Well let the old, become new again. Make beautiful, whats been written on our hearts. and you are. And contribute, to tribute whats forever. + an old, new topic from a clear Blue sky. ( i like old look ) HD is nice. What blind faith is unworthy of that.. I am awakened again. Right on!
40+ years ago someone predicted that our kids and grandkids would be walking around one day with long hair and afros rocking out just like this most awesome supergroup was. Well... in my college days of the 90s we had grunge which was cool enough... Temple of the Dog was one of our supergroups. Didn't compare to Blind Faith tho. Now in 2010's who knows? I did see some kids with fro's and lambchops the other day but I didn't hear what they were listening to.
im deff a grunge child, but i've been playing drums for 22 years (started when i was 8) n this is one of the the first things my hippy stepdad showed me than changed my life... mitch, ginger, bonham, and moon dont get the credit they deserve for starting the evolution of the modern drummer
I'm 59 and I'll tell you what a joy it was for us living that period in our psychodelia.I was really blessed to see blinfaith live.the sad thing is i was so wasted ,i don't remember much,except i do remember sea of joy.i'm a percussionist and couldn't get over Ginger's playing.the kids of today are really missing alot.
There is a dialogue on this page about the 60s. Good place for it since this cut is so quintessentially a 60s piece. All I can say about it is that I was born in 1956 and feel that all of the promise established by the generation before me had degenerated into a sea of drugs by my time, and that those who championed freedom and joy ended up selling out and becoming the parents they despised. Luckily we have the destruction of sexism and the end of the Vietnam War, to thank them for.
There are a thousand million ways to waste and screw up your life in every single generation in every country in the world. That is not the point. The point is the music. People survive life or they do not, and everything in between. The point of this is the music and our ability to hear it and appreciate its power. The music adds value to life.
Young people, stop wishing you were alive in the 60's and do something now with your music. Wishing you were someplace else gets you no place. Acting on something now is what it is all about.
@drummer78 YOU SAID IT CAT! Children stop with the pitiful rymes of hate,violence,blatent abuse of our women.Do not join in the coruption.use your instruments in accordence to PEACE,LOVE,ACCEPTANCE. TIME IS ON YOUR SIDE.Stand against the MAN dont join him he's nowhere.
@drummer78 what is wrong with that? 60s music is better than most music made today. it's a sign of good taste to want to be from the era in which the good music came from. I wasn't born yet in 1969 and i rellay enjoy this band and this video.
@drummer78 americans are brainwashed with political correctness, they have lost their individuality and creativity, pretty soon music will be outlawed and the only singing you will hear is the cal to evening prayre from the local mosque. God hates america
I'm 16 years old, and I can only imagine what it would be like to be alive for Woodstock '69. Artists nowadays will never even be near living up to these lyrical geniuses.

i am 12 and music is shite now. justin beiber sucks
i am 62 now, i remember being stoned out of my mind back in the 60s... but now that i'm the one in power making the laws, you see i haven't repealed anything.. my whole generation is made up of hypocrites
Something definitely went wrong in the music business in the 1970's. It was a karma thing. Many artists got reckless and destructive. The drug lords were putting a lot of money into the system, literally buying the road to success for some of the musicians. There were a lot of drug songs. Porno industry funded GRC Records, which had a quick demise. Too many lyrics suggested destructive paths and encouraging a rip-off attitude. Strange reversal. Changes in technology caused fans to rip them off.
I think it's more of a corporate machine, and there is literally less freedom for the artists. In punk and independent hip hop, they broke out of the constraints some. But the subject matter back in the '60s and '70s seems more tied up with true life, and the music was more experimental. I don't want to generalize here. But I agree with what Chris Lee Bear and Smackeral Joe said.
Why does everyone insist on making comparisons between musicians like it's a competition? These are ARTISTS...In any art form, once a certain level of craft is reached, then it is an exercise in futility making these kinds of comparisons. There are so many intangibles, including taste, opportunity, exposure. There can be the obvious synergy - whether it be Lennon/McCartney - Becker/Fagen - Page/Plant - Simon/Garfunkel on and on where the sum of the parts is greater than the individual...

This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The drugs seemed really crappy in the late sixties. It made people dance around stupidly, singers sing out of key inane lyrics, guitar players doodle endless solos and then they all just died. The late eighties were much better years drugwise.
@mantra3000 You wrote about the late eighties? I think the second summer of love was still in the 60s, 69, woodstock. There is no other summer of love, isnt it..
Neil Peart is, i think, the most technically advanced drummer, Ginger has one of the most profound and individual styles i have ever heard and keith has amazing feeling and power, i can't choose a favourite tbh.
@hellojacobhitch4545 hi there and I am sure the drummer now of RUSH, Neil Peart is quite thrilled to know his past isn't haunting but honoring a gifted drummer ! I forgot he was at Woodstock way bajk then . . .
I learned not to compare masters either drummers or guitarist or whatever in music. Saw Eric & Steve in Columbus last year...great show...however Bonzo and Moonie were it their own place...Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce fed off Clapton and would have not become what they are w/o his teaching...Clapton still is a great teacher.
the bass player is Rick Grech from the group family, and Bonham was a very good drummer, but Ginger Baker was arguably the best of all time, he is playing a double bass drum, bonham did not do that, he was not as talented as Ginger Baker....... it was a super group...... Clapton was such a God back then, well still is but this is when he set the world on fire........ and Winwood on the B3 Hammond! one of the most underrated musicians of all time
John Bohnam had a double bass drum,but when JPJ said him "You're faster than all the other drummers just with one pedal,you don't need a double bass!".It's not a question of talent,I like also Ginger Baker but John Bohnam is the best.
@jaash5 who ever underated Stevie Winwood? Ihave never heard anything but praise on how great a musician he is. I remember seeing him on the TV show "Hulaballou"sp. I think it was 1968. the announcer said "he was one of the most talented 17 year olds he had ever been around a prodigy" "Gimme Some Lovin" was a very popular song he was talented musician and songwriter well thought of by his peers from the 60's to the present day.
@jaash5 bonham actually did use a double bass for a while but he was such a lead foot drummer the other members of zeppelin hid it from him because he was being too loud, id personally put bonham ahead of ginger but thats just my opion
@jaash5 I'll not argue about Baker being the best drummer. Not sure myself but certainly Bonham and Baker would be right at the top. What I will argue with you is the double kick drum. Bonham played double kick drum on the band's tour with Vanilla Fudge. He never recorded anything with a double kick drum partly because the rest of the band couldn't stand the noise. Everybody knows what a big hitter Bonham was. All said and done Blind Faith were a super group of super groups.
When people talk about the "super-groups" - those made up of the 'stars' of former groups ... well, Blind Faith was the prototype. And as impressive as the music was - look at the crowd. What a pleasure it would have been to be part of that crowd.
it would be so nice if a concert like that could even happen today, no agro, no conflict, all nice, yet everyone was prob wacked off their scones, but no one wanted to fight or be bad, the music has a lot to do with it??????
Actually, there are bands doing great music these days, even to the same caliber as this. You just dont HEAR these bands on the radio or see them on TV very often. King's X, Incubus, BluesTraveler, Andy Timmons, Government Mule. The music is out there, the problem is that its.....OUT THERE.
What really kills me is that all this phenomenal music of the 60s and early 70s was played with minimal equipment by today;s standards. Look at the stage. A few amps. No monitors. No 10 story column speakers. Yet the magic was in the music. Think about it. There are 4 video out there where Led Zeppelin is playing to a group of high school students sitting on the floor. It's in B&W. They too only had a few amps, but the sound they produced was incredible.
i was born 2 years after this. thank god i had a mother who was into all the best music,and turned me on to alot of it.i feel very blessed to know great stuff when i hear it.thank you mom.
that`s so right,the sound he gets from that tele is perfect and totally fits his style.The blind faith project was anyway one of the best things clapton did in his whole career.
(Just bored and looking through old 'replies'.) Think the tele was particularly good live for Eric - coz he actually had to work at the tone. Anyway, was going to say, have you heard Richard Thompson's version of Hey Joe? It's on a bootleg somewhere. Similarly appreciable tone on that one too.
OMG... I haven't heard this song in SO long!! What memories it brings back! I was 17 at the time. All the great songs during this era... not like the crap we have today.
its time to stop the trash talking about my generation i dont like some of the shit either but alot of it is good too so stop hatin on it cause you are al to old and tired to care or to try to relate to the new music today.. i love this shit but listening to all of you bitch about the music of today makes me sick there IS good shit out there you just have to find IT
There is some good stuff now but most rock now isn't that good. It's all screamo and people that just wanna make money. Very distasteful and has no feeling...
@ChrisLeeBear It's because it is no longer the artists thoughts and ideas. Now what is popular is what record companies write for artists to half assedly record, whip on auto tune and there you have it. Some advertisement with a catchy tune that mindless people listen to because they're told it is cool.
@SmackeralJoe spare the "mainstream/modern music is shit" cliches, we're here for the music. And we all (hopefully) already know that auto tune or whatever is stupid. Maybe your time would be better spent making a positive comment about something you actually do like
@snubbs741 Maybe I was merely expressing one opinion of many musical opinions both positive and negative. Why would you get all pissy about a months old comment that may have mentioned my personal dislike for one specific part of music? Maybe you should spend your time making your own life better instead of pretending to be some youtube therapist.
@SmackeralJoe dude come on there are some good artists today its just the top 20 shit thats bad but i mean that existed back then too, it was called top of the pops
@SmackeralJoe thats a little pretentious isnt it. Thinking that anybody who listens to popular modern music is mindless. Where's your mind? stuck back in the sixties? Theres many great modern bands as well, but its easy to get lost in all the crap top 40 stuff throughout all of time. not just now.
I was born in '71 so I missed seeing all the greats (Blind Faith, Cream, Hendrix, Jefferson Airplane, Grateful Dead. Thankts to youtube, cds, dvds, we still have the music.
1969, the summer of love... ahhhhh....I was a 16 year old flower child... it was all so beautiful back then. I'm a lot older but, I'm still a flower child. Love this song. Takes me way back...

Your'e all so right. I wish someone today would make something half a good as this era of music.

Actually, there are bands doing great music these days, even to the same caliber as this. You just dont HEAR these bands on the radio or see them on TV very often. King's X, Incubus, BluesTraveler, Andy Timmons, Government Mule. The music is out there, the problem is that its.....OUT THERE.

What really kills me is that all this phenomenal music of the 60s and early 70s was played with minimal equipment by today;s standards. Look at the stage. A few amps. No monitors. No 10 story column speakers. Yet the magic was in the music. Think about it. There are 4 video out there where Led Zeppelin is playing to a group of high school students sitting on the floor. It's in B&W. They too only had a few amps, but the sound they produced was incredible.

I would make two points:
A) What sounds good on a live recording did not necessarily sound that clear to everyone in attendance
B) Look up the "Wall of Sound", the Grateful Dead's sound system in 1974. It was called the "Wall of Sound" for good reason!

Ugy,music today doesn't have ANY feeling. At least what you hear on
the radio, that the industry wants us
to enjoy. Was born in '71 so I never
saw cream, Traffic, JA, Janis, Jimi, etc.
I often wonder what Cream & Trafic had done seperately but, we wouldn't have gotten this.

That guitar organ passage in the middle (not really a solo) is so beautiful. Go back to the tele Eric!
trufflesmell 2 years ago
that`s so right,the sound he gets from that tele is perfect and totally fits his style.The blind faith project was anyway one of the best things clapton did in his whole career.
nassreiskulturen 2 years ago
(Just bored and looking through old 'replies'.) Think the tele was particularly good live for Eric - coz he actually had to work at the tone. Anyway, was going to say, have you heard Richard Thompson's version of Hey Joe? It's on a bootleg somewhere. Similarly appreciable tone on that one too.

Something still bothers me about substance -induced 'dancing' (note blonde woman). Beautiful song, just stumbled across this.

BlindLoveandPeace 2 years ago
@ChrisLeeBear It's because it is no longer the artists thoughts and ideas. Now what is popular is what record companies write for artists to half assedly record, whip on auto tune and there you have it. Some advertisement with a catchy tune that mindless people listen to because they're told it is cool.
SmackeralJoe 1 year ago 24
@SmackeralJoe spare the "mainstream/modern music is shit" cliches, we're here for the music. And we all (hopefully) already know that auto tune or whatever is stupid. Maybe your time would be better spent making a positive comment about something you actually do like
snubbs741 10 months ago
@snubbs741 Maybe I was merely expressing one opinion of many musical opinions both positive and negative. Why would you get all pissy about a months old comment that may have mentioned my personal dislike for one specific part of music? Maybe you should spend your time making your own life better instead of pretending to be some youtube therapist.

@SmackeralJoe thats a little pretentious isnt it. Thinking that anybody who listens to popular modern music is mindless. Where's your mind? stuck back in the sixties? Theres many great modern bands as well, but its easy to get lost in all the crap top 40 stuff throughout all of time. not just now.
