2CD / Blu-Ray video release of this special concert staged at the Roundhouse in London on 21st January 2007 to celebrate the life and music of Traffic co-founder and acclaimed solo artist Jim Capaldi. Aside from his work with Steve Winwood and Chris Wood in Traffic, (a band inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2004), Jim also worked with many other artists and was a successful solo performer in his own right.
A wonderful house band was joined by a stellar line-up of musicians to perform their favourite Traffic and Jim Capaldi songs including Steve Winwood, Paul Weller, Pete Townshend, Joe Walsh, Yusef / Cat Stevens, Gary Moore, Bill Wyman, Jon Lord, Dennis Locorriere, Simon Kirke and many others who performed to a full house.
Originally issued in 2007, this new Esoteric Recordings edition gathers together the concert recordings on two CDs and a multi-region Blu-ray video of the concert film, issued in this format for the first time, in a clam shell box set.
‘Dear Mr Fantasy – A Celebration for Jim Capaldi’ is the ultimate document of this wonderful night of music.
