    I was at the early evening Cream concert at the Royal Albert Hall in Nov 68. 4th row from the front - 7th seat in - right opposite Clapton. D.J. John Peel was the compere & we were treated to two supporting bands. Rory Gallagher (Taste) & Yes were on before cream. I have to say that the film release of this 'Farewell' concert is a real disaster & doesn't capture the sheer power & energy of Cream. They were an incredible band live.

      @@mybluesguitar Yes indeed ! One of the greatest memories I have. I remember passing through the crowd waiting to see the 2nd concert outside. Some guy asked me 'was it good' ? & I couldn't answer him through sheer adrenaline. Everyone knew, that the doors to heavy blues/ rock had been kicked open & Marshall stacks were now being loaded into vans all over the country. lol !

    Is the book good or does it read like "And then Clapton played a double stop phrase, and then Jack Bruce played a contrapuntal phrase while Ginger complimented them with an African rhythm on the tom toms." ?

    MY BLUES GUITAR< Research because I heard Clapton used the Rangermaster treble booster and marshall JTM or bluesbreaker on the CREAM albums to get that woman tone when rolling back the SG tone pot control. You haven't made a video lesson about Cream Woman Tone licks or how to get that Woman tone.
