I had the pleasure of seeing Cream when I was about 15 years old in Rhode Island and I started taking my bass playing very seriously. The three of them threw cream pies at each other after the concert then they all walked by right in front of me. I was in heaven!
That's a reasonable question: I found another RUclipsr Comment (drummer) that describes Ginger's playing generally in more technical terms: "I don't know if non-musicians can hear it, but a drummer can hear how Ginger's feet kept solid, metronomic time while his hands were switching between various time signatures / using polyrhythms. The man was amazingly gifted and talented."
@@davidovics92 Cool - Maybe there are other drummers who could weigh in on this. I also find his drum tone unique - but don't know how much is 'him' versus the way the songs are engineered. Peace... :)
Friends the whole album was a big hit with fans. In their time this band was loved ! I would see this record up in front of record stores. Every song they ever did is memorable for fans.
a couple of years ago my ex hippie friend accidentally played this song instead of the mary hopkin one in my cousin's wedding when they told whey wanted to dance with" those were the days". their reactions were priceless 🤣🤣🤣
coming on to a hit of White Barrel acid, this song and I found myself covered in strange runes all over my body... it was summer 1969. strange to think of yourself - as a Survivor, but that is what I am along with a lot of other folks. And we are still doing our very best to fuck up the machine!!! Come on you FREEKS!!!
There is something absolutely unique about how Jack Bruce projects his voice, how he approaches each note, his phrasing, I don't know enough technically about singing to analyse or explain it, but to me among rock vocalists he just stands out, every time (like now) I get a Cream song in my head to listen to it is Jack's haunting, wordly wise vocals that draws me in
Are you silly ,, you think Clapton Bruce & Baker needed Felix ?? What did Felix do after cream that tells the story ?? Felix contributed but did not make cream shine or sparkle
@@motherlessblues1565 Felix arranged the studio songs to fit the album format. If he hadn't, it would have been one long jam. Cream was an improvising jam band.
Baker lays down a continuous barrage through out, with superb precision, and musical acumen. If you can tune out Jack's superb vocalization, and just listen to the drum track.
We would never have had Delaney, Bonnie and Friends, Blind Faith, Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs, nor Ginger's Air Force, etc, etc. Lighting in a bottle. Glad we caught it while it lasted.
Sadly, Clapton couldn't keep the needle out of his arm, and thank God he's clean now, but Jack and Ginger are gone, and Cream is only a faded memory of what could have been......
It is actually pretty miraculous that the band even got together at all or lasted much longer than the first rehearsal. Clapton recruited both separately unaware that they hated each other violently, as in literally violently. They obviously must have respected each others musicianship and the music was great which was enough to keep them together for a while, but it was never going to last long. Just be glad Jack and Ginger put the ego and the animosity aside long enough to create magnificent tracks like this.
HAHA they dont put up with the old shit anymore luckily they prefer to be seen as human beings now, and not being degraded to second class human by tiny men
@@viktorthevictor6240 "what does politics have to do with it?" why don't you ask the person rambling about "angry progressive feminists" for no apparent reason? it's very sad
They accomplished what music/art needed them to do. You don't have a clue what the popular music landscape(teen ballads , Beach Boy /prom date tosh)WAS before their emergence.
Music back then was just ….. better
The tuned bells make it unique. Long live Ginger Baker. Those were the days.
I heard once that Felix Pappalardi played the bells in this track
@@rubensjunior8586 I looked him up on Wikipedia, poor guy got shot and killed by his wife in 1983. He was a bassist among other notable things, and he could have played the bells on this cut, talented guy that he was.
@@rubensjunior8586 Yes, Felix added special touches on the studio sides of this album.
Felix played bass for Mountain.
Keith Moon was always my favorite rock drummer --- but, damn, Ginger Baker was a close second.
"Everybody thinks Ginger is just a drummer, but he's so much more."--Felix Pappalardi, Hit Parader, 1968.
GINGER WAS A GENIUS
I also love his song "What A Bringdown."

Ginger Baker lays down a super human barrage of precision and virtuosity on this track, that is unmatched. Plays the drums as a lead instrument.
From the first moment I heard Cream became an instant fan & will be a Cream fan forever , just the best ... R.I.P Jack Bruce .
The kind of song which the more you listen to, the more you like.
What a unique approach to playing drums - I don't think many drummers could do this.
what's so unique about it? genuine question, I'm not trying to be rude or a smartass

This clip may help illuminate the uniqueness of Ginger's approach to you 😀
Certainly one of my favorites Cream songs. Pity it was never a hit or was it ever performed live.
My favorite too.
It was the flip side of another Cream A-release. Can’t remember which one.
Flip side of “White Room.”
As someone born in ‘97 whose favorite band is Cream, it’s crazy to me that this could be released and not become a hit 🤯
Friends the whole album was a big hit with fans. In their time this band was loved ! I would see this record up in front of record stores. Every song they ever did is memorable for fans.
My favorite song of my favorite band of all time.
This is as classical as blues rock gets!
These were the days glad I was round to enjoy the experience
a couple of years ago my ex hippie friend accidentally played this song instead of the mary hopkin one in my cousin's wedding when they told whey wanted to dance with" those were the days". their reactions were priceless 🤣🤣🤣
Words cannot begin too describe@😂😂😂👍 😎
Glockenspiel undefeated
I cry at times and always keep it in my head when I hear this a different time and a different consciousness
Aging like wine

Marble barrel for me. ;-)
Awesome tune 🔥🔥🔥
those were the dqys yeah, living in LA IN THE 60'S AND 70'S you had to be there, it was definitely a good time!!
1st heard this on Heavy cream only on vinyl. Loved it with the swiss hand bells, sadly never got transferred to CD. but still one of my favourites.
RIP Ginger Baker 2019
Cream, Those were the days...so true.
@@burgersoft777 Yes they were!!
Drumming masterclass by Ginger
This song is AWESOME!! This is a punk rock song
Jack's vocals!

Greatest power trio ever!
This song is a revelation
I love the lyrics. Disclosure
Those Bells!!!
hello sir. how are you doing since you posted this comment? i like the bells too lol
I feel like they're less prominent and the bells are more in this mix.
Those bells takes this song to the skies.
Without Felix, wheels of fire would not sparkle as we know.
Are you silly ,, you think Clapton Bruce & Baker needed Felix ?? What did Felix do after cream that tells the story ??
Felix contributed but did not make cream shine or sparkle
@@motherlessblues1565 He produced Disraeli Gears and studio sides of Wheels of Fire. Nick is not silly.
@@josephtravers777 oh yes he is , your both in that club . Musicians of that caliber you don’t produce - you package you market but not produce.

@@josephtravers777 it’s packaged : formatted : but not produced in the normal sense. What would be wrong with a long jam ?

Ginger will live forever
Always wonderful tune !
yes they were!

Ginger had the time of his life performing this.
1:33 .....Incredible !! Forces of Power !!!
Agree. J. H.
Only if Cream had lasted some more years together, I could only imagine how much more material they could have given us. Rest in peace Jack and Ginger
We would never have had Delaney, Bonnie and Friends, Blind Faith, Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs, nor Ginger's Air Force, etc, etc. Lighting in a bottle. Glad we caught it while it lasted.

😂Thank Goodness 🤣
A Crescent MOON
Notice the old guys are flying what remains of our FREAK FLAGS !!!
💛👁️🙏
Jack...
Ginger !
Yes
Eric
All 3 Really shine on this,And those Bells!!!
All of them were great, absolutely brilliant musicians but... Jack Bruce was in my opinion the very best member of Cream. A unique talent
❤❤❤
That's how i learned to play bass guitar: Jack was my favoured
Ginger Baker. Amazing.
Клёво!!
💕🌹✝️

Those were the nights.
Even average guys like me got taken home from night clubs by nice women.
A world void of hateful progressive feminist.

A hugely overrated band (as much as I love Eric Clapton).
lol, this was the absolute zenith of claptons career
Overrated? That's not possible
One of the greatest rock bands ever. I’d say you were overrated but nobody ever rated you highly.
No, its the cream of rock, appropriate name
