And then Cream puts out this electric psychedelic version of a blues classic and a live take on "Crossroads" that is a screaming electric guitar freak-out.
What the hell happened to the blues purism, Eric?
Who cares? GREAT TUNE! Thanx RP!

When I come back to life all I want to be is Eric. Is that too much to ask?
I played that album so much when I was in HS that the needle (remember needles?) started playing the other side of the album. One of their best cuts - and they had a LOT of them.

it wasn't until years after i first heard this song that i even knew that cream covered old blues songs. radio here in nyc in the late 60's (even free form radio) barely played old blues songs. but then little by little i heard the original stuff and you're right it's great. how about rp, maybe some albert king would be real sweet.
more Ginger Baker!:D boy can i relate :roll:

Yes, they were all egotistical asses, but damn they made some fine music!
It is nice to be reminded of a musical pinnacle that stood as part of the soundtrack of a particularly fruitful time of personal growth, and now is just a lost beacon in the fog of forgotten youth.
i hang out a few klicks north of tequillaville.
eternally sweet.
Man I love this song. I haven\'t heard it in decades! 
Listen to that drumming. tight, funky, yet bluesy
