if you like this band, do yourself a favour, buy this live recording.
the sound quality is very well recorded, all the gigs are performed exceptionally with very long instrumental sections.

I bought this album in 1973 after reading a rave review in the Times. It's still an album I play regularly. For fans of music today, 18 minute tracks probably seem a little self indulgent. However, this and Birds of Fire by the Mahavishnu Orchestra got me into jazz.
The band is excellent, as well as Traffic it features Barry Becket (keyboards), David Hood (bass) and Roger Hawkins (drums) who were in demand session musicians at the time. They were part of the famous Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section whpo could be heard on dozens of hit singles, including tracks by Percy Sledge, Aretha Franklin, Wilson Pickett, The Staple Singers, Cat Stevens, Duane Allman, Joe Cocker, Paul Simon, Bob Seger, Rod Stewart and Willie Nelson.
I love the musicianship and songwriting. I played my favourite track "Sometimes I Feel so Uninspired" to my music teacher in 1974 and I think he was impressed - to me it still sounds remarkable. This is a great album.

I too bought this album in the 1970s and was knocked out by Roger Hawkins' inspired drums on The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys. Despite decades of listening since then I've never heard anything better.

Peak Time Traffic
This album is a must for any music lover let alone admirers of Steve Winwood & Co. The playing and recordings are superb with the Traffic nucleus of Winwood, Capaldi and Wood... Read more

An old friend
Listening to On The Road was like reacquainting with an old friend. Some weaknesses, flaws, but overall a blast from the past. I just wish Traffic had stepped up a bit more. Read more

Marvellous
Is that really the late great Joe Zawinul grooving over this record? Respect.

A Potential all time favourite
As live albums go this is one of the best. I've got most of Traffic's other studio albums on vinyl (and CD) and listen to them regularly (especially John Barleycorn). Read more

Actually 'On the road'
The first reviewer is referring to 'on the road' as there are no 18 minute tracks on 'Low spark' nor is the track 'I feel so uninspired' on 'Low spark', the second reviewer... Read more
