A Few Videos

Cover of "In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed"

(This video is basically a slideshow that was released late in 2024. The soundtrack was of the Original Crosstown Traffic playing a cover of "In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed" by The Allman Brothers Band. It was recorded in the late Jim Coleman’s basement by Troy Turner, CBC Radio, Corner Brook, using a handheld recorder during an interview prior to our 2019 reunion. There was no post recording production and there was only one take.)

Journey to Center, Pulse, Groove 2023

(This is a video released by Drummer Tom Alteen, Bearing Edge Studio. The video includes a new tune entitled “South Carolina Swing” that was written by Keyboardist and Singer/Songwriter John Moore.

The mix was mastered by Charlie Barfoot, Charlie Barfoot Music Studio.)
