- In this archival episode of All Day Vinyl's LEGENDS Podcast from mid 2020, host Scott Dudelson speaks with Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member and Traffic Co-Founder Dave Mason.
In this clip Dave talks about his debut album "Alone Together" and why he didn't like his original vocals and felt the desire to re-record the full album in 2019. We also talk about Dave's relationship to the original Tulsa session musicians on the album including Leon Russell and Carl Radle (who he would later play with in Derek and Dominos) and what he remembers about that time.

INTERVIEW WAS CONDUCTED IN MID 2020
Shouldn’t Have Took More Than You Gave is one of my favorite songs still.
Alone Together brings back some fond memories. Excellent album and perfect for that time.
All time great classic ❤️
I remember buying Dave's first album in a record shop in Soho central London shortly after its release. The actual vinyl was designed to look like marble but Dave once said that it looked more like sick.
Classic album, I’ve got that marble vinyl too - love it
Rediscove try ing this album. So far, surprised at how well it holds up. Also , he’s like the Forest Gump of the 60’s. He crossed paths w everyone!
Totally! He had a few year period where he showed up everywhere!
Love Dave. I saw him with Traffic at Leeds University in 1967! BTW, Dave, obviously, doesn't rate himself as a singer but - and a big BUT - he is such a natural sounding singer unlike his fellow Traffic member Stevie Winwood who - particularly - back then was just doing a Ray Charles impersonation.
Great album!!
Totally, classic sound. Was surprised he didn’t like his vocals, I love the songs as is
