Product Information

Esoteric Recordings are pleased to announce a new remastered edition of the wonderful 1972 debut album by Jim Capaldi. The album was recorded whilst Jim’s band Traffic was on a brief hiatus due to Steve Winwood being indisposed.
Mainly recorded at the legendary Muscle Shoals studio in Alabama, the album featured the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section of Roger Hawkins (Drums), David Hood (Bass) and Barry Beckett (keyboards), along with a host of guests such as Steve Winwood, Chris Wood, Paul Kossoff, Dave Mason, Ric Grech, Jim Gordon, Mike Kellie & Trevor Burton. Featuring tracks such as ‘Eve’, ‘Don’t Be A Hero’ and ‘Open Your Heart’, "Oh How We Danced” was a superb debut from one of Britain’s most talented musicians.
This Esoteric Recordings reissue includes the bonus track "Going Down Slow All The Way” and has been re-mastered from the original master tapes. The reissue includes a booklet that fully restores all original album artwork and features a new essay.

Rezensionen

,,In Traffic-Pausen 1972 und 1974 legte Drummer Jim Capaldi selbst Hand und Kehle an, und der Interessent wird von Rockgrößen geradezu überschwemmt: neben den US-Muscle-Shoals-Assen Hawkins, Hood und Beckett sind Paul Kossoff, Mike Kellie, Ric Grech, Jim Gordon, Trevor Burton und die Traffic-Kollegen Winwood, Mason und Wood involviert. Sie alle spielen, klar, routiniert erstklassig." (Good Times, Juni / Juli 2012)
