Dave Mason, the guitarist who co-founded the British rock band, Traffic, back in 1967, has passed away at age 79. He helped shape that group's psychedelic sound before they got inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame in 2004. Traffic blew up with tracks like Hole in my Shoe and Paper Sun, and Mason wrote Feelin' Our Right, which Joe Cocker turned into a massive hit. He bounced in and out of the band amid some creative clashes but left a mark early on. Fans and families shared the news on his social media, describing how he slipped away peacefully on April 19th after dinner with his wife in there, Carson Valley Home. It's a bittersweet storybook close to a life full of music. Mason then launched a killer solo career in the U.S. Dropping the 1977 hit We Just Disagree and racking up three gold albums. He jammed with legends like Kimmy Hendrix, George Harrison, The Rolling Stones, and Fleetwood Mac. His catalog
