One of my MOST FAVOURITE songs - and records.  Whenever I feel down, listening to the album cheers me up. |

LIstening to this after Stevie Wonder gives me whole new perspective on the bass line.....

I caught Buddy Guy in concert a few years back and he loves to do this as part of his "history of rock and blues" set. It smokes!

When I first started brewing beer, this was the title my roommate and I came up with for our label.  |

The song merits a rating of "7" or "8", but the album cover merits a "10."

I always liked Tales of Brave Ulysses more. Also wondered at what they meant by the song SWLABR. To this day, I have no idea what that title means. I soon bought Fresh Cream and Wheels of Fire came out. Then the short-lived but terrific Blind Faith.
SWLABR means "She was like a bearded rainbow". I won't pretend to know what that means, but I have seen stranger things when I was "partaking of the sacrament". My favorite Cream song is Eric's live version of "Crossroads". It consistantly tops polls as the best live guitar solo ever. That's saying a Hell of a lot, considering all the other "guitar gods" who have come and gone in the intervening 40+ years. Clapton is God!  |

A 9 for me only because I prefer the "Lawdy Mama" version.

Style points if RP plays the alternate take, "Lawdy Mama."

Not sure why I had this at 9. Must have been in a foul mood. Wait, I'm in a foul mood now, so that's not the answer.
