Traffic--The Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys. Stevie Winwood is still awesome after all these years; this recoed still sounds as fresh and innovative as when I first had the privilege of hearing it back in 1971! Long live Traffic!

White Knight! I'm not going to get into the vernacular of "The low spark of high-heeled boys",
listening to that record when it came out in the early seventies, and it was very slow and non-rhythmed,
Stevie Winwood experimenting with his own solo recording ability by then. That wasn't Traffic.
I still like his "Gimme Some Loving" with The Spenser Davis Trio.

Liking this very mellow record, you should give "Manfred Mann's Chapter Four" a listen.
After "Quinn the Eskimo" a Brit-pop post Beatle phase, and his progressive rock hit singles,
he made an album with horns, all slow and slow paced songs, a beautiful record.

@ John, I'll give the Manfred Mann joint a try on Spotify. Vis a vis Stevie Winwood, he remains one of my favorite singers and musicians both when he was with Traffic {one of my all-time fave prog rock bands}, Blind Faith and when he launched his solo career. For me--as with Rod Stewart--his voice has a kind of raspy quality, but in a good and very expressive way.
