Giving to You - Traffic

[DYNODRUM]

"Just for You and Giving to You", are Different Songs [Traffic] On Different Albums ..But, It's Jazz ...Capaldi saying it...

Awesome, I've only heard the version off of Mr.Fantasy. This is more instrumental, which I can appreciate, but damnit if I don't miss those jazzy vocals.

[mjazzguitar]

On my album this was called "Just For You" and the beginning had a bunch of blacks just basically saying stuff like "I dig jazz, I mean that's where I'm at."

definitely the best version! same instrumental track as album version minus the opening vocals. But what vocals! "life is worth living and living is giving to you" Doesn't that sound like the quintessential 60's thought? Together with Paper Sun, an exquisitely unusual pop song, coming completely out of nowhere, fully formed. What a double sided single! An unheralded gem if there ever was one!

thanks for posting this!

The organ and the drumming are so good in this song

[SergeantReese]

I much prefer the opening of this version to the version on the album.

Does anybody remember which tv prog/ad used the flute solo?

It's so familiar!

Is that Tony Curtis saying something like "What I mean is er...jacks". It sounds like him.

[spacepatrolman]

[fidomusic]

@spacepatrolman Thanks. I thought it probably couldn't be Tony Curtis lol although it sounds like him.

[spacepatrolman]

@fidomusic He did a movie the outsider where he played ira hayes the pima indian that raised the flag on iwo jima and died of alcoholism on a reservation gregory walcott played his drill instructor watch the rifleman episode tension with walcott and his interviews
