[@alanhandleman6513]

The trio is the perfect sized group, because it allows all three musicians to be heard and appreciated. Jack was an aggressive bassist, Ginger was an eclectic drummer, and they both brought the best out of Eric that he had to give. Their music was a conversation, each of them playing off of the others. It was marvelous; they were THE CREAM.

Jack was still recovering from his surgery during these shows, so it was amazing that he did as well as he did. It was just so amazing to see them at all after all this time. This song was pretty weak, but they had a lot to live up to.

So thankful that these gentlemen reunited to give us these final performances at the Royal Albert Hall and short tours there after! Brilliant!

[@tdunster2011]

Jack Bruce was the issue. He treated Ginger Baker like shit. Clapton probably spent more time keeping the peace between them than actually playing guitar.

[@robmorrison1043]

There was no short tour, there were these shows and 3 at Madison Square Garden. EC said that they were only going to do the RAH shows, but the $ offer to do the Garden shows was tough not to do. He has said that he wishes that they would have left it at the RAH as he thought they sounded thin in a bigger building like the Garden, and the old bad habits and disagreements between JB and GB started again. He did say that he was glad that both GB and JB would be $ solvent due to the extra shows.

[@stratman7810]

I'm sitting here in lockdown in the Canaries and chanced upon your channel which I have found enjoyable as I have been a guitarist most of my life. I have just watched this video and it's a long story not worth telling here, but I was paid to go and see Cream live in 1967 at the Wellington Club, Dereham in Norfolk. Two support bands were on first, one of which were a superb Beach Boys cover band. Obviously Cream were the finale and wow, they were just magic. I can still feel their presence to this day. What disapointed me about this video is Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce were at loggerheads at the time and Eric Clapton stuck in the middle. I asked my wife, who is quite a bit younger than me and has never seen them live, what she thought of the performance. She said although she like some of Eric's performances having heard his playing often enough, they looked like a bunch of sad old men just going through the motions. Unfortunately and sadly I have to agree. I had seen Clapton quite often before Cream when he was playing with other bands, at the Orford Cellar in Norwich. He was good then but, as I said before, live with Cream back in 1967 he was something else. Interestingly though he had that strange cold back then that you see mentioned in the Farewell Cream Concert from the Albert Hall. I am still playing guitar to this day but mainly stick to playing and writing slow numbers as I have carpal tunnel and arthritis in my hands which cuts my speed down.

[@roberthorn333]

Baker and Moon are so unique as drummers. Jack Bruce was likewise a unique and special bassist and vocalist. Clapton so smooth with the vibrato and moving along the neck, and he became a great vocalist, too. All that together created the first supergroup. What a fantastic band they were!

[@danielcobbins9050]

John Bonham was unique as well.

[@roberthorn333]

@@danielcobbins9050 John Bonham was unique, and widely considered to be the best. That's why I didn't give him mention, as it's assumed that he was the best.

Keith Moon was not a fully formed musician like Ginger Baker. Lumping those two together is idiotic but that’s my personal opinion of course.

[@jysmtl]

Arthur C couldn’t disagree more. They belong together. As do Bruce and Entwistle.

[@arthurc1971]

jysmtl Actually I got that line from Eric Clapton. He said that even though Ginger was antisocial and slightly mad he could not be compared to most drummers because he was a musician and not a drummer. He was a fully formed musician in every way and that he knew no one that had his talent. Eric’s words not mine. But maybe I’m wrong. That’s why having lively conversations is so much fun.

PETER FRAMPTON WAS MY FIRST CONCERT... COMES ALIVE!

[@stanspb763]

I saw them live for the first time when they were playing Winterland in San Francisco in 1968. I was not really into music before moving to SF as a 17 year old, alone in 67 but fell into the music scene because my nerdiness in electronics became known to musicians. The year before I was visiting SF for an electronics show and some new friends took me to Filmore and heard Paul Butterfield Blues Band do one song that changed my life trajectory, literally...a 23 minute East West, If you have not hear it, there is something for everyone in that one song, possibly one of the most influential songs ever. So I was somewhat prepared to appreciate of Cream although my favorite band was and is, the Dead. The energy of and urgency of the rev up Crossroads that night was the first time I heard a band forget their rehearsals and just flow from the momentum of the very aware connected audience while taking it to another level...and everyone in the place on Acid might have had a part:>) Clapton was in a zone only the audience knew, ahead of Jack and Ginger a bar much of the song but it made more sense than the traditional version. But that still is the best live performance I heard of theirs and was a big fan. I heard them 3 other times and loved each performance. A lot of nuanced music from a 3 piece power trio. They are thought of as a power trio but their power was not in volume, shows at that time did not have the sub-bass that overpowers the senses now in shows, so the audience could actually hear the details, there was almost nothing below 60hz. It also meant shows did not need $3million is pa systems because of every octave lower in range for a given acoustic power, its a log function in power and money, and fewer people wanting to sit through the stomach-churning sub-bass. I came to believe after about 75, concerts were merely exercises in front of deaf house mixers to ego trip. The only band that could be loud but also sound good was the Grateful Dead, but they spent a fortune on reinventing live sound several times. But hearing cream in a smaller venue like that, and going off script was a real highlight of my music experiences. At the time we did not know this 3 piece band was going to be a legendary band, but they captured the attention of a lot of music-savvy people that night. Live music was how we heard music and radio was not so important except for one that captured the street sense or focused it, KMPX and one air personality who was a music and culture critic and educator of a generation Tom Donahue who, for less than one year created and left the radio station that changed all stations from top 40 to what was called Underground which featured a wild mixed programming of just what the DJ felt needed to be heard. Within 2 years Top-40 was dead in the US and FM took over from AM because of that influence. The trend continued after the staff went on strike over Donahue's firing and they and their entire audience shifted to KSAN. That was the atmosphere Cream played in San Francisco which was considered the center of the new music universe. What was new was simply the width and breadth of the music taste that took to jazz, folk, rock, big band, Chicago Blues and Delta Blues, Americana, soul etc. Any venue of the time was hosting groups from 3-5 of these different genres on the same playbill. Wherelse would Indian classical music by an unknown(to us kids) Ravi Shankar, the Grateful Dead and Blue Cheer(first heavy metal band, a loud power trio) and an 80-year-old Delta bluesman all share the same stage on the same night and get equal respect and appreciation? All the bands were very different, and none copied anyone else in that unique heady period in SF. This later performance is so relaxed like a pair old worn slippers, it feels cozy and warm unhurried and familiar like old shipmates recalling wild times decades before. They all had it still, vocals strong clear and precise, the drumming crisp and tight, bass agile and athletic, guitar light and refined. I like this more relaxed pace as a song, but the way they played in that show at Winterland in 1968 had an urgency and whole different feel of need to get the notes out, it really gave off a powerful energy that everyone felt. No left that room indifferent. That one performance probably influenced every musician in the city and at that time every 3rd person was a musician. I had talked to Steve Miller who was there also and we both remembered how much impact that performance was on us. It did not change my life like hearing East-West literally did but it changed the way I listened to music. I spent most of my life in recording and it surely impacted how projects were done, not technically but in musicality. East-West changed my planned career in electronic engineering in RF and shifted to recording and design of equipment for stage and studio. I still can't play a lick but have a pretty good sense of the song. To me, it was always the song, not the genre or technical character of the parts but how the song communicates and everyone is an expert in that for themselves.

[@rebbeshort]

Nicely said Stan. Thanks for those thoughts and remembrances. East/West has always been one of my favorites too.

easily one of the top 10 most recognizable riffs of all time.

[@theblytonian3906]

Yes. Instantly recognisable and appealing to the ear. Stood then and stands out now In what was a world of such creative talent at that time. Eclipsed rather than forgotten only because, within the space of just a few short years it was followed by such monumental rock genius mega hits with legendary riffs as "Whole Lotta Love" from Led Zeppelin, "Alright Now" from Free - though for me, simple par scale though it is though I didn't know it at the time, in the delivery their really memorable instantly recognisable riff is from "Wishing Well", and "Paranoid" from Black Sabbath to name just a few before the epic, unforgettable "Smoke On The Water" riff in '74 and although probably lesser known, the anchoring, driving base riff by Golden Earring from "Radar Love". But in '68, "Sunshine of Your Love" and "Disraeli Gears" really stood out against all comers, including The Beatles who were then still together and active, releasing what was really another double A single with "Hey Jude" and "Revolution" in '68.

[@stinkboneorien1270]

It's really about time you feature Eric Clapton as he was and how he shook the guitar word with the original 1966-68 Cream not the watered-down reunion of 2005. I saw Clapton with Cream in 1968 and you cannot imagine the power of hearing him soar on his Gibson SG "Fool" through a dual Marshall Stack at FULL volume from 10 feet away. It was like the iconic Winterland "Crossroads" recording at 100 times the volume and far more visceral effect. The sound was unlike anything ever heard before, and his guitar during the late 60s, along with Hendrix, literally redefined the entire electric guitar landscape. More so, Clapton, even though the Hendrix industry hypes JH as a supernatural deity who still wins every guitar poll by default as if he was somehow the greatest guitarist in the galaxy 49 years after his unfortunate demise but if the truth ever surfaces in this planet which is rare, it was Cream era Clapton that was far more emulated & admired by guitar players and hopefully history will show that his style and tone, using Gibson guitars and Marshall stacks, has endured as one of the primary influences.....it was the gold standard of electric blues modeling and fluid vocal solos and most copied to this day although young guitarists have no idea the stylings and tone they are still using, come from Cream and Bluesbreaker era Clapton.

Great video Fil, As usual.. thanks

This music speaks for it self...listening to it now more than 40yrs after release and that it IS STILL RELEVANT, says it all. This music will never die, because it was the finale of Music. How many groups from 10 yrs ago have there music being replayed today.....I don’t know...I’m too busy buried in the 60’s...Great job once again Phil...

Grew up with the old version. Each one of the guys a band of it's own.

The guitar riff at the beginning is known worldwide. These three are rock gods... Each one of them a MASTER of his instrument. That is one of the reasons Eric is in the Rock Roll Hall of Fame three (3) times. I enjoy how Eric and Bruce give each other these I know what you are thinking. God given talent combined with lots of time spent working together. Fil once again you are right on the money in how creative they were. Rock GODS. Excellent observations!!!!!!!!! Best of luck to you young man. Jack's fret less bass impressed me. Rock ON man!!!!

Great concert, wish I could have been there, I do have the DVD and its fantastic. For any Ginger Baker fan that hasn't watched ' Beware Mr. Baker' I highly recommend it. Ginger was a F-ing madman.👍😎🤘

Man, I've been a fan of Cream for close to 50 yrs!!! Such a unique sound that instantly draws me in!! Still AMAZED that sound comes from just 3 guys!!!

[@boum62]

However good the other two are when I hear cream I just get blown away the drumming which is sometimes almost a lead in itself

[@brucebenderman7577]

One of the few songs from the 60's that featured the bass player.

I love the neck pick up. I use it when i play leads. I go to neck pick up with the tone slightly down. Its called the women tone. One day i will post, not ready for criticism. Great analysis Fil, they played well.🤙🙂🤙

[@derekclacton]

On the 1 woman tone = Eric Clapton 👍

[@robmorrison1043]

Another spot on fantastic review! Would love for you to do a video on what may be Clapton's finest live all around performance. Watch the version of Dont think twice its all right from the Dylan 30th anniversary concert at MSG. He plays with Steve Cropper, GE Smith, Duck Dunn, Booker T and Jim Keltner. On a night of top shelf artists EC stole the show. His tone, phrasing, vibrato and vocals were on a level that cannot be matched, almost like the guitar was possessed! The sound coming from his Stratocaster and touch was a once in a lifetime performance. Just watch Cropper and Smith reaction while EC is playing, their jaws are dropping.

Clapton is BRILLIANT! Never "overplays," just makes his guitar talk!
