3 of 22
In May of 2005 Cream returned to London's Royal Albert Hall-to the same stage where they had completed what was thought to be their final performance in 1968. It was one of the most eagerly anticipated, hard-to-get tickets in rock history. With the exception of a brief reunion set at their 1993 induction into the Rock and roll Hall of Fame, Cream had not played together in nearly four decades. This DVD documents Cream's momentous London shows. Performances from each of the four nights are featured and much more. Also included are alternate performances and interviews with Ginger Baker, Jack Bruce, and Eric Clapton. Cream formed in 1966 and disbanded in 1968. The band were a prolific and thrilling live act and toured incessantly in their short but remarkable history.
Jack Bruce was a damn fine bassist! All 3 of them were exceptionally talented, RIP Jack!
YES YESSSSSSSSSSSSS BRAVISIMO.....
...and RIP Ginger.
Cream always had the simple 'clean' sound that only three highly talented musicians could produce. There was no need for a massive backing orchestra. Incredible performers. It's a pity they fought so much they broke up as a band so quickly, but this concert demonstrates both how great they were together, and just how much we missed.
It was just ginger and jack fighting. Clapton tried to keep things calm
yeh they are still humans 👍👍,mark
humans gonna be human no matter how well they understand the pentatonic scale lol
_"Cream always had the simple 'clean' sound that only three highly talented musicians could produce."_
Yeah, if your idea of "clean" is very loud and distorted... :)
@@Bigfoot-px9gjhhahahaha electric distorted free form jazz ocassionaly.
this is great play here but in 60s.. wow🎉
I love how Clapton plays different when he's with Jack and ginger RIP. They were so great together they pushed and admired each others playing. Thats why they are the best
He really does.
Clearly Jack and Ginger bring out the very best in him as is evident here.
Clapton was working with two musicians who were proficient in Jazz. It explains a lot. Rock musicians cannot learn too much Jazz. It’s all in the swing and other Jazz sensibilities.
Yeah wasn't a huge fan of Clapton after cream wasn't bad after but it wasn't as good playing cream never found anything else aft going solo that interested me he was never able to find anyone to play with that was as good as jack and ginger they just had great musical chemistry that's what made them so good there wasn't alot of thought involved just get up and play they just fed of each other Ginger and Eric kinda jerks for no reason especially ginger
The best 3 some ever sry jimi u r 3nd
The best “supergroup”
In my humble opinion. Virtuosos all three
This version of this song should just be titled "Eric Was Mad At His Guitar". The man was on fire in this one
jack is having a genuinely good time here
he is killing it
I love his facial expressions in this video. I'm not a holy man, but God bless Jack Bruce. Rest In Peace.
2:53 to 3:00...Ginger does a badass roll and Jack grins from ear to ear....these guys are the Titans of Blues rock....all hail The Cream ...
@Naki Ryan ...the audience went nuts after that blistering solo too...love it!
"there's no stoppin' this guy!"
Love that strat's tone so much more than Clapton's typical strat tone for the last decade or so. That's what a strat needs to sound like
agreed. the last time his guitar/amp sounded like this was on "How Long" with Paul Carrack in Basel 2013. Wish he would return to this sound or soldano/marshalls haha
that quacky tone is a really unique but fitting sound for this song. people seem to overuse the neck pickup on a Strat for blues songs when all the other pickup positions have something to offer as well
@@Gabe-1997 He plays the middle pickup. That's not where the quack comes from. There's a Crybaby on the floor, set all the way back, that's where that particular tone comes from. However he sounds like Clapton, no matter which guitar, amp or pedals. You can always tell by the first note, if it's Clapton.
My favorite version of this song! They just owned it. To me Cream was always 3 musicians that could sound like 100!!!!!!!!!!
Totally bad ass that those guys got together again
Dan Maltby l
best I have heard them.............
I wish I was alive to see Cream perform. This was their last performance, it was in 2005. I was born in 2008. RIP Jack and Ginger
And they did it right which is even more bad ass
One of my favorite songs by Cream.
These guys brought out the musical best in each other… Eric plays on a wholly different level here!
that was the secret of Cream as each thought he was the Best !
Clapton’s solos are out of this world. But take a look at how Jack Bruce really enjoys his plucking the bass. Not not to mention Ginger Baker’s smooth drums. My god, this was such an extraordinary group of people.
Li ho visti da vivo...
This!!!!
Rest In Peace Ginger Baker!
What's funny is that Ginger looks better here than he did about 40 plus years ago!
Yes but unfortunately Ginger has COPD from decades of smoking. Poor guy. Great drummer. People forget that ONLY Ginger took on the greatest jazz drummers of the day in drum battles and even won (at least in the view of possibly biased young audiences.) He used to be considered #1 but over time people have forgotten.
It's a wonder that dude is alive given how much he smokes.
Smoke won't do anything to ginger after all the acid he took
also is much- much better than Charlie watts........hands down......
Ginger has a lot of respect for Charlie, who was the one who got him the gig with Alexis Corner.
The best rythym sections know not only WHEN TO PLAY, but also when NOT TO PLAY. I just love Jack's "missing notes" and how they sync with Ginger's "missing hits". Great syncopation of bass and drums was always the hallmark of great 60s rock bands like Cream.
I think it’s awesome that it’s just the three of them for the reunion. You see a lot of classic rock bands now have added several musicians to the stage.
They were the Cream. Didn't need backing musicians to kiil it.
Great point. Keep it simple and keep it strong. Like this!
Just like old times
Hadn't had this is my head since forever ago. Now, it going to be there for like forever. They put it down into a groove so deep; so deep I can't climb out. Eric soars! Jack knows it and loves it. Look at him smile.
They nail it...again! Wonderful bass and drum thing going on...Clapton's riffs ride on them...the whole thing flows like the river. Lovely syncopations in the solo...off the down beat. Masterful.
They sound great to me. Very tight and locked in. Jack felt it. Look how happy he was.
+Frank Fitzgerald tight groove yo, good and simple. then the more complicated later songs get more nuanced, like deserted cities of the heart and we're going wrong. such a great trio
Thank God they did while they could all still sing and play at such a high level. Clapton is just in top form for this show.
Clapton is so articulate with his phrasing. So much emotion. What a band!
Lead guitar, bass guitar and drummer equals music history.....Cream seemed like a dream.....and they were.....
Every time I watch this I'm more convinced than ever before, that Eric Clapton is the greatest blues guitarist of his generation. The phrasing and tone are unmatched. Claptons vocals never get the respect they deserve, as he developed into a terrific vocalist.
rob morrison best til SRV came along.
Jim jimi jimi jimi
Why do so many people put so much effort into determining whom is the best musician among the top tiers? I worked and resided near the Troubadour, Whiskey A Go Go, Ash Grove (now gone), McCabe’s Guitar Shop, Holly Bowl, etc., and watched many performances by many great musicians. It was common for many other fine musicians to be there enjoying the performances. It was common for the billed performers to occasionally invite others to come on stage and jam with them and add their style.
@@larrylinn8589 exactly Larry,I get so tired of the so&so is better than so&so. It's not a dam competition. I always tell them that the best player is the one you like best.
@@dalton7145 "of HIS generation". SRV became famous in the 80s, and only play Texas blues.
“If you lose your woman please don’t fool with mine” is the wise words of Eric Clapton prior to stealing George Harrison’s wife. Smh
He never stole her from George , he started dating her when they got divorced
George Harrison was asked if he was upset over Clapton marrying his wife responded" Nah,I pulled a chick on him once!"
@@jamesbowen8960 Yep he actually did! The mother of Clapton's son, Connor Clapton (who sadly passed away), actually was taken away by Harrison! Looks like they almost got even hahah
He didn't steal anything...as Bobby whitlock says....George told Eric "you can have her"....their friendship never waned
He didn't write the song. It's an old blues standard.
Increíble, Clapton is god, de verdad.
PARA SIEMPRE..!!
Cream - the supergroup's supergroup. Thanks Eric, Ginger and Jack (RIP).
("This IS our prime, whatchoo mean?")
Every footage of these three, whenever shot, is transcendent:
Sometimes they were mates, more often they were not, but when they were onstage, making Music together, they were participating in something that was greater than the sum of its parts, and they knew it.
They may not have liked each other (that feeling ebbed and flowed, as I understand it), but musically, they ALWAYS trusted each other, and it shows here.
I'm so glad, no pun intended, that they reunited before some of them died. They sounded better than their early days in my opinion
Jack looks off stage to someone and is like “Good God, Eric is on fire”
R.I.P. - Jack and Ginger
That was Ginger he was looking at
This Eric guy has a future in music!
Just think, that little bit of exposure he did on Top Gear, testing the AUX Jack of a Kia paid off.

@@fuzzface8252 🤣👍
It's amazing what happens when you wake up! 😉
Yeah I think you’re right. He seems to be pretty good. Heck they all have a special sound that together is top notch. We are so lucky they were able to do this even if it was a forty year wait. It was worth it.
If only someone like T Swift could promote him and put him on the map
All you people wanna stay in the sixties with their equipment, their voices, their playing. First time I saw them was in Philly in 1968. I’m so lucky to be alive, clean and sober and healthy enough to even witness this. The 3 of the best in the world made all their own choices for this series of shows . The audience seems pretty happy as I. They popped the cork on an old bottle of very fine wine. Peace Rocky
They popped the cork on some sweet wine
Rotating stage? My aunt says she saw them in the Spectrum on a rotating stage....soooo jealous
@@stephenjones1457 Ha,ha.
I just loved this broadcast on PBS back in 2005. it brought back a lot of good memories of The Super Group Cream. RIP Jack & Ginger!
This is the best live music you will ever hear-argue about anything you want. These are the 3 best, enjoy
Jack Bruce is having a great time - thoroughly enjoying EC’s playing, and beaming with pride ❤️
Love cream forever. Best trio.
💖💖💖💖
Amazing performance! Never grow tired of this
Good music 🎶 all the best for the new year coming
No one can touch Clapton on his good day. Fact.
PUHLEESE...
I love love Clapton as much as anyone, but there are guitarists out there now that he couldn't keep up with.
@@cjmsr461 hes, slowhand, keep that word in mind, slow, hand.
More of an opinion than fact really 🤔
@@alanhowell3646 slow, hand
Outstanding.
Jack got a little caught off guard when Clapton took an extended solo near the end, but didn't lose time. Clapton's tone here is rad
2:57 that quick grin of approval Jack shoots at Ginger gets me twice as amped every time.
I love Jack’s smiles here 🙂
Pity Bruce had to sit down! They should've done this in 1993,
Jack is so cool. Fantastic bass playing🙏🙏🙏
If there is Cream drummer named Ginger Baker, there must be ginger baker named Cream Drummer haha
yes thats my name
This is by far the best RUclips comment I have ever read
What a groovy catchy tune real love the lyrics total awesome play it all day
Clapton, as ever, looking like somebody's uncle, and blowing the roof away.
Clapton was really on that night in the light blue shirt.
yep, the final night of the reunion where at least 10 of the songs they played made it to DVD. they were so on this night. wish i could have went
Clapton killed this solo holy fuck
Every guitar solo is another masterclass!
Creme de la Creme !! Thanks,theeshrimpking.
Jack and Ginger cannot be forgotten.
It doesn't get better than this. It just doesn't.
RIP Jack Bruce :(
Yo have to check out bruce on spoonful but isolated otherworldly
Jesus Christ Claptons vocals sound even as great
Eric didn’t do vocals with his previous bands, but Jack insisted he should because he is as good as any. Thank goodness, he is better than most.
The fellas clearly have it at this show. I can tell Clapton has studied plenty of 1969-70 Jimi Hendrix, his peak of fluidity, creativity, and intellectual maturity. Clapton was one of the biggest influences on Hendrix, and Jimi provided a wellspring of hooks, rhythms, tones, and phrases for Clapton to be inspired by. Mutual admiration society.
That guitar tone isn't close to his Gibson sound from the album unfortunately.
Yeah he learnt from Jack Bruce
@@michaelloomisiii3475 the woman tone.
Great God Almighty listen to @ 1min 50sec to 1:54. Thats one bad ass lick right there. Not in notes really- but in TONE.
Fantastic god play guitar,eric
The cream of blues rock and roll they were so early on the scene most don't even know how great this band was is always will be
What's not common knowledge is that in 2004 Jack had a liver transplant that did not go well.
The Cream reunion gigs were a "now or never" proposition.
Notice he sat on a stool most of the show. Even weak /sore/ and sick he still played liked a pro. Shame they couldn't do a farewell tour in the UK or America, but we'll always have Albert Hall.
Perfect!!! ;-))
just as good as the album
Found it. Bruce's bass is a Gibson EB1. A 1954 model on Ebay $10,000!
James Schuster looks like flat wound strings too
I’m pretty sure I saw a documentary where he said its a custom bass. But it was a looong time ago. You may very well be right
That one is priceless now
I had an Epiphone EB-1 I bought for $199 in 1998. A couple of years ago I saw a 1973 Gibson EB-) on kine for $200. It was part of an online estate sale. That's what I played in '73 so, naturally, I had to have it. Especially since I saw a '75 listed on Ebay fo $3500. But I digress. I gave the EB-1 knockoff to my son in law who said he wanted to learn bass. I look stuff up once in awhile just for kicks. Bad Move. I saw a '98 Epi EB-1 on Ebay for $795.
2:32 thats a bass smile after he sinks in deep with the background of the rythm Rip an Idol Jack Bruce
Would LOVE to meet these cats! 😎🎶
I seen Clapton in Greenville, SC shortly after this tour...best concert ever..he played 3 hours..with Jimmie Vaughn opening up for him
Man, if you only knew how much I envy you...
thank God they did these shows in 2005 , sadly there can be no more .What an exceptional band. Clapton is one of the guitar greats but here he is with his peers , Ginger and Jack are just as great and what a voice Jack had . RIP Jack you are sorely missed
Old geezers showing how its done ❤
Guitar god 🙏
‘’Thanks for waiting all these years’’!
how the fuck he plays that solo with eeys closed and all notes were perfect
That's some serious guitar playing right there !!!
An amazing version, LOVE that fill from Ginger at 2:53!
thunderbolts
At 1:40 Eric gives a musical nudge to Jimi H. Just pointing that out. Eric played and sang GREAT on this number probably the best of the 22.
Cream accomplished such feat at so short a time and influenced a lot of band
My wife : Ask me why you loving blues?
Me : listen this
2:30 Jack looks to someone offstage, “fucking ROSES!?”
Someone threw a bouquet at Eric’s feet, what a riot
Jack one of the Best Bass players ever!!!
And still badass. Future will remember them.
This is an amazing live performance. 🤙
Hey, just 3 guys playing songs they liked. Doing their scrapyard thing. Yes, Jack and Ginger didn't get along, but they sure knew how to be the force.
Memory eternal, Jack.
It’s not cream with a strat
Live, honey
Eric Patrick Clapton , once described this number as... " the good stuff "...
Schade das DIE nie einen Sänger hatten.
Very nice and hard to sing whilst playing that riff! Remember Clappers using his "woman tone" on this number? Also, although the Strat sounds cool, hands up those who prefer the sound he got in the old days on the SG or 335? He used to have an amazing vibrato too.
He got that tone using a Marshall and LP, 335 OR SG AND rolling back the tone almost to off!! Best tone ever!
What Dalton forgot to add of course for guitar players is that Eric got that woman sound on Disraeli Gears by backing off the tone to about zero but also using only the neck pick-up on that Gibson SG axe. It was the perfect guitar for that Sunshine of Your Love or psychedelic tone that was a trend setter back in the late 60's. I used to get it with the Gibson SG Special played through a Sears USA Silver-tone Twin Ten or Twelve amp. Little tube amp that permitted a lot of built in distortion at the ready.
I think the solos in this version are among the most impressive of his career, just fantastic!
Pure ear candy.
Captivating
Enchanting
Authentic
Genuine
Original
Gratitude Attitude!

(Daze gone by...
Double-crossed by thee double-standard?)
My lord they were impressive together
2:52 .. *Geeee-TAR*
I like to listen it on x1.25 speed ;)
Greatly enjoyed hearing them but in an acommodation to age each song has a slower tempo than in the '60s. Regardless, great that they were able to get together.
Richard Baker yup ginger can't use the snare rolls at this speed. he looks a little bored with it, but it's all the boys needed for this gig.
I was at this show! Love it!
Much respect and envy - lucky you!!!
I envy yu
lucky bastard. :-)
Lucky guy
There were several great three piece bands, but none Better, than cream.
its a shame i was born in 74' only cause id of LOVED to see these fine ass humans do their thing together.
Good bye Ginger ❤️🌷
At the 2:55 mark if you close your eyes it’s like 1968 again. Jack thinks so too…as he looks back at Ginger…with a smile of approval.
You know what? They actually pulled this one off.
