Rounded out by drummer Jim Capaldi and multi-instrumentalists Chris Wood and Dave Mason, MR. FANTASY included experimentation with vaudeville-inspired numbers ("Berkshire Poppies"), flamenco-flavored fantasy ("Dealer"), and sitar-drenched meditations ("Utterly Simple"). Winwood's inspired organ playing and soulful singing emerge on cuts like "Coloured Rain." In keeping with the band's unorthodox approach to composition and arrangement, "Giving To You" offers a funky groove sandwiched between tidbits of an overheard conversation about the relative merits of jazz. Professional Reviews: Q (2/00, p.104) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...embodies the mores of hippy-era British rock....heavy on pastoral whimsy..." Mojo (Publisher) (1/00, p.106) - "...a riot of trendy hippy-pop....shows that Traffic were capable of thoughtful, inventive and occasionally very beautiful music." Producer: Jimmy Miller Format: CD (1 Disc); Stereo Country: USA Studio/Live: Studio Release Date: 1 November, 1999 Label: Island Uk Dimensions: 14.4 x 1 x 13 centimeters (0.06 kg)
