What are you listening to right now? (VOL II)

"On the Road" Traffic, nonSHM version but a Japanese cardboard sleeve version. It will be interesting to compare the SHM version when it gets here. I think Traffic were possibly the most under-rated band of their era and this live album is an absolute gem of jazz/rock playing.

By far and away the best version I have heard of that album. Used to hate the regular releases of it with their NR but this disc is closer to what I remember the original album sounding like Oliver.

Now moved on to a little bit of blues.

Neil Young: Live at Massey hall 1971

I grew up listening to Neil Young and have great memories of seeing him live what must be more than a few decades ago now. I just cannot stop listening to this album lately as it brings so many good memories of my youth and the 70's back to me.
