When the Eagle Flies was the band's fourth consecutive studio album to reach the top 10 on the Billboard Chart and have gold album status. The album would portray a bleaker tone than previous outings and peaks superbly on "Graveyard People" and "Walking in the Wind". Traffic toured to support the release, but they disbanded in the middle of the tour in 1974. Remastered from the original tapes, pressed on 180g heavy weight vinyl and artwork caringly overseen and interpreted.
