Leading up to WFUV s 1971 Throwback Thursday on March 25 dedicated to albums celebrating their 50th anniversary this year all month on Album ReCue we ll be taking a deep dive into some of the 71 releases that mean the most to our weekday FUV hosts. Above, an archive of
Alisa Ali s conversation with
Eric Holland about his selection,
Traffic s epic
Laura Fedele s overview of that release.
Says Eric about why he chose that 1971 classic: It s an essential rock album largely defined by the elegant delicate interplay between the vocals of one of rock s great voices Stevie Winwood, and the haunting, frequently gorgeous flute playing of Chris Wood. It s anchored by the epic title track that was a fave at freeform FMs of the early 70s and features a couple of tough rockers sung by Jim Capaldi where Stevie shows his guitar playing is almost as formidable as his work on keyboards.

I remember going down to the cottage in Berkshire to jam with him. The arrival of Traffic’s songs and the imagery of Jim Capaldi’s lyrics drove forward and then ahead on a vast surge of beautiful hope and other worldliness” - Robert Plant
“a great poet songwriter and musician. I am proud to have been his writing partner on so many songs” - Steve Winwood
His bullish frame was exactly how he played and sounded on the drums. Fierce and deliberate, no turning back. He had a great, charging personality, but was so soft at heart – Yusuf Islam /Cat Stevens
