Issued in 1970 after the group’s regrouping around Steve Winwood, Jim Capaldi and Chris Wood, it marked a turn towards longer, more exploratory forms without losing the songcraft that had defined their earlier work. The album balances instrumental drive with reflective writing on pieces such as Empty Pages, Glad and the title track, a traditional song reworked into something unmistakably their own. Widely regarded as one of Traffic’s finest albums, it helped define the band’s early-1970s sound and lasting reputation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/traffic\"\u003eTraffic\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/island-records-record-label\"\u003eIsland Records\u003c\/a\u003e – SIL-933909\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP, Album\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_new-zealand\"\u003eNew Zealand\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReleased: \u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/all\/year_1970\"\u003e1970\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pop-rock-vinyl-records\"\u003ePop \u0026amp; Rock\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/art-rock\"\u003eArt Rock\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/blues-rock\"\u003eBlues Rock\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/folk-rock\"\u003eFolk Rock\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/jazz-rock\"\u003eJazz-Rock\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/psychedelic-rock\"\u003ePsychedelic Rock\u003c\/a\u003e\n          \n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Traffic+Glad\"\u003eGlad\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Traffic+Freedom+Rider\"\u003eFreedom Rider\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Traffic+Empty+Pages\"\u003eEmpty Pages\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Traffic+Stranger+To+Himself\"\u003eStranger To Himself\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Traffic+John+Barleycorn\"\u003eJohn Barleycorn\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Traffic+Every+Mother's+Son\"\u003eEvery Mother'S Son\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Island Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50743405117505,"sku":"3589663","price":45.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/OS0xMTA3LmpwZWc_fcfKXot.jpg?v=1792455410","url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/products\/traffic-john-barleycorn-must-die-363121","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
