@jroxx11211 Check out Evelyn Glenni, very mostly deaf since age 12, a percussionist who listens by feeling the vibe, most pronouncedly thru her feet. But yeah, it would suck big time, and let that be a lesson to us all, vs assaulting or ears.

@MusicIsDeadToday I Got to see bonham with zeppelin at the garden in NYC 6/7/77, he was a beast behind those drums, sadly, i didnt get to see moon, i saw one of the first who shows after he died in '78 and kenny jones stepped in, the who was great too but obviously could never be the same without moon the loon behind the kit, definitely the 2 greatest drummers that ever lived! and both died way to young!!
@MusicIsDeadToday Dude, you have to listen to Baker Gurvitz Army. Ginger Baker isn't just a one-trick pony. He also did some amazing stuff with the Ginger Baker Trio (with Bill Frisell and Charlie Haden) and BBM (Baker, Bruce, Moore), among others.
it was just great until they got the supergroup status. then it went to their heads and they went shit. especially clapton. his solo stuff isnt even worth mentioning
@drew23ski ; the supergroup "status" was bestowed upon them during the Cream era. Clapton never thought his playing was that great. He listened to live Cream tapes before shows to try to figure out what the audience wanted.
Albert wrote and recorded it,and countless thousands of white kids on both sides of the Atlantic were introduced to it,and,indirectly,to him,by this recording. I know this LP like the back of my hand,I still have the vinyl pressing of it from '68, and I just now noticed two things: Baker's drumming is sort of the "soul" beat of the era turned inside out; and Eric's fills never intrude on Jack's vocals (as B.B.'s and Albert's never intrude on their own), as if E.C. and J.B. are sharing a brain.
@tuxguys "Born Under A Bad Sign": Music by Booker T Jones, organ/piano w/"Booker T & the MGs", the "Stax" recording band, who played on all of Albert's late-60s crossover hits. Lyrics by great "Stax" records soul singer, William Bell. Produced by Al Jackson Jr, drummer w/Booker & the MGs".
Great info, both posts, my compliments. (Incidentally, I sat in with Jabo, JB's drummer, at a gig in Mobile, AL about 30 years ago, and not surprisingly, he, like Baker, played great jazz.)
@t:Last I did before finding your response: Listened to 'Dont Cry No More' , Bobby Bland, with Jabo -killing- it. Very 'live'-sounding set, not all that different from Baker's.
First time I played collection "Heavy Cream" for a group of stoned buddies at a Marquette High School party which included this masterpiece cover they all owned some vinyl by Cream within the week.
Old Man Again: Cream was the Highest Eric Clapton ever reached...Cream's music trancended R&R...Coccaine????? I Shot The Sherrif ???? Realy...! He, Ginger and Bruce were the best.... Before heroin...
Old Man Again: Cream was the Highest Eric Clapton ever reached...Cream's music trancended R&R...Coccaine????? I Shot he Sherrif ???? Realy...! He, Ginger and Bruce were the best.... Before heroin...
@TimMoraal88 i didnt care for hendrix as much as i like eric and his music and bands like traffic, blind faith, cream, etc hes just my favorite thats all although i do love all amazing guitarists dead or alive srv, bb king, santana etc
@sun: Hendrix, Clapton, & SRV would've been dramatically different players if they'd never heard & emulated Albert King. Clapton talks mostly about BB King & Buddy Guy lately, but as far as influences you can actually hear in the playing on his best old stuff, it's Albert King, Freddy King, & Otis Rush that made Clapton Clapton. All due credit to him for forging it into his own original style
@lazur1 Bout time somebody made some sense out of all this bullshit and their petty arguments! You can hear Albert King's influence is Clapton's "stinging" attack on guitar which was a hallmark of Albert King! Thanks!
@azul: You make a good point: Closest thing to resolving matters of taste is agreeing to disagree. But really: When taste in blues is the issue, chocolate's usually better ;-)
When I first heard Wheels of Fire in 1973 when I was 13 years old I thought it was so "ground breaking." By the way it was the first L.P. I bought. And it turned out to be by mistake. My brother knew that I liked to play the drums so he suggested Wheels of Fire to me because Billy Cobham was great on the drums. It was suppose to be Birds of Fire by the Mahavishnu Orchestra instead of Wheels of Fire by Cream. He couldn't think of the name of the band, but he thought the album was Wheels of Fire.
no suits and ties...no smiles on their faces...walked out and kicked yer ass... listen to the base line...boom boom boom boom boom.boom! and add ..."i been down since i began to crawl . ...what a hook.. and ginger baker and clapton... every cream tune that jack bruce sang....will kick yer ass..slick
Seattle $5 @ Eagles Auditorium and a teenager. Man I'm glad I have lived when I have lived. The best music ever. The little band Blind Faith wasn't too shabby either, nor Derick and the Dominos hahaha.
Clapton would disagree. There was that one fateful day when Clapton jammed with Hendrix for the first time, and threw his guitar down 15 minutes in, yelling at his manager "You didn't tell me he was that fucking good!"
@yamamonkey actually your telling the overhyped version of the story all that really happened was clapton stood there and watched he never fainted or went OMG HE IS FUCKING GOOD he just stood back and watched.
@TheVoodooochile Jimi is just letting it flow on his version. This is a SONG. Jimi's is more of him just showing us that he is not only the greatest rock guitarist ever, but also the greatest blues guitarist of all time. Hands down. Now, Clapton is FUCKING AMAZING, but sadly, still doesn't touch Jimi. Just think of EC as Kobe and Jimi as MJ.
@want2beSRV That line's much more believable from Jack than from Albert: It'd be pretty easy for some fat chick to carry skinny little Jack, but Albert was a big, big man. I can't see it happening.
@SRV: re: "mix of new & old". Albert's original recording was a considered a drastically new way for blues to be played, just as much as Cream's later version also was. The kicker: Albert's was released in '67, Cream's came out less than 12 months later in '68. So much for "digging way back into the old blues vault" ;-)
@ezekialwheel Yeah I'm gettin older by the hour . Anyway Kieth Emerson played keyboards , Carl Palmer , drums , & Greg Lake ,Bass & vocals . They were a true 'Supergroup ' .Dontcha think ??
@ezekialwheel freddie king is well underated man, he's a genious. muddy was a full grown m-a-n. i found a record the other day by someone called T-bone walker, you should check him out. i only brought it cos his face looked funky.
My first rock concert was at the Avalon, Cream, John Mayall and the Blues Breakers, Nov 1967. I was 17....Later I and some friends ran the Poppycock in Palo Alto, Ca, High and University ave. 1969. We were 19, we had the place to ourselves!! Those were the days my friends....Lighting Hopkins, Dan Hicks, New riders of the Purple Sage, you name it.....
@mccurryburg Man Jack Bruce's bass makes stone crumble to dust. Clapton's slow hands and Bruce's bass..... Only thing that is a bonus at my age is that I got to see them live
@simeondark Ditto - they played my college and I stood at the edge of the stage, a few feet from Clapton's knees. They're still paragons of bluesy power. I'm digging my sixties and these guys still move me down to the marrow.
@ezekialwheel Ok ill break it down for you.... Ok every video I watch there is always this loser that comes on the video and posts stupid shit...... you post "Check out the awesomenes at 0:01 - 3:10" Seriously why did you feel the need to post that???? It makes you look like a 13 yr old, its just a retarded post to make and YOU POSTED IT. The gay comment was just me making it clear you look like a fucking homo posting dumb comments like that. I know the truth!!!
@ezekialwheel check out the gayness that is (ezekialwheel)........ To be blunt, I'm watching this vid because I know how fucking awesome it is. I dont need 13 yr olds sneaking outa bed to post shit on youtube..... I'll give u 1 thing, u do have good music taste!!!!
I'm a rock climber, if you hadn't guessed by my handle. There is a pretty darn hard big wall climbing route on Yosemite's most [in]famous big wall named Born Under A Bad Sign, and which I have climbed. Thanks for uploading this!
@1foot2winVidMag You have NOT reached the suicide hotline. You are listening to Eric Clapton and Cream on YouTube. Drink some water or gatoraid and watch the most mindless tv ever. The shrooms will stop freaking you out sooner if you do that. Also recommended is a bunch of B vitamins and maybe a small bite to eat., Best wishes. And if Cream makes you hold a knife to your wrist, I don't think you should listen to Dead Label Society.I am serious.
@BonjourHetalia Maybe you think it doesn't sound like Jack Bruce because he's singing in a lower register than usual. The guy has an incredible range - either that or he'd been on the Jack Daniels the night before.
In a discussion with my fellow classmate i had said that pop artist do not last and she responded by saying they are going to last so i said do you know the Bee Gees? and she said no so i got up and said
Clapton was at his best with a Gibson, in my opinion. I'm more of a Strat fan myself, but his guitar playing with Derek and the Dominos and on his solo albums simply never matched his work with Cream.

@mccurryburg Man Jack Bruce's bass makes stone crumble to dust. Clapton's slow hands and Bruce's bass..... Only thing that is a bonus at my age is that I got to see them live

@simeondark Ditto - they played my college and I stood at the edge of the stage, a few feet from Clapton's knees. They're still paragons of bluesy power. I'm digging my sixties and these guys still move me down to the marrow.

I'm a rock climber, if you hadn't guessed by my handle. There is a pretty darn hard big wall climbing route on Yosemite's most [in]famous big wall named Born Under A Bad Sign, and which I have climbed. Thanks for uploading this!

Hi ezekial.Yes you can type in "four until late" and it pops up, try the first choice,i.e.

That should do it for you.This was two years ('66) before Wheels of Fire came out.They really were the hottest thing smoking at the time.

i do not condone suicide it kills everyone you love just saying

@1foot2winVidMag You have NOT reached the suicide hotline. You are listening to Eric Clapton and Cream on YouTube. Drink some water or gatoraid and watch the most mindless tv ever. The shrooms will stop freaking you out sooner if you do that. Also recommended is a bunch of B vitamins and maybe a small bite to eat., Best wishes. And if Cream makes you hold a knife to your wrist, I don't think you should listen to Dead Label Society.I am serious.

BonjourHetalia 1 year ago
@BonjourHetalia Maybe you think it doesn't sound like Jack Bruce because he's singing in a lower register than usual. The guy has an incredible range - either that or he'd been on the Jack Daniels the night before.

Discussion Over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Clapton was at his best with a Gibson, in my opinion. I'm more of a Strat fan myself, but his guitar playing with Derek and the Dominos and on his solo albums simply never matched his work with Cream.
