While You See A Chance/ Vacant Chair

This is a beautiful stock copy in its original picture sleeve. This is my favorite post-Traffic Winwood number... not too slick, with a focus on tune and rhythm rather than atmosphere. Come to think of it, it's the only post-Traffic Winwood number I like, but it was certainly an excellent start to this new career. "While You See A Chance" was his first solo single. I just wish someone had advised him to cut the Genesis/Phil Collins soundalike routine... totally spoiled what was once a unique and refreshing voice in rock music. By the way, this is indeed the first pressing on the day-glo-colored Island label from the late 1970's. This 45 has an edited version of the 5:12 album cut. The sleeve is nearly flawless, and the 45 itself has Mint labels.
