Traffic: Mr Fantasy
Keith Altham, NME, 9 December 1967
TRAFFIC IN the City may have come to a stand-still due to the recent rail dispute, but Traffic in the charts is still moving full speed ahead. All four musicians (Chris Wood, Stevie Winwood, Jim Capaldi and Dave Mason) met me in their manager's London offices to discuss their first album, MR FANTASY (Island) released next week, with producer Jimmy Miller.
