Reality check. Y'all know Dave Mason wrote this, and the Traffic "version" is the original?

Wow... that brings back memories. Forgot they had done this. I agree with you. Its been a long time since I've listened to any GFR. Time to dig it out....

Great tune, great group. I also like Joe's version. That is all.

The original and most pure version. Has the "Traffic" sound to it (obviously). Later renditions have added the personality of the performers. Dave's individual versions are excellent. Like this for it's inaugural emotion. Classic song regardless who performs it.

"I knew there had to be a better version than J.C. ..."

Never did understand the appeal of Joe Cocker. Definitely not my "cup of tea."

Doesn't quite have the depth of soul or the intensity of emotion as Joe Cocker's most excellent rendition. It's a bit ho-hum compared to Cocker's version.

Dave Mason. BTW, this came from the album Traffic , their second, and IMHO one of the greatest ever. That's Mason on the upper right.

Cover (Traffic:Traffic)

Self edit: Didn't see the Mason/Traffic references below ( bachbeet and kurtster ).

Primarily Dave Mason. Check out his solo "Alone Together" record from 1970 - incredible.

Yep, great take. Dave Mason fan here. Loved the Traffic family of musicians of which Dave was an important but seemingly forgotten part of.
