Bill Roper and I were discussing this project, which at the time I had tentatively labelled “Crossroads 2.0: The Missing Tracks”. Needless to say, I thought that this title was a little bit ponderous, and I was seeking ideas for a better name. Bill got this evil gleam in his eye, and suggested “Playing In Traffic”. Immediately visions of standing under a traffic light in the middle of a crossroads, busking with my guitar case open, and angry drivers shaking their fists at me came to mind.

I was sold.
