The Low Spark Sessions
This appears to be a bootleg, stating "Recorded at Olympic Studios, 1971" and lists Winwood, Capaldi, Rebop, Wood, Grech, Gordon being involved. However, there is some debate about who is on this album and unknown influences can be easily heard. But that only makes this recording even more interesting - particularly for Traffic fans (like me). The other asset is it highlights Capaldi's early vocals. These are versions that don't appear on any other release, which is the wondrous joy of bootlegs. Many thanks to the original uploader.
(Don't let the 96kpbs fool you. The quality is better than you'd expect at this bit rate).

Hi,
Having played the great version of the album title track I was disappointed to find the download no longer worked. Any chance you can revive it ?
Cheers
That's not good news. I have no idea why the file would disappear. I was planning on replacing my from this site as well.
Answer: No. But let me keep checking. Many of these files were backed up in other locations or mb someone else can offer it?
