Can we all just take a minute and acknowledge the brilliance that was Traffic?

Empty pages is amazing but I don't think it's near as iconic as Low Spark

Glad/Freedom Rider, as well.

Low Spark is a great, great tune, and very well known. I don't think Traffic freaks have it as their number one, however.

Feelin' Alright, right up there too (as a generally well known song).

I wouldn't call myself a traffic freak. I love them but I'm not near familiar enough with their whole catalog

John Barleycorn Must Die (the song), is top of the tops for many.

My personal favorite, but love al the ones mentioned here. I think Empty Pages is one of the most underappreciated songs ever.

I got into them because of a Gov't Mule show where they played Low Spark. He (Warren Haynes) played it with The Dead that same year.

Dear Mr. Fantasy is probably my favorite song of theirs.
