Traffic (Steve Winwood) - Evening blue 1973

Traffic - Evening blue 1973

Everybody's looking for something in life
Not everyone's finds what they're looking for.

Everybody wants a little happiness in life
But everyone can open the door

Evening shadows making my heart sing out
Now that summer's here,
changing fears and doubts

If I found a lover, who's heart was true
I wouldn't be alone in this evening blue

(Instrumental)

Now that summer's here
changing fears and doubts.

If I had a lover, who's heart was true
I wouldn't be alone in this evening blue

Absolutely not 1980! Traffic was done long  before this. This clip would have been around 1972.

This song is definitely cut. What a shame. Such a great tune from the ''72/73 Traffic era.

When my wife and I first got married 27 years ago, this was our song! We kept playing the whole Shootout at the Fantasy Factory album all the time! That album is from 1972, I think, but we got married in 1983, but at the time played that album about 200 times!

HONKY! THEY SOUND! STUCK!!!!!!! TO ME!

cool. where did you find this? Loved this era and the songs, but the live stuff, mainly on the road lp was awful, even when it was extended. Haven't heard any remastered remixed CD's but I had all of the vinyl and they released a lot of junk. Love this track from shootout album and tragic magic, the best tracks. Cool to see muscle shoals people again, barry beckett et al

The uncut version is available on muzu.tv -though even it flips to another video just before the end. I love the sax. Chris with 'feeling'- as always.

@prettieststar01 Looks like Beat Club/Musik Laden from 1973

[chrisguygeezer]

This is circa 72 and sometime after the Santa Monica gig. Chris Wood was always indulging, (over)

Somewhere there must be complete footage of this gig. Where?

Beautiful song this, I have the vinyl album and still play it.

dei Traffic mi piace tutto ; anche le canzoni che hanno avuto poco successo .

[dankton1976]

Chris Wood seems to be on heroin here (and so his saxophone...) anyway band was so cool...

[76sagi]

from such an underrated album: Shootout at the Fantasy Factory... I love that one.
