I understood it that George played the rhythm guitar part and that Clapton didn't come in until the Leslie guitar in the middle (and of course, the guitar solo). Perhaps I got it wrong! Anyway, I love the tune! Funny, I've lived all these years believing just the opposite, that George played that solo. |

One of the most vibrant rock trios ever. This is a priceless rock masterpiece. Clapton in a group was magic...not to say his later work
was not though.

Favorite Cream song, the others are too heavy for me... love my man Eric in all of his other incarnations though.

Actually, they're not. There's no chord or note sequence in this song with those notes/chords.
The name of this song came from Clapton's nearly illegible scribble on the top of the page that said "bridge?" , meaning he needed to write a bridge - aka "the middle 8" - which Harrison then took to be "Badge", the name of the song. He kept calling it "Badge", and it stuck. Kind of an inside joke.
Interesting story! This song is way too short....... |

Saw Clapton on Tour with Muddy Waters in 1980 and he opened with this. The crowd went nuts. Perhaps my favorite Cream song.

Glorious times and memories. This sounds beats my 8-track tape, though. Excellent tune and Clapton rules then & now, dammit!

A great song of a generation that continues to live on and on. And it really makes it a great song. |

Aha! I had always bought the "chord explanation" since I am completely musically illiterate. This explanation sounds plausible. How do you know this? |
