The days leading up to the much anticipated reunion between Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker and Eric Clapton, were exciting. In the late 1960's, Cream developed a sophisticated style of music, blending jazz and blues into a highly progressive rock format, defined by blistering guitar solos, previously unheard drum patterns and a bass section that rivaled the lead guitar. The reunion of these superstar musicians, bridged the gap created nearly 37 years earlier, when the band left the music scene. Their performance at the Royal Albert Hall (London) was purely fantastic. A throwback to the days of extended solos and improvisational work, no longer available in rock music. The musicians sounded fresh and tight. Although the songs were not as long as the original releases back in the 1960's, they provided a look into a period of imaginary sounds and unbridled creativity rarely seen over the years. This collection of music from the reunion tour of 2005, is a must for any serious follower of 1960's era progressive rock. A sound seldom heard in today's world.Read full review

Loved it. I was going to the Fillmore and Winterland back in the day of great bands, great music and Bill Graham only charging a few bucks to see three awesome bands. I always tell my kids about the "good old days" when you could afford to go to concerts. But the great ones are still the best. Cream was and continues to be a legend along with Eric Clapton and Santana and the ones that have stood the test of time plus Ginger Baker's solo. Come on that's classic. Had to show my sons what they missed. Fantastic cd. And for a great price. I know where i will be buying more from this buyer. Thanks for the great memories. Mo Chuisle

This is a fantastic recording of a historic event.Besides hearing these great songs again and some not performed live by Cream before (Badge,Outside Woman Blues)is the fact that the playing is superb.Eric Clapton's solos are so inspired! He hasn't run off licks like this in years proving he still has it when he wants to let loose.A great collection for all Cream fans and any guitar lover.
