umbertino Posted October 2, 2020 Report Share Posted October 2, 2020 Dave Mason ( who wrote song) is the lead vocalist here ( not Steve Winwood, the usual vocalist in the band & leader) To me Mason's voice is sooo similar to Stephen Stills' (at least in this song) ...JMHO... So much that In the past I used to believe it was Stephen singing..Until I found out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_(band) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

umbertino Posted October 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2020 Steve Winwood plays all instruments here and sings (as usual)...Jim Capaldi (band drummer) does back-vocals only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
