Traffic at Berkshire Cottage: Just Playing Together was a Fantasy
David Dalton, Rolling Stone, 3 May 1969
THE COTTAGE is an hour and a half from London, but it's thousand light years from Soho Square. Henley is like driving through a postcard, and then you pass through dozens of little English hamlets with names as heavy as a slice of farmhouse bread: Nettlebed, Wallingford, Uffington, Didcot.
