Dawn, thanks for posting this. The one Traffic Lp (audiophile no less ) that I still have. What a great live band, that track is more jazz than rock, what with the chord progressions and the use of dynamics ( low to mid to high volume and back ) . I can only think a few other bands that could play live like this back then. Camel, Gentle Giant, Focus, The Band , Renaissance, Caravan, Yes, and Blood Sweat & Tears, Very rare company.

Dawn, come on now , you have heard of The Band. Camel, Gentle Giant (My all time favorite progressive rock band)Caravan, and Renaissance are all English bands. Focus is Dutch.
