Saw this earlier today. Very talented musician. His career saw a lot of hopping around. Guess he can jam with Jimi again. “Posterity! You will never know how much it cost the present Generation to preserve your Freedom! I hope you will make good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven, that I ever took half the Pains to preserve it.” ― John Adams "Fire can be our friend; whether it's toasting marshmallows, or raining down on Charlie." - Principal Skinner. | |||

Thanks for posting. I saw it mentioned last night in the chat watching Collect CO. YouTube auction (addicting to watch). I have several LPs of his. Actually read his Wiki last night, left Traffic and returned like a dozen times it seems. Will spin some Dave in his honor. | |||

As Belwolf mentioned, he played on a LOT of recordings and probably a bunch we don't even know about. SIGforum: For all your needs! Imagine our influence if every gun owner in America was an NRA member! Click the box>>> | |||

Just listened to a live album a few days ago, A shade of Blues (2025). Very enjoyable and brought me back a few decades. Liked Traffic a lot. 0-0 "OP is a troll" - Flashlightboy, 12/18/20 | |||

I'll use the Red Key |
I liked Traffic's Feelin' Alright (written by Dave). And I think the best covers of it are the Grand Funk Railroad and Joe Cocker versions. Donald Trump is not a politician, he is a leader, politicians are a dime a dozen, leaders are priceless. | |||

Yeah, I actually think Cocker's version is the best...better than the original. SIGforum: For all your needs! Imagine our influence if every gun owner in America was an NRA member! Click the box>>> | |||

I didn't follow his solo music much but a big fan of Traffic. It seems like every month we lose a musical / film great from my youth. "But, as luck would have it, he stood up. He caught that chunk of lead." Gunnery Sergeant Carlos Hathcock "If there's one thing this last week has taught me, it's better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it."

Similar to hberttmank, I did not follow Dave Mason too closely, did not own any of his albums, but did buy some of his 45rpm singles, "Only You Know, I Know" is one I remember owning. Even though he wasn't a household name like The Who, Bowie, Led Zeppelin, etc, Mason got a lot of radio airplay, how I primarily heard his music. Plus the guy played with EVERYONE, from Hendrix, Clapton, The Stones, etc. Including the next guy, someone who Mason met in a recording studio in the early 80s, and asked him to sing background vocals. And apparently the guy knew of Mason's music, he used to cover Feeling Alright. Same producer who made Boz Scaggs Silk Degrees.
