After disbanding in 1969, Traffic reunited in 1970 to release the album John Barleycorn Must Die. The band's lineup changed over the years until they disbanded again in 1975. In 1994, there was a partial reunion with Winwood and Capaldi, and in 2004 Traffic was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
