Sometimes, a 12″ by 12″ square LP cover just wouldn’t do. A number of ‘shaped’ album covers appeared on record store shelves in the early 70s, and in buyers hands. The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys‘ die-cut inside provided another shape-distinct aspect that drew the eye. The Tony Wright-designed album was among the most unique of the era. Mainly because its 2-D artwork was contoured with six sides. But that only helped Traffic‘s album cover give multiple views, via the magic of optical illusion, of a three-dimensional room.
The album features the hit "Rock & Roll Stew" and the FM hit, "The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys". This is the only original Traffic album to feature two lead vocals by Jim Capaldi ("Light Up or Leave Me Alone" and "Rock & Roll Stew"). His only other unaccompanied vocal on a Traffic studio album was "Dealer" from Mr. Fantasy (1967).
