Blind Faith is nearly the best album ever.
The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty"

Who would've guessed that Traffic would end up tailing behind in third place in a Traffic poll. Tongue

Blind Faith here
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Steve Winwood's 1977 solo debut is not a perfect record, but it remains a hauntingly soulful, sun-bathed Sunday afternoon album that I would never want to be without. Borrowing much from Traffic's "Walking in the Wind", it's not in hurry to go anywhere, and eschews all Cosmic Significance, yet has a quiet, nostalgic wistfulness I've never heard anyone else quite capture. Still lots of guitar, organ, and piano on this one.

It's not easy to pick a winner this time with so many good bumper to bumper albums to choose from. I'm in a Traffic gridlock at the moment. Tongue

Exactly what I was thinking when I saw this list.
Blind Faith is my pick. So melancholic with Winwood, Baker and Clapton being part of this. The first supergroup? I adore this album.
Still, it has some competition with that "Go" record by Stomu. I mean he has Michael Shrieve on drums, Klaus Schulze on synths and Al DiMeola on guitar!
Those are my two favourites here.
