Cream Is One Of The Most Incredible Bands That I Ever Heard! Only In 3 Albums They Did Way More Great Work Than Any Band With More Than 10 Albums! It's Incredible, Every Artist From Cream Playing On More Than 4 Instruments & They Doing It AMAZING! Such A Great Talent! Such Big Emotion & Passion, This Is REAL MUSIC!

Cream, The Doors, The Beatles, Jeff Beck & The Rolling Stones RULES!

THE GREAT 60's 4 LIFE!

My Wheels of Fire LP got ripped off years

ago! I'm so glad to here this great Jack Bruce

Harmonica Solo again. After I first heard this recording in 1968, I bought my first harmonica and tried to learn how to play Train Time! If it wasn't for Jack Bruce I may not have gotten into playing harmonicas.

Thanks for sharing!

Recorded at Fillmore West in San Francisco.

Outstanding drum work by Ginger Baker, keeping that "train" rolling down the tracks.

Jack Bruce's harp work is both driving and mournful. That's a tough combination to achieve but he does it with finesse, and passion.

This is by far the best version of this song.

Each member of Cream was a legend already when they formed. Their music was a force unto itslef and that's probably why they burned out so fast.

I heard a suppsoed quote from Ginger Baker sometime in the late 70s that I liked, even if it's not true: "The best thing about Cream is, we knew when to stop."

want to hear some great fuckin blues harp? just listen and enjoy, i play this song too, and it's damn hard to keep it going without running out of breath, Jack was awesome in his youth, and still plays the harp well even though he is now in his 60's. the years do take the toll on the amount of wind you got, believe me.

@ESPEEandERIE The closest my friends & I could get to this superhuman performance was a couple of "New Yorkers" ,a bucket of Col.Sanders listening in awe to the Wheels of Fire LP that came out that day.....PS I hate you :-)

[ESPEEandERIE]

One of my all time favorite bands. I was at Winterland during this performance.

@BilliHeathMusic this track was onme of the reasons i got my first harp in 1969, and i have been playing ever since. Paul Butterfield was also a big influence, as well as howling wolf and Keith Relf of the old yardbirds

In 1968 in the Ballerina Ballirina Ballroom Nairn, I was 10ft away from Jack when he played this - fantastic!!

[joetaino1]

even though i am not a harmonica player and i am not expert in harmonica playing by all means and i am aware of all of the harmonica masters in the world but to my taste this is my favorite harmonica blues song and this song along with Rolling and Tumblin made me take the blues route on my music career when i was very young.thanks Jack,Eric and Ginger..

@cdsorvinyl The amazing drum solo starts off with a guitar solo that was nothing short of amazing.
