Dave Mason in HOF Class of 2004
Traffic is being inducted into the Rock And Roll HOF ('bout f*cking time). Now there are nine members of Fleetwood Mac in the Hall of Fame, and most of Blind Faith, for that matter.

Is Ric Grech being inducted (posthumously) with Traffic? (after all, he WAS the bass player on the biggest selling Traffic album...Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys )
That would make ALL of Blind Faith in. Now if somebody on the HoF committee would rectify their mistake and retroactively include Bob Welch w/Fleetwood Mac, all would be right in the world of music.

Amen. I think FM would've folded without Bob and his great songs. There would be NO BN!

Here's a note about the ceremony from Billboard:
"Earlier in the evening, Winwood took the stage with U.K. rock combo Traffic and showcased his lead guitar skills on a jam-laden version of "Dear Mr. Fantasy," accented by soulful organ accompaniment from Randall Bramblett. Although principal member Dave Mason joined Winwood and drummer Jim Capaldi to accept their awards, he did not perform until the closing jam." (Note: they played "Feelin' Alright" on the closing jam.)

Ok, and I have to say that Lindsey's version of "Love Minus Zero/No Limit" sounds more like the Byrds than Dylan, too.

I saw Steve Winwood's About Time tour. He played on a Hammond B3. I have to say this was one of the best shows I have ever seen. He covered Blind Faith, Traffic, Specer and some great selections for his solo work.
Check this album out, it's fantastic. |

I saw Traffic on their 1974 When The Eagle Flies tour, and then twenty years later on their 1994 reunion tour.
The thing that always takes me by surprise is how good Winwood is as a guitar player...I've always known his keyboard playing, but, man, he straps on that Strat and...YIKES!...it's like Eric walked in the building. Steve & Eric sound an awful-lot alike at times.

Damn, I just got around (trying to) watch this show (as I taped it) and it cut off before the "all star jam" at the end and that was really the only part I cared about. I don't know what happened, I used a 2 hour tape on SP speed and set it for the right times etc. I guess it over ran (I figured they'd have it down pat on the editing since it was taped/not shown live etc. but whatever. I've checked VH1's schedule and they don't seem to list this anymore for re-runs (even though they are generally the re-run kings, Fred Berry RIP). If anyone can help me out with a copy of the final all star jam part of this show that DM played on then please PM/E mail me and we'll work something out. Thanks in advance.
