

@roserosepat this and all music will continue to live on so long as people continue to share treats like this over the internet

[LOCKED121]

If anyone disliked this, they would have to not like music. Just awesome concert and wish to thank all responsible for having it on here.

[clishat]

the percussionist's name is Rebop Kwaku Bah, this entire band was super tight, Winwood, Jim Capaldi, Barry Beckett, Chris Wood. Enjoy it!

[nofear39]

Who is the Black guy on bongos?

[danielion999]

Awesome song. John Barleycorn is one of my favorite albums.
