Featured Kernel

"Paper Sun" by Traffic is about a care-free girl on holiday, having fun jumping beach to beach with a guy she’s just met. Leaving her room in disarray, and her selfish behaviour towards her friends, she wakes up one morning lying on the beach to find that she has been left alone with no money for the bus home or a phone call. “Paper Sun” was written by Jim Capaldi and Steve Winwood, Traffic’s first single in May 1967 and the first song that Steve and Jim wrote together. The song has an unusual, psychedelic, flowing melody, sung brilliantly by Steve Winwood and features an Indian sitar, played by Dave Mason that mingles beautifully with Chris Wood’s flute and Jim Capaldi’s drums. The single charted in the UK and brought Traffic to the forefront of the “flower power” movement that swept the country at the time.
