Traffic founder Dave Mason left a fine legacy along with missed opportunity

I was really struck by how much Jim Capaldi did the talking – he seemed to be the main spokesperson. Steve Winwood, the singer, spoke briefly at the end, along with Chris Wood’s sister. It was so cool to hear their British accents! It was a little surprising though, because even though Mason is from the West Midlands too, he didn’t have the same accent at all.
