He must have been a total jerk but I would love to know the details. Chris was a strong woman and could stand up for herself. One foot was already out of the band and she still could not stand to be around him. Chris even went on the record in 1995 questioning why Mick Fleetwood would ever hire him. You think of all the crap Chris put up with from guys in her life. He must of been a real peach.

Steve Winwood didn't care for him, either.

His backing band from the ‘70s didn’t especially like the guy.

No. Rick Jaeger and Mike Finnegan were less than glowing and Bob Glaub thought he was cheap. I don’t know what Jim Krueger thought about him, but he was supposed to go out on tour with Dave when he died.

As for the Traffic guys, I know he was closer to Jim Capaldi than Steve Winwood, but no clue about Chris Wood.

I didn't realize Christine had worked with Wood. Mind blowing...
