    A tighter jazzier spacey proggy sounding Traffic w/ lots of fine instrumental ages, terrific extended solos, very interesting lyrical songs that’s not without its flaws but rescued by some crunchy meaty guitar & a pulsing groove set by the excellent percussion playing. Don't believe the popular view that this is Traffic in decline. Winwood continues to shine through with his musical presence & performance. Chill out to this record - you might find you're pleasantly surprised. A classic slice of British early ‘70s prog/jazz rock.
    Fine excellent late evening listening.

        my pressing has the cut edges goes under ILPS 9224 but has a different Island Label (orange, blue with a green palm tree on the left side) - not sure where it comes from

          This must refer to the 1U pressing. Note that on the 3U pressing, also on Pink Rim, the title track is seconds shorter while 'Roll Right Stones' is a full two minutes shorter. There would appear to be mix differences too.
