THESE GUYS ARE AWESOME!! CREAM - WHITE ROOM (REACTION)

[@56music64]

Ginger Baker one of the best drummers ever. He was the first to have the unique "jungle" beat. Clapton on that guitar! This song blew my mind at aged 12, I have loved Cream since.

[@dougca7086]

Eric Clapton rated the second best guitarist of all time by Rolling Stone magazine and is the only person inducted in the rock and roll Hall of Fame three different times

[@marksavoie5350]

They were named Cream because they were considered “The cream of the crop”. The best musicians at their at instruments in England at the time. No argument here. Strong jazz and blues influence

[@christinalikoski4937]

Never knew that Mark thanks for the knowledge Australia 💕 Christina

[@davidsafford1423]

One of the most influential bands of all time

[@dagmar.6954]

This was one of the super groups of the 60's. Everyone of the 3 guys (Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker & Eric Clapton) was super talented but they also had big egos. So they didn't always get a long. They all came from previous successful bands. But in the few short years they were together they produced some classic songs such as "Crossroads", "Born Under A Bad Sign", "Tales Of Brave Ulysses", "White Room", "Strange Brew", "Sunshine Of Your Love", "SWLABR" etc.

[@SquirminHermanthe1eyedGerman]

and my favorite Strange Brew

[@eviekelpie1]

@@SquirminHermanthe1eyedGerman mine too!

[@realcoolbreeze]

A great song !👍All 3 were incredibly talented musicians. Were all in other great bands too. Eric Cjapton a top tier guitarist among the best ever. The You Look Wonderful Tonight singer also sang Cocaine back in the day too. Great sounding song. Just a great pick from a truly rock and roll band that inspired decades of musicians.🔥🔥

[@SquirminHermanthe1eyedGerman]

@@realcoolbreeze I listen to more of his blues songs the past 40+ years like "Driftin", "Last Fair Deal Goin Down" & one of my favorites especially the live version of "Early in the Morning" recorded at the Budokan in Japan 1979 plus all his collaborations with other legendary blues artists ☮

[@nedeast6845]

@@SquirminHermanthe1eyedGermanMe too, Strange brew is such a spooky clever song, I need to listen again

[@delisamarchetti5926]

This song has a special meaning for me. When I was about 10 year old my 20 year old brother got a new stereo system and gave me his old one. This was a big deal. Little kids didn't usually have access to their own stereos, only. teenagers if you were lucky :) I didn't have any records of my own to play on it. My big brother gave me some albums and a couple 45's he said were scratched and he didn't listen to anymore. The 45 was this song by Cream, and the albums were from the Rolling Stones. I rocked out to this song every day. I spent every allowance I had after that buying 45's . Enjoying music became a lifelong passion. I really thank my brother for introducing to really good music and helping to explain to me how to listen to music, to appreciate the different instruments and the lyrics. I was very fortunate. This song brings back such happy memories for me. Think I am going to call my brother today and thank him again! :)

[@waltw4537]

I know you are digging this one. Ginger Baker was a master!! Only Eric is left. Jack Bruce was a very original bass player. Cream! A rhythmic freight train rolling thru! Hey Shawn! Rock on!

[@stanzaloan3454]

YES!! I only have a few hero's that still walk among us. Is this a correct sentence 🤔 It seems a bit awkward? 😆

[@pitapanda8319]

Must react to my favorite Cream song & personal anthem for 1969 -> "Badge".

[@elricmoorcock]

Actually Badge was a George Harrison song, that he gave to friend Clapton. In thanks Clapton stole Harrison's wife.

[@jeffputnam3582]

Saw them in Chicago on that '68 farewell tour. One of the most exciting shows I've ever seen! I had seen them a year earlier, but this concert had a different vibe. There was acrimony between bassist, Jack Bruce, and drummer, Ginger Baker, that created tension and uncertainty. Their songs started normally but quickly turned into fantastic jam sessions with each player trying to outdo the others. Unforgettable! Your reaction was to the studio version of "White Room" with some live film. Fun to see anyway! You got to hear a great song and can put faces to the players. More Cream, please!

[@normandavidtidiman9918]

Lucky man to have seen them back then. My elder brother who introduced me to them at age 6 or 7 was at that Albert Hall final concert in London.

[@d.j.starling3559]

Jack Bruce on bass & lead vocal, Eric Clapton on guitar, Ginger Baker on drums. EC does great lead vocals & one of the greatest guitar solos ever on Cream's 1968 live version of Crossroads. Give it a listen!! Born Under A Bad Sign is another of my favorites. Lots of great songs by Cream in a relatively very short time as a group -- a mere 2 years, 1966-68. And now, more than 50 years later, they are still considered one of the greatest rock bands that ever was!

[@rickb.4168]

Eric also sang vocals on it.

[@DawnSuttonfabfour]

A house album in our house during the 70s as my parents loved Cream; we had the album with the vegetables on so we called it Salad Cream! I was lucky enough to be surrounded on all sides with great music. It was GROOVY guys. This is one of my dad's favourite trax.

[@michaelscott7462]

Jack Bruce had voice for the ages.Fond memories of lava lamps, incense, good weed, and wonderful friends. Great reaction.

[@Tonidolls]

My hubby liked this kind of music..at 75 ..still does..

[@michellewheatley2007]

This is the reason Eric Clapton was inducted into the Rock n Roll hall of fame the first time. They rock!

[@sarahdee374]

Sublime! Great music and sure takes me back to my friend and I locking ourselves in her bedroom and listening to the whole album (on vinyl certainly), stoned! Good times.

[@robertaccornero7172]

I did a year in the Nam 69-70 and this song was played everywhere , everyday every other hour! it was like our new freakout national anthem!!

[@richardfordham931]

I was only 2 when they came out, so I did kind of miss them, but I had the fun of playing some Cream when I was bass player in a cover band many years ago.

[@jillw4983]

The late great Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker. Rock on Eric Clapton

[@sabrinamarkos7099]

How can you lose with these guys? Clapton on guitar? Baker on drums? I loved these guys. Cream was the - - it! 👍🏾👵🏿🔥❤

[@navigatingwithnana]

Yeh BABY, a 10!!!!! Groundbreaking sound! I was just a tween when this was released. I'll never forget the feelings running through my veins when this genre of music came on the scene. What "freedom of expression" can do to the soul is miraculous! It made this 12 year old girl feel empowered... wanting to be the "real" me... uncontrolled by society's rules. I'm so thankful I was born into such an era. 🥰

[@LarryNeie-lj7zc]

Jack Bruce vocal is spot on. Fans should give a listen to his first solo album, Songs for a Tailor. Most notable a song titled Rope Ladder to the Moon. A spaced out acoustic guitar classic!

[@psrandy1]

I saw CREAM at the Grande Ballroom in Detroit1967. That entire group had super musicians. Clapton always did play lights out and sing with the best. Ginger Baker and his off-beats jazz style drumming was my hero in those days and Jack Bruce was one of THE best Bass players of the time. Man I miss those days. What groups we were blessed to see in Detroit in the early to late 60s/Early 70s

[@jalandacurry4585]

YALL ON FIRE TONIGHT!!!!! THIS IS MY JAM RIGHT HERE!!!

[@jonnno2439]

I got Wheels Of Fire double album on vinyl for my 17th birthday in 1968 when it first came out. White Room is the first track on the studio disc. Of course I played it so much that I wore it out and had to get another vinyl copy of it , which I still play. Magical times.

[@cindyphifer970]

Sunshine of your love is another great song by Cream

[@artee5925]

Hey Shawn &Mel....Love your station. This here group called Cream were around for only a couple of years. But what they have done and acheived in music was amazing. They also were one of the very few 3-member bands in rock history. They had 2 lead singers. Jack Bruce, who you hear singing lead and the bass guitarist, and Eric Clapton with the high voice, and playing guitar. Also, the great "Ginger" Baker (beet red hair) on drums.....Shiiit, what a band they were.

[@jtbear70]

This music is timeless,

[@johndalley1288]

Eric Clapton was part of the group but a few years later formed Derrick and the Domino's and had a big hit Lay La. Don't know if you have reacted to it, if not, I highly recommend it.

[@reverbscherzo7850]

But it HAS TO BE the electric version….NOT the acoustic (so lame in comparison).

[@normandavidtidiman9918]

It's 'Derek' & 'Layla',and it was only a couple of years post Cream.

[@rnrbunt]

They were my very first concert. Amazing.

[@completecharleston7142]

FYI - This was the studio version with video synched to look like they were playing live. Most people know the legacy of Eric Clapton (he was a major influence back when I was learning to play guitar), but bassist/singer/cellist Jack Bruce was a force in his own right, also had some interesting solo albums after Cream broke up ("Rope Ladder To The Moon" is one example). Clapton and drummer Ginger Baker formed a one album banger group "Blind Faith" with Steve Winwood as singer / keyboardist. Highly suggest you listen / react to "Presence Of The Lord" or "Can't Find My Way Home", both amazing songs.

[@eviekelpie1]

One of the influential bands coming from the late 60s, with a very young Eric Clapton on guitar. Must do Strange Brew and Crossroads by Cream. Gee we had such a great variety of music in the 60s/70s when we were kids/teenagers. Didn't appreciate it back then like I do now

[@brendabarker524]

Just a masterpiece from Cream ❤️

[@Mike-rk8px]

This concert was on November 26, 1968 at the famous Royal Albert Hall (it seats about 5,500 people) in London, and it was a HUGE deal. My parents were at this concert, and they still talk about it. They were sitting 8 rows back in front of the stage, and it was so LOUD that the floor and the seats were vibrating with the music. It wasn’t until 2005 that they played together again for several shows at the Royal Albert Hall, all the songs from that show are on KZbin. Also on KZbin is the entire 1968 Cream farewell concert.
