  • Let's face facts: the "best" groups who came in existence since the 1990s can't even come close to this artistry.

    These guys did instinctively what people spent their lives trying to come close to the shadow of. True Rock has already outlasted most forms of music (Classical variations didn't last that long except as oddities).

    Grunge: crap. cRap/"hip hop": crap. New Wave: crap. Punk (and variants): crap. Look upon the face of Music and know you will never best it (or even come close).

  • Had this on an 8-track player!! Long enough for several doobies ...

  • Jim Capaldi was ALL IN...

  • Had this on vinyl. The album cover had a strange cut in it which made it easy to find in the stack. Late nite in my room. Cheap dirt weed. Headphones. Ahhhh yes..........

  • Back in the 70's this song went great with Hawaiian and Miller beer.

  • Thanks to the uploader for this video...like so many others, hearing this music this takes me back to a specific time and place. And also to a time when live performances we so much better than their recorded counterparts. Fantastic performance of a timeless song.

  • Riding around the English countryside in an 69MG-B blasting it High on Lebonese red hash wondreing if my draft number (91) would be called up or they would sign the Paris Peace Accord. Thank God they signed . Too many never came back .Lakenheath High School student, circa; 1972

  • All I can say: This is my all time favorite song!!!! Traffic rocks hard. WInwood is an f'ing genius and the band mates filled in perfectly!

    

  • @freedumb2003 Everyone needs to read what this man wrote. They are Words of Wisdom.

  • Memories of driving down the roads of the SFV, CA. or on the L.A. freeway and listening to my hot 57 Chevy engine and the great off the richter scale TRAFFIC."Spark of the High Heeled Boys" It twas on an 8 tract back then. Steve Windwood & Traffic you rock n rule. Jerome "Jerry" Plotnick Lake of the Woods, CA
