This is the first solo vocal that Eric recorded. He was a self-described "work in progress." He later complained that his voice was "too high" on his masterpiece "Layla." His vocal skills improved by his constant touring (get better or get lost) and his ongoing vocal lessons with a coach in London. By the mid 70's, after his hiatus (drug funk) he emerged as a very good vocalist. By the late 80's and early 90's, his fully formed mature voice gave deep meaning in his remakes of the old "blues" standards that he honored so much.

I get to see Eric’s guitar, he used on this very recording, every day I am at work. It sits in a display case, on a rotating platform, for all music fans to see. I’ve also been fortunate enough to play a few notes on it. It was a WOW moment, for me, for sure. It is an amazing 1963 Gibson ES335 in cherry red... Legendary...

Pretty sure it was the psychedelic SG, famously called "The Fool "

Oh man, S is the mother load! Cream was a mid-late 60s Supergroup. I’m sure you know Eric Clapton. Ginger Baker was a highly regarded jazz/rock drummer (recently died) and Jack Bruce played fretless bass and had a great voice, too. This song was originally written by Robert Johnson, an educated Delta blues songwriter and singer. You might want to Google him because this song is actually early Black Delta blues. Cream and so many others gave their own versions of Johnson and many other Delta blues men. Tributes to their talents, really. I have listened to rock and blues since the 1960s (my teen years) but over the years I have come to think that this version by Cream is one of the very best rock blues songs and it sounds as good in 2021 as it did in 1967. Enjoy, Jamel! Love your stuff!
