专辑简介

The third time around in constructing a Dave Mason compilation, Blue Thumb Records (which had been acquired by ABC Records, and which in turn would be swallowed by MCA Records) finally made a worthy selection of its cache of Dave Mason recordings from 1970-71. The Very Best Of Dave Mason was a ten-track album collecting the most memorable songs from Alone Together?"Only You Know And I Know," "Sad And Deep As You," and "Shouldn't Have Took More Than You Gave"?and live performances of such well-known Traffic songs as "Feelin' Alright?" and "Pearly Queen." While the label was still to be criticized for endlessly repackaging Mason recordings, at least this one was done right?and it's the one that remains in print. (Originally released by ABC/Blue Thumb Records as ABC/Blue Thumb 6032, The Very Best Of Dave Mason was reissued by MCA Records as MCA 715 and reissued on CD in 1987 as MCA 31169.)
