I agree. This sort of music was frowned upon by the institutions. We can thank Tony Palmer for convincing the BBC to video these last two concerts. Yes the editing is a bit heavy on the psychedelics, but all those sorts of things, effects etc were in their infancy and this would also have been a rush job to have it ready by Jan 1969. It was shot on colour video which was new and then transferred to 16mm film because that's the only way they could edit it and add the 'effects'.
If you were born in the 1960’s you would have been too young to appreciate this music. Better to be born in the mid 1950’s and be a teenager at the time Cream arrived and showed all the shitty pop bands of the time how to actually play their instruments.
I was 2 months old when this performance went down and I often think that I would sacrifice the time to have been able to be there (front row only though or directly behind Ginger to watch the greatest percussionist to live work his magic) but alas,wasn't in my cards.Thank God for the footage available to see and hear this moment in time.I got to see some of the great ones in the 80's though;Floyd,The Dead,Dylan,and the like.Cream is my fantasy show and can never be nothing but.I actually feel genuine sympathy for the complete trash and senseless noise that kids are force-fed nowadays.A real damn shame.My 18 year old son plays drums and was brought up on the classics and God be praised digs 'em.I gave him free will but the garbage doesn't appeal to him so thanks for large miracles!Long Live The Cream!
Sad sight at the dstation.. In the White Room and duch a sad sight seeing this fantastic and for me the best group ever and if they would have continued they would have gone on to be even more mindblowing as they were! 😭😭😭Forever in my hearts these 3 magnificent and unique talented musicians! I still lidten to Eric Clapton who I have rediscobered and seen his talent grow over the years! My hat goes off to all of them. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏😍😍😍💯👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👌👌I LOVE YOU GUYS! 🙏❤️🎶🎶🎶
White Room Lyrics [Intro] Vocalizing "In a white room with black curtains near the station Black roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves You said no strings could secure you at the station Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows I walked into such a sad time at the station As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves"
Cream set the stage for Jimi Hendrix and was the first group to mix Blues with Rock, with improvised and sometimes long jams and some Jazz improvisations. Clapton’s introduction of the wah 😭 😭 wah effect gave the 🎧 listener an audio experience of making the music 🎵 translate into the impact of a☝️psychedelic experience. Jimi was listening 👂 to Cream while still an unknown in New York.

Wow! What a blast from the past! 60-70 Rock! I still got a Vinyl LP n cover this Album in my Back Room an Audio Turntable. to a more modern Yamaha Stereo Amp .n speakers. I Best fire it all Up An Blast My Memories afresh? an Alive! Enjoy ! Thanks!
I'd be at college, either in the common room or in an adjacent pub and cream would be playing, I'd be 7 sheets to the wind and everything was just superb.
Why is there always someone like you that can find something they don’t like. I am just glad I can watch it. This is an old video We were excited when VHS tapes came out. Remember to see the glass as half full not always half empty. God bless you. I love just about all Christian music but as far as rock goes, sixties and seventies were the best in my opinion. I don’t know if you think I am right or not.
@@edgarsifuentes3248 era un rumor que corría por esos tiempos, conoces al cantante de blues Robert Johson?? se decía que vendió su alma al diablo a cambio de sus habilidades de guitarra, cada vez que tocaba daba la espalda al público ya que parecía tener más de 10 dedos en sus dos manos, acerca del rumor que mencioné al inicio es que Eric escondía sus manos de la cámara para que los demás no vieran sus técnicas, por eso es super difícil encontrar un buen enfoque 😩😩 pero ya por la actualidad y en los 80s 90s se le ve bien hshshshs
@@boxianparkk si, si lo conozco. Si solo rumor. Oh jaja se dice lo mimos de Van Halen que se escondía para que George Lynch de Dokken no lo viera tocar😆. Guitarristas🎸. Todos talentosos. Pero si te hiba a mencionar lo del 2005 en el Robert Hall pero pues es de reciente. Nada como aquellos tiempos!
I think this was the UK’s answer to 'The Jimi Hendrix Experience'. Great band! All legends in their own right. Great times! Real musicians. Real instruments. Not processed, computer generated shite that the kids have to endure because they know no better. Shame for them, but great for us old Gits… Gits! That’s a word that you don’t hear much any more. 🤣😂🤣
I really believe what you say man..... Cream is the brst band that ever lived. Im 18 and cant stop listening to 60s and 50s music, its great knowing someone else in the world listens to this and not all that gibberish out there
había visto una entrevista de Eric en donde decía que por estos tiempos ellos estaban obteniendo mucha atención, no le gustaba que los camarógrafos le grabaran ya que ellos estaban en un viaje de uff tú ya sabes lol y decía que para ser honesto en esos tiempos sus músicas le parecían poca cosa, al ver este performance confirmo cada vez que ellos realmente estaban super drogados, y no sólo eso, sino que el camarógrafo tambn lo estaba JAJAJAJAJS qué demonios, típico de momentos icónicos cómo estos, deben tener el peor tipo de grabación existente en la tierra
the direction and shots are really bad but they were so fashionable at the time, large shots of faces and rapid changes of view not to mention the overlapping of images
Seems *this* music goes with the parody (of this song) titled “the Black Room.” It sounds like it’s thirty fathoms down in the sewage plant, jangly, distorted, too fast, whucka-whucka-whucka-nightmare.
I love how people are complaining about the videography. Other then not filming Clapton, you’re lucky you even get to see this. It was the 60s....
It’s not like it’s 1895, there’s plenty of great footage of Cream from the 60’s, this videographer made sure this wasn’t one of them
BS . Film had been around for 60’years when this was made - no excuse for poor edit .
@@Rabmcm32 Exactly!

@@Rabmcm32 It was actually shot on video which was very new in 1968... then transferred to film for editing and cinema release.
what a song!!! I listen to Cream in 2023 and it is Amazing, I will love that song x ever.
Well said !
Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker & Eric Clapton...this is CREAM.
Cream of the crop 😊
Such complexity from a trio.
One of my favourite live versions. How I wish I was born in the 60s! Brilliant band.

This song has it all,and which is what drew me to loving Cream. This is raw but Epic.These guys are masters. The best power Trio ever.
I was in the 8th grade in 1968 I rocked out 🤘I only listen to the best!!!
Rocked it out in 68 Junior in HS what a band.

At the party,
she was kindness,
in the hard crowd.
Consolation,
for the old wounds
now forgotten.

White Room Lyrics
[Intro] Vocalizing
"In a white room with black curtains near the station
Black roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes
Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment
I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves
You said no strings could secure you at the station
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows
I walked into such a sad time at the station
As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning
I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves"
I give you $1 for some Ingrish lessons
Yeah if they would’ve stayed together zeppelin would’ve been in trouble
Jack Bruce was the brains behind Cream. Great singer/ songwriet, and bassist!
A *power trio* is a "power trio" for a reason: it doesn't sustain itself without all three, you imbeciIe.
and you would know ?
I think this is one of the best videos of them performing this live
Love you Eric.

This song brings back memories 💕
Cameraman suddenly took a hit of acid and completely missed Clapton’s solo, guess he thought Bruce needed more screen time.
:))))
I didn’t mind it lol
jack bruce deserves more attention the genius he was playing a fretless bass
@@LeadFrog agreed, but not during an epic Clapton solo

Thank you for uploading!
You said no strings …. Fantastic performance 💞💞💞
I ❤ this guys!!!!!!
Wonderful. Not just great but epoch defining
Great band

Pity their performance was marred by poor production techniques

The videography was terrible, period.
@@Hoyacoder probably not
I like the chorus is belted out not in a falsetto like the album
Remain me what relative theory past present and future is the same reflecting in a classic music rock etc
You've lost me there😅
2:13 Who kicked in the OVERDRIVE ???
será que algún día encontraré un buen enfoque a Eric en su solo del minuto 4:00 ??? a este punto me estoy dando por vencida
No creo. Ya desde entonces hacían eso los camarógrafos... con Hendrix igual paso en unos conciertos.
@@edgarsifuentes3248 ya me rendí en mi búsqueda ;(( además Eric daba la espalda al público en sus solos imitando a su ídolo Robert ;(((
@@boxianparkk oh yo se que el empezó a hacer los solos más largos pero eso no sabía. Bueno dato🎸. Pero si difícil que encuentres este solo.

Cream came before Jimi's band. *Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell, 2/3 of The Experience, are English.*
Eu não eu conheço estes tipos desde 1978
Woodstock clearly missed out !what a band
They had disbanded in November 26, 1968.
@@smoke0586 exactly i bet they'd have played there otherwise
Disbanded early 69.
nice to hear, but this is a video disaster. Camera operators in that era should face court marshall.
Or even his brother Court Martial
RIP ginger baker
The videography of "the Farewell Concert" was absolutely atrocious.

I believe slot if footage lost in fire?
The quality of the other show is much better. Obviously some more mixing on that one. Raw and good.
It's almost like this video is a rarity, huh... 🤔🙄🤌
They played the song twice?
the direction and shots are really bad but they were so fashionable at the time, large shots of faces and rapid changes of view not to mention the overlapping of images
what is the camera man high on
Why does the audio cut to a completely different performance half way through? Was the original audio just lost?
It's same performance just a different sources
@@oxfan9384 It doesn't seem to sync properly with the video, which makes me think it is a different performance.
@@android927 The audio is the same performance throughout, it just cuts to a more inferior source halfway through
@@android927He’s absolutely right, it is the same performance… I just wish they would have stayed with the first feed…
Po co publikować film ze złym dźwiękiem?
The sound is from the correct performance. Thank you

I'm sorry but when Clapton is giving an epic solo I don't need to see the back of Jack Bruce's head
The cameraman was obviously tripping. Hate all the stupid wiggling.

Never mind Eric , we’re listening to Jacks voice , and style of Bakers drumming.
