180g Audiophile Vinyl Mastered by Friday Music's Joe  Reagoso With Kevin Gray From Original Island Records Master Tapes!

Traffic were one of the premier architects of the acid rock movement in the  sixties and blossomed further into one of the most important super groups of the  seventies. Their recordings are the soundtrack to a generation of music  enthusiasts that continues to this day and will forever stand the test of time.

In 1968, the legendary founding members Stevie Winwood, Dave Mason, Jim Capaldi  and Chris Wood sojourned on after a smash debut with Dear Mr. Fantasy and  continued the winning streak with the groundbreaking self-titled classic  Traffic.

Known for their superior progressive rock, jazz and pop influences, the  multi-faceted music of this LP offers non-stop entertainment which truly  illustrates the legendary talent of this English quartet. Whether standout  tracks from the pens of Dave Mason like the classic rock smash anthem Feelin’  Alright? or the prog-rock masterpiece Winwood and Capaldi’s classic Forty  Thousand Headmen, the Traffic album has surely earned its reputation over the  years as one of the more important albums of the classic rock era.

Filled with the piano driven melodies and vocals of the legendary Stevie Winwood  , the hard rocking vocals and guitar work of the masterful Dave Mason, the  explosive sax breaks by the late Chris Wood and the power drumming and vocals of  the late great Jim Capaldi, the Traffic album will always be one of the most  revered albums in their extraordinary career.

Even further classics ensued with each of the hard rockin’ ten tracks that make  up this masterwork...how about the smash sounds of Pearly Queen or another  Winwood and Capaldi classic Means To An End, plus more Dave Mason treasures like  You Can All Join In or Don’t Be Sad...No matter what track is your favorite,  it’s all about Traffic, classic Traffic, and it just doesn’t get much better  than this.

Friday Music announces the Traffic/Friday Music 180 Gram Audiophile Vinyl Series  as they continue with the second installment with the monumental rock classic  Traffic.

Mastered impeccably by Joe Reagoso from the original Island Records tapes at  Friday Music Studios with Kevin Gray.
