Never was much of a fan...like Winwood's stuff from the 80's, though...

This is a fantastic example of 'house in the country' jamming. Traffic wrote the book on getting the band out of the city, staying together in a house in the country, going for beautiful walks during the day, then having cosy evenings drinking wine and smoking joints around the fire then jamming all night. I listen to this album when I crave that experience.
 
Funny how 'brilliance' becomes 'what was I thinking' when the buzz wears off.

How funny! I loved this as soon as I heard it when I first heard it when I was 13. And I still love it, and it sits proudly on my I-pod with all its more modern brothers

This is a cool tune; I don't get to hear it too much any more. The rock stations on the east coast used to play this a lot.

First time I'd ever heard a sax on a wah-wah pedal. When I saw them play this live, Wood attacked the pedal like he was stomping on a bug. Amazing band.

Not sure why, but I find the sax in this song annoying. Sounds like a tacked-on afterthought. But I'm not a big sax fan either way, just my 2 cents.

Steve Winwood, what a musician!  I never saw him play guitar until Crossroads 2007 and he ripped.

I've never heard this one by Traffic before. Always cool to discover new stuff...thanks, RP!
