Our Take

In a time when the term "live album" often conjures up images of overproduced, sterile recordings, TRAFFIC's Live On Air 1967 is a refreshing blast from the past. This vintage collection captures the raw energy and improvisational spirit of the British rock band in their prime, showcasing their virtuosic musicianship and undeniable chemistry on stage.

From the laid-back grooves of "Mr. Fantasy" to the psychedelic jams of "Hope I Never Find Me There," TRAFFIC effortlessly blend rock, jazz, and blues influences into a sound that is uniquely their own. Frontman Steve Winwood's soulful vocals soar over the intricate instrumentation, while Chris Wood's flute adds a whimsical touch to tracks like "Here We Go 'Round The Mulberry Bush."

The live format allows TRAFFIC to stretch out and experiment, with extended solos and spontaneous moments of musical interplay that keep listeners on their toes. Tracks like "Dealer" and "Smiling Phases" showcase the band's ability to capture lightning in a bottle, with each performance feeling fresh and invigorating.

While the sound quality may not be pristine, that only adds to the charm of this archival recording. The rough edges and imperfections only serve to highlight the band's raw talent and untamed energy, making Live On Air 1967 a must-hear for fans of classic rock and blues. So grab your headphones, close your eyes, and let TRAFFIC take you on a wild ride back to the swinging '60s.
