I own Wheels of Fire in vinyl.  I must have repressed this cut.  The drumming is superb, but the tune is S-B.  Clapton lights up, but then the silly voice comes back.  Is that Jack Bruce?

Not really, but it helps to have heard it a half-million times while pretty stoned.  This is the old fart's anthem:  Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days.
 
Yeah really stoned. Like anyone could play like Clapton in "those days"!

Perhaps, but I started getting into Cream when "Sunshine of Your Love" came out.  I was in high school and I loved most of their stuff.
I was "soaking up" music like a sponge.  I guess you had to be there at the time.

My favorite track on this album is "Traintime."  If someone has that digitally, please upload it.  Thanks.

For some reason I think this is my older brother's favorite song!  He even flew to England to see them.  I don't get it.

No, it was about my profile.  If you want to have a critical discussion we can do that.  Otherwise, it is highly questionable just who the "troll" actually is here.
