Traffic - Dear Mr. Fantasy

Traffic - Dear Mr. Fantasy (Capaldi/Winwood/Wood)

Dear Mister Fantasy play us a tune
Something to make us all happy
Do anything take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar
Make it snappy
You are the one who can make us all laugh
But doing that you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years

Traffic
The English psychedelic rock band Traffic featured a still very young Steve Winwood (fresh from his massive success with the Spencer Davis Group) on vocals and keyboards and also included Chris Wood on reed instruments, Dave Mason on guitar, and Jim Capaldi on drums. 

Fast Facts 
Origin: Birmingham, England

Label: Island Records

Reunited in 1970 after Winwood's time in Blind Faith to release their most acclaimed album, John Barleycorn Must Die 

Legacy 
The John Barleycorn Must Die album (which was originally going to be a Winwood solo release) hit No. 5 on the United States charts, but otherwise Traffic wasn't quite as successful in sheer numbers as Winwood's previous tenure in the Spencer Davis Group. But classic tunes like "Dear Mr. Fantasy," "Paper Sun" and "Empty Pages" still made the band a lock for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, which inducted the band in 2004.
