FULL LENGTH UNCUT AND DIGITALLY RESTORED! Eric Clapton Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce made music together for less than three years but in that time they became arguably the greatest rock band ever - Cream. Cream made four classic rock albums which sold more copies in 24 months than the Bible had sold in the previous 24 years. Fresh Cream was their debut album which was released in 1966. Disraeli Gears in 1967 featured the anthem ""Sunshine of your Love"". Wheels oF Fire was a double a
When guitarist Eric Clapton joined drummer Ginger Baker and lead vocalist/bass player Jack Bruce for four shows at London's Royal Albert Hall in May last year 37 years after Cream split it was hailed by fans and critics alike as the most eagerly awaited reunion of all time. In the wake of these appearances Clapton Bruce and the notoriously reclusive Baker have been persuaded to talk at length about their time together. They reminisce about their first meeting their early fame conquering America and the final painful split. They discuss how it felt to reunite at the Royal Albert Hall ironically where they played their last ever concert on November 26th 1968. They also reveal their thoughts on whether there might be a future for Cream. Aside from the band members a host of contemporaries and associates give their own fascinating insights into the life and times of this most influential of groups. Tom McGuiness of Manfred Mann fame recalls how he formed a band called The Roosters in 1963 with the then 17-year-old Clapton. Also supplying fascinating anecdotes and debunking long-held myths are the likes of Manfred Mann's Paul Jones Yes co-founder Chris Squire BB King promoter Harvey Goldsmith Chris Welch Rolling Stone editor Dave Fricke road manager Ben Palmer and Pete Brown lyricist and Cream's unofficial fourth member.

Cream epitomised mid 1960's blues-rock. With their roots grounded in Chicago blues the group's excursions into lengthy solos and free-form improvisation blazed a trail for others to follow. Combining the genius of Clapton fresh from success with The Yardbirds and Bluesbreakers plus the pedigree of drummer Ginger Baker and bassist Jack Bruce Cream became rock's first 'supergroup' breaking new ground with extended improvisations in live shows and forays into psychedelia.
