I saw Traffic at the Fillmore during this run and am pretty sure Dave Mason was not there. Haven't listened to it but I recall them being a trio.
In fact, here is info from the Garcia-related link from above. I went to one of the first shows and it was definitely the Fillmore, so I must have been there on the 14th. I do remember them having trouble with buzzing amps...not sure if that is what is occurring when Capaldi comments but I do remember him jamming along with the buzz.
"Dave Mason left the band in early 1968, starting a pattern of leaving and joining the band that would continue throughout the group's existence. When Traffic set out on their first American tour in Spring 1968, they were a trio, and it was a tribute to their talents that they could play such complex music as a trio without a bass player. Winwood generally played organ or guitar and played bass with his feet on the organ, Capaldi played drums, and Wood played saxophone and flute except when he played organ or bass.
Traffic's American tour began in San Francisco with two weekends at the Fillmore and Winterland. On March 14-15-16 they headlined over HP Lovecraft, Blue Cheer, Mother Earth and Penny Nichols, and on March 21-22-23 they were second on a bill that featured Moby Grape/Traffic/Lemon Pipers/Spirit. The fact that the weekend shows (15-16 and 22-23) were at Winterland was a sign of their drawing power, a fact due exclusively to the emergence of KMPX-fm in San Francisco."
