Mr. Fantasy

A nice album

This is a good purchase as well as getting the original Mr Fantasy album, at last on vinyl again this edition also includes singles and B sides from the period. Paper Sun, Hole in my shoe and Here we go round the mulberry bush. The disc cover states it is licensed from Universal Music Russia with the actual disc manufactured in the EU. The vinyl is flat and of good quality. Good to hear these songs on vinyl again taking me back to those heady days of the 60's. A good purchase and would recommend to any traffic fan, though the original British album has also now been released on vinyl separately from the boxed set.

Traffic are just an amazing band. The song Dear Mr Fantasy is just incredible. The whole album is a delight to hear

Superb debut album from Traffic featuring the original 4 piece line-up of Stevie Winwood, Jim Capaldi, Chris Wood and Dave Mason. Strong running order with the likes of 'Heaven Is In My Mind', Dear Mr. Fantasy, 'Desire', 'Coloured Rain' and the lovely 'No Face, No Name, No Number' all worthy of mention here. Buy this and follow-up releases 'Traffic' and 'John Barleycorn Must Die' and treat yourself to the sound of one of Britain's best bands of the period 1967-1970.

Great remaster of this album. I had heard a lot of the early singles but this is a much more satisfying listen. Nice to have the US mono version too. This is how reissues should be done...

This Album was after all at the time a bit of fun but I think by default it turned into a work of art."No Face ,No Name ,No Number" is an excellent track IMHO."Dear Mr Fantasy" is another gem, nothing not to like about this, get it and dive into yesterday in the room of percussion.Actually that's from the group Kaleidoscope which is much in the same vein of Psychedelia, a chef that likes music!.
