Oddest story shared by Clapton about the three members of Cream doing acid in a garden being approached by Eric's drug dealer! Wha?

People probably are clueless about how superbly imperative this documentary is in the history of mankind. For instance, Jack & Eric came together in '87 to jam and totally enjoyed each other's company. But then, in 2005 *Cream* reunited and gave us something unbelievably magnificent!

Ginger’s third arm is the ability to read his band members. His fills and timely snare hits is what made him an incredible drummer.

Truthfully, Clapton kinda bores me as a solo artist but you put him with those two cats and something so much more electric and powerful and deep comes out. He just goes to another level that he can’t seem to get to with his hired bands cause he’s with true equals who push into new places. He’s even said that much in other interviews. Too bad they couldn’t stay together but they gifted us with some iconic music!

God they are killing it. Better than the last performance at Albert Hall, where Jack clearly didn't want to be in cream anymore. They sound the best out of all the bands that got inducted that night. One of my all time favorite groups.so

3 virtuosos, possibly each the best there has ever been in their own right/own instruments! In a Band that without doubt is THE GREATEST Rock and Blues Band / GREATEST TRIO the WORLD HAS EVER SEEN! (&probably WILL EVER SEE!) Makes me Proud to be English & British! My Dad saw them play almost weekly at the "Marquee Club" in London and my mum occasionally, along with Hendrix before and just after he broke/shot to fame on occasion back in the mid to late 60s! CANNOT imagine what that must have been like to have them playing your nearest Top-Class Music venue every week! (And many other greats at that time!) Such a tragedy about first Jack Bruce taken far too early, and then Ginger Baker! Also recently found out Clapton has had emphasaema for the last few years!! Which is NOT good! Plus a neurological disease that will eventually take his ability to play guitar away from him!(if the emphasaema doesn't get him first!) These performances ESPECIALLY the Cream Reunion concerts of 2005, we were/ARE TRULY BLESSED WITH! Along with THEIR PURE GENIUS!! Lets TREASURE CLAPTON and his playing While we ALL STILL CAN!! GOD BLESS ALL THREE GENIUSES! 🥁 🪕🎤🎸 LOVE & RESPECT FROM LONDON ENGLAND! ❤️🏴🙏

Despite all of Bruce’s many talents, it seems when he plays with his peers, it can’t last long. I can only speculate that he doesn’t like to share the spotlight. Most of his bands were well paid sidemen. Clapton was never afraid to share the spotlight. And Ginger... well, that’s a whole other can of beans. You’d best know how to keep up.

Classic clips from the South Bank Show on Eric Clapton circa 1986-87. I was watching some of the 2005 Reunion show and I remembered this clip of Clapton & Bruce playing in the backyard of Hurtwood, Clapton's house outside of London. It's crazy seeing this to think that if they did the reunion back then in say 1987, Bruce would be in top form and Clapton would be at the tail end of his drinking, i.e. not playing his best. What we got in 2005 was Clapton playing better than he had in decades and Jack was not at his best having just had a liver transplant the year previous. Still such an amazing set of shows...glad they happened.

That comment Jack makes at 1.02 us directly related and directed to Creedence Clearwater Revival members. Cream had witnessed them arguing back stage when Fogerty refused to play with Cosmo Clifford and Stu Cook. Fogerty being on his high horse again. Bruce was trying to get them to give it up, but Fogerty, being Fogerty and Mr Stubborn highhorse Ass, would not give Cook and Cliffords families and others in the audience hear CCR again. Lost me that night, and got worse since. Thanks Jack. RIP

I'm am indeed thankful that TV/film/and sound recording technology was around to have a record of this great band and music, as well as for other great band and musicians - Beatles, Elvis, Led Zeppelin, the Who, Rush, the list is endless. Now people will be able to not only hear but watch the real people perform their music a thousand years from now. A shame the technology wasn't around when Mozart and Beethoven were alive. And all of the teenagers today need to listen to/watch these musical giants while they are still alive. The musicians of today sit on the shoulders of giants. So many of these greats are well into the 70's and dying. Ginger Baker just died in Oct 2019. Only Eric is left. BB King died in 2019.

It is a crying shame that some really good bands from the 70s have so little footage available. Most bands from back then got a little footage from Saturday night special maybe in concert or don ksrhners rock concert or it's as if they didnt exist. Some bands played on AOR stations that didnt have a top forty type hit have almost nothing out there. Luckily some of them reformed when playing shows started paying a little money and we got them later in age playing a few tunes. Shows like the 1978 Texas Jam in Dallas that had Head East, Atlanta Rhythm section, Eddie Money, Van Halen as an opening act, Heart,Ted Nugent, Aerosmith and a couple I'm forgetting in my old age plus 80,000 of my closest friends but not one damn video camera in the place. They has the same rock show there until well into the 80s a nd I have never seen any video.

So true. They were such pioneers inventing progressive rock and improvising. Had they gotten along better and not broken up, they would've overshadowed Led Zeppelin. There would be endless debate about who was greater Page or Clapton, Jones or Bruce. I think Baker was far greater than Jon Bonham. Baker and Clapton thought so too. But the debates would've been endless and we music fans would've benefited by more great music from Cream.
