In April 1967, Dave Mason joined Steve Winwood, Jim Capaldi and Chris Wood to form Traffic. As the Summer of Love dawned in June 1967, the band released its first single, Paper Sun, which went to #5 on the charts in the UK, though it barely cracked the top 100 at #94 in the US. The band set to work its first album, Mr. Fantasy which was released in December of 1967, but by that time Mason had left the band. He then returned in the middle of recording their follow up disc in 1968. After the band broke up and reformed, Mason rejoined for a brief period in 1971, only to depart the band once again soon after. This FM broadcast captures Mason over 2 decades after the Summer Of Love, during the height of his success as a solo artist, on June 2, 1979, 38 years ago today. He's joined by some very special friends, including 2 veterans from 1967, Stephen Stills and Joe Cocker. Cocker sings lead on Feeling Alright, a song originally written by Mason, and recorded by Traffic!
