Traffic Performs 'The Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys' Live at Woodstock 94

Venue: Woodstock 94 Location: Saugerties, NY, United States Date: August 14, 1994

In August 1994, Traffic performed at Woodstock 94, showcasing their enduring appeal in a festival setting that celebrated the legacy of the original Woodstock. At this point in their career, Traffic had reformed after a hiatus, releasing the album "Far from Home" in 1994, which was their first studio album in over two decades. This live performance of "The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys" highlighted the band's signature blend of rock and jazz elements, and showcased the talents of founding member Steve Winwood, who contributed vocals and guitar. The concert came during a period marked by a nostalgic revival of classic rock, and Traffic's participation in such a landmark event underscored their continued influence on the genre. Interestingly, the band initially gained fame in the late 1960s and early 1970s, making their return to a festival that is synonymous with their formative years particularly significant.
