Bruce was the primary songwriter and vocalist, although Clapton and Baker too sang and contributed songs. Formed from members of previously successful bands, they are widely regarded every bit the earth's first supergroup.^[2] Cream were highly regarded for the instrumental proficiency of each of their members. Tensions between Bruce and Baker led to their decision in May 1968 to suspension upward, though the band were persuaded to brand a final album, Goodbye, and to tour, culminating in 2 terminal cheerio concerts at the Majestic Albert Hall on 25 and 26 November 1968 which were filmed and shown in theatres, then in 1977 released every bit a abode video, Goodbye Concert.

History [edit]

Formation (1966) [edit]

By July 1966, Eric Clapton's career with the Yardbirds and John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers had earned him a reputation equally the premier blues guitarist in Britain.^[10] Clapton, nevertheless, found the surround of Mayall's band circumscribed, and sought to aggrandize his playing in a new ring. In 1966, Clapton met Ginger Baker, and so the drummer of the Graham Bond Organisation, for which Jack Bruce had played bass guitar, harmonica and pianoforte. Bakery felt stifled in the Graham Bail Organisation and had grown tired of Graham Bail's drug addictions and bouts of mental instability. "I had e'er liked Ginger", explained Clapton. "Ginger had come to see me play with the Bluesbreakers. After the gig he drove me back to London in his Rover. I was very impressed with his auto and driving. He was telling me that he wanted to start a band, and I had been thinking almost it too."^[xi]

Each was impressed with the other's playing abilities, prompting Bakery to ask Clapton to join his new, then-unnamed group. Clapton immediately agreed, on the condition that Bakery hire Bruce as the group'south bassist;^[5] according to Clapton, Baker was so surprised at the suggestion that he nearly crashed the car.^[12] Clapton had met Bruce when the bassist/vocalist briefly played with the Bluesbreakers in November 1965;^{[five] [13]} the 2 besides had recorded together equally function of an ad hoc group dubbed Powerhouse (which too included Steve Winwood and Paul Jones). Impressed with Bruce's vocals and technical prowess, Clapton wanted to work with him on an ongoing basis.

In contrast, while Bruce was in Bond's band, he and Baker had been notorious for their quarrelling.^[14] Their volatile relationship included on-phase fights and the demolition of ane another'southward instruments.^[xiv] After Baker fired Bruce from the band, Bruce continued to arrive for gigs; ultimately, Bruce was driven away from the ring after Baker threatened him at knifepoint.^[15]

Baker and Bruce tried to put aside their differences for the good of Baker's new trio, which he envisioned equally collaborative, with each of the members contributing to music and lyrics. The ring was named "Foam", as Clapton, Bruce, and Bakery were already considered the "cream of the crop" amid blues and jazz musicians in the exploding British music scene. Initially, the grouping were referred to and billed as "The Cream", but starting officially with its commencement record releases, the trio came to be known as "Cream".^[13] Despite this, the band was referred to as "The Cream" on several occasions by promoters and disc jockeys, and even on occasion past the band members themselves. Before deciding upon "Cream", the band considered calling themselves "Sweet 'n' Sour Stone 'n' Roll".^[4] Of the trio, Clapton had the biggest reputation in England; however, he was all but unknown in the US, having left the Yardbirds before "For Your Honey" hit the American Pinnacle Ten.^[ten]

The band made its unofficial debut at the Twisted Wheel on 29 July 1966.^{[5] [12]} Its official debut came two nights later at the Sixth Almanac Windsor Jazz & Blues Festival.^{[5] [12]} Being new and with few original songs to its credit, they performed dejection reworkings that thrilled the large oversupply and earned it a warm reception. In October the band also got a take chances to jam with Jimi Hendrix, who had recently arrived in London. Hendrix was a fan of Clapton's music, and wanted a take a chance to play with him onstage.^[5]

It was during the early organisation that they decided Bruce would serve as the group's lead vocalist. While Clapton was shy about singing,^[16] he occasionally harmonised with Bruce and, in fourth dimension, took lead vocals on several Foam tracks including "Four Until Belatedly", "Strange Mash", "World of Pain", "Outside Adult female Blues", "Crossroads", and "Bluecoat".

Fresh Foam (1966) [edit]

The band's debut album, Fresh Foam, was recorded and released in 1966. The album reached number 6 in the UK charts and number 39 in the US. It was evenly split between cocky-penned originals and blues covers, including "Four Until Late", "Rollin' and Tumblin'", "Spoonful", "I'g And then Glad"^[17] and "Cat'south Squirrel". The rest of the songs were written past either Jack Bruce or Ginger Baker. ("I Feel Free", a UK hit unmarried,^[5] was included on only the American edition of the LP.) The track "Toad" contained one of the earliest examples of a drum solo in stone music every bit Ginger Bakery expanded upon his early composition "Camels and Elephants", written in 1965 with the Graham Bond Arrangement.

Early on Cream bootlegs brandish a much tighter band showcasing more than songs.^{[ citation needed ]} All of the songs are reasonably brusk, including five-minute versions of "Due north.S.U.", "Sweet Wine" and "Toad". But a mere two months later, the setlist shortened, with the songs then much longer.

Disraeli Gears (1967) [edit]

The ring first visited the US in March 1967 to play ix dates at the RKO 58th Street Theatre in New York Urban center. There was lilliputian impact, as impresario Murray the Thou placed them at the bottom of a half-dozen-deed bill that performed iii times per date, eventually reducing the ring to ane vocal per concert.^{[ commendation needed ]} They returned to record Disraeli Gears in New York between eleven and xv May 1967.^[18] This, the band's second anthology, was released in November 1967 and reached the top v in the charts on both sides of the Atlantic.^{[ citation needed ]} Produced by Felix Pappalardi (who later on co-founded the Cream-influenced quartet Mount) and engineer Tom Dowd, information technology was recorded at Atlantic Studios in New York. Disraeli Gears is often considered to be the ring'due south defining attempt, successfully blending psychedelic British rock with American blues.^{[ commendation needed ]}

Disraeli Gears too included "Sunshine of Your Dear", which became the grouping's unofficial canticle, and is probably their best-known song today.^[17] Bruce and Pete Dark-brown came upon the idea in a country of near desperation in the wee hours. In a final-ditch attempt to salvage something from the long and fruitless night at his flat, the bleary-eyed Bruce pulled out his double bass again and played a riff. At that signal, Brown looked out the window and saw the sun was near to rise: "It's getting near dawn", he said to himself. Chocolate-brown put the words on paper and so idea some more: "When lights close their tired optics".

The album was originally slated for release in the summer of 1967, but the record characterization opted to scrap the planned embrace and repackage it with a new psychedelic cover, designed by artist Martin Sharp, and the resulting changes delayed its release for several months.^{[ citation needed ]} The comprehend was remarkable for the time, with a psychedelic pattern patterned over a publicity photo of the trio.

Although the album is considered one of Foam's finest efforts, it has never been well represented in the ring's live sets.^{[ citation needed ]} Although they consistently played "Tales of Dauntless Ulysses" and "Sunshine of Your Beloved", several songs from Disraeli Gears were chop-chop dropped from performances in mid-1967, favouring longer jams instead of curt popular songs. "We're Going Wrong" was the only boosted vocal from the album the group performed live. In fact, at their 2005 reunion shows in London, the ring played merely three songs from Disraeli Gears: "Outside Woman Blues", "We're Going Wrong", and "Sunshine of Your Beloved"; at their 3 October 2005 performances in New York, "Tales of Brave Ulysses" was also included in the setlist.

In August 1967, the band played their first headlining dates in the Us, commencement at The Fillmore in San Francisco and subsequently at The Pinnacle in Los Angeles. The concerts were a great success and proved very influential on both the ring itself and the flourishing hippie scene surrounding them. Upon discovering a growing listening audience, the band began to stretch out on stage, incorporating more than time in their repertoire, some songs reaching jams of twenty minutes. Long, drawn-out jams in numbers like "Spoonful", "Due north.Due south.U.", "I'chiliad And then Glad", and "Sugariness Wine" became live favourites, while songs like "Sunshine of Your Dearest", "Crossroads", and "Tales of Brave Ulysses" remained reasonably short.^{[ citation needed ]}

Wheels of Fire (1968) [edit]

In 1968 came the ring's tertiary release, Wheels of Fire, which topped the American charts. The album was recorded in a spate of short sessions from July 1967 to June 1968.^{[ citation needed ]} Still a relative novelty, the double anthology of 2 LP records was well-suited to extended solos. The Wheels of Fire studio recordings showcased the band moving away from the blues and more towards a semi-progressive stone fashion highlighted by odd fourth dimension signatures and diverse orchestral instruments.^{[ citation needed ]} However, the band did record Howlin' Wolf'southward "Sitting on Top of the Globe" and Albert King'due south "Born Under a Bad Sign". According to a BBC interview with Clapton, the record company, Atco Records, too treatment Albert King, asked the band to cover "Born Under a Bad Sign", which became a popular rail off the record.^{[ citation needed ]} The opening song, "White Room", became a radio staple. Another song, "Pol", was written by the band while waiting to perform alive at the BBC.^[11] The album'due south second disc included three live recordings from the Winterland Ballroom and i from the Fillmore. Clapton's 2nd solo from "Crossroads" has fabricated it to the top 20 in multiple "greatest guitar solo" lists.^{[19] [20]}

Later on the completion of Wheels of Fire in mid-1968, the band members had grown tired of their exhausting touring schedule and increasingly loud jamming, and wanted to get their separate ways. Baker stated in a 2006 interview with Music Mart magazine, "It only got to the point where Eric said to me: 'I've had enough of this', and I said and so take I. I couldn't stand up it. The last year with Cream was merely agony. It damaged my hearing permanently, and today I've still got a hearing problem because of the sheer volume throughout the last yr of Cream. But it didn't commencement off like that. In 1966, information technology was not bad. It was really a wonderful experience musically, and information technology only went into the realms of stupidity."^{[ citation needed ]} Bruce and Baker's flammable relationship proved even worse as a result of the strain put upon the band past non-cease touring, forcing Clapton to play the perpetual office of peacekeeper.

Clapton had besides go interested in the music of Bob Dylan'south quondam backing group, now known as the Band, and their debut anthology, Music from Big Pink,^[5] which proved to exist a welcome breath of fresh air to Clapton in comparison to the psychedelia and volume that had defined Foam. Furthermore, he had read a scathing Foam review in Rolling Rock, a publication he had much admired, in which the reviewer, Jon Landau, called him a "master of the dejection cliché".^[five] In the wake of that article, Clapton wanted to stop Cream and pursue a different musical management.

At the beginning of the ring's farewell tour on iv October 1968, in Oakland, California, nearly the entire set consisted of songs from Wheels of Fire: "White Room", "Politician", "Crossroads", "Spoonful", and "Deserted Cities of the Heart", with "Passing the Time" taking the identify of "Toad" for a drum solo. "Passing the Time" and "Deserted Cities" were rapidly removed from the setlist and replaced past "Sitting on Top of the World" and "Toad".^{[ citation needed ]}

Goodbye and break-up (1968–1969) [edit]

From its creation, Cream was faced with some cardinal bug that would afterward pb to its dissolution in November 1968. The antagonism between Bruce and Bakery created tensions in the band. Clapton as well felt that the members of the band did not heed to each other enough. Equipment during these years had likewise improved; new Marshall amplifier stacks produced more ability, and Jack Bruce pushed the book levels higher, creating tension for Baker, who would have trouble competing with roaring stacks. Clapton spoke of a concert during which he stopped playing and neither Baker nor Bruce noticed.^[14] Clapton has too commented that Cream's afterwards gigs mainly consisted of its members showing off.^[21]

Cream decided that they would break up in May 1968 during a bout of the Us.^[22] Later, in July, the ring appear that they would break upwardly later on a farewell tour of the US and after playing two concerts in London. Jack Bruce was quoted as saying "Travel can kill a grouping. It becomes tiresome, tiring and very depressing."^[23]

Foam were eventually persuaded to practice one final album, appropriately titled Cheerio. The anthology was recorded in late 1968 and released in early 1969, after the ring had broken upwards.^{[ citation needed ]} Information technology comprised six songs: three live recordings dating from a concert at The Forum in Los Angeles, California, on xix October, and three new studio recordings (including "Badge", which was written by Clapton and George Harrison, who as well played rhythm guitar and was credited every bit "L'Angelo Misterioso"). "I'm And then Glad" was included among the live tracks.

Cream'south farewell tour consisted of 22 shows at nineteen venues in the US from 4 October to 4 November 1968, and ii final goodbye concerts at the Royal Albert Hall on 25 and 26 November 1968. The final U.s. gig was at the Rhode Island Auditorium on four November. The band arrived late and, due to local restrictions, were able to perform only ii songs, "Toad" and a twenty+ minute version of "Spoonful".^{[ commendation needed ]} The two Imperial Albert Hall concerts were filmed for a BBC documentary and released on video (and later DVD) as Adieu Concert. Both shows were sold out and attracted more attention than any other Cream concert, just their performance was regarded past many as beneath standard. Bakery himself said of the concerts: "It wasn't a good gig ... Cream was better than that ... We knew it was all over. We knew we were just finishing it off, getting it over with." Bruce had three Marshall stacks on phase for the cheerio shows but one acted simply as a spare, and he only used one or two, depending on the song.^[22] In an interview from Cream: Archetype Artists, he added that the ring was getting worse by the infinitesimal.

Post-Cream [edit]

Blind Faith, a band that included both Clapton and Baker, was formed afterwards the demise of Cream, post-obit an attempt past Clapton to recruit Steve Winwood into Cream in the promise that he would assist act as a buffer between Bruce and Baker.^[12] Inspired by more song-based acts, Clapton went on to perform very different, less improvisational material with Delaney & Bonnie, Derek and the Dominos, and in his own long and varied solo career.^{[ citation needed ]}

Bruce began a varied and successful solo career with the 1969 release of Songs for a Tailor, while Baker formed a jazz-fusion ensemble out of the ashes of Blind Faith chosen Ginger Bakery's Air Force, with Winwood, Blind Faith bassist Rick Grech, Graham Bail on saxophone, and guitarist Denny Laine of the Moody Blues and (later) Wings.^{[ citation needed ]}

All iii members connected to explore new musical ideas and partnerships, play concerts and record music for over four decades later ending Foam.

Reunions [edit]

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame [edit]

In 1993, Cream were inducted into the Rock and Curl Hall of Fame and re-formed to perform at the induction ceremony.^[24] Initially, the trio were wary nigh performing, until encouraging words from Robbie Robertson inspired them to try. ^[25] The set consisted of "Sunshine of Your Dearest", "Crossroads", and "Born Under a Bad Sign", a song they had not previously played alive.^{[ commendation needed ]} Clapton mentioned in his acceptance voice communication that their rehearsal the day before the anniversary had marked the get-go time they had played together in 25 years.^[5] This performance spurred rumours of a reunion tour. Bruce and Baker said in later on interviews that they were, indeed, interested in touring as Cream.^{[ commendation needed ]} A formal reunion did not take place immediately, every bit Clapton, Bruce and Baker continued to pursue solo projects, although the latter 2 worked together again in the mid-1990s as 2-thirds of the power trio BBM with Irish dejection rock guitarist Gary Moore.

2005 concerts [edit]

At Clapton'due south asking, Cream reunited for a series of four shows, on two, iii, v, and half dozen May 2005 at the Imperial Albert Hall in London, the venue of their final concerts in 1968.^[26] Although the three musicians chose not to speak publicly virtually the shows, Clapton would later state that he had become more "generous" in regard to his by, and that the physical wellness of Bruce and Bakery was a major factor:^[26] Bruce had recently undergone a transplant for liver cancer in 2003, and had almost lost his life, while Baker had severe arthritis.

Tickets for all 4 shows sold out in under an hr. The performances were recorded for a alive CD and DVD. Among those in attendance were Bill Wyman, Steve Winwood,^[27] Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Roger Waters, Brian May, Jimmy Page, and Mick Taylor.^[28] The reunion marked the first fourth dimension the band had played "Badge" and "Pressed Rat and Warthog" alive.^[26]

Inspired by the success of the reunion, the band agreed to an additional gear up of 3 shows at the Madison Square Garden in New York Metropolis, from 24–26 Oct 2005.^[29] According to Clapton, these concerts did not live upwards to the Majestic Albert Hall performances due to, among other reasons, lack of rehearsal and the resurgence of old grudges amidst ring members.^[30]

Postal service-2005 [edit]

In Feb 2006, Cream received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in recognition of their contribution to, and influence upon, modern music.^{[31] [32]} That same month, a "Archetype Albums" DVD was released detailing the story behind the creation and recording of Disraeli Gears. On the day prior to the Grammy ceremony, Bruce made a public statement that more one-off performances of Cream had been planned: multiple dates in a few cities, similar to the Majestic Albert Hall and Madison Square Garden shows.

However, this story was refuted by both Clapton and Baker, first by Clapton in a Times of London article from April 2006. The commodity stated that when asked virtually Cream, Clapton said: "No. Not for me. Nosotros did it and it was fun. Only life is too short. I've got lots of other things I would rather do, including staying at home with my kids. The thing most that ring was that it was all to do with its limits ... it was an experiment." In an interview in the Great britain magazine Music Mart, most the release of a DVD about the Bullheaded Faith concert in Hyde Park 1969, Baker commented well-nigh his unwillingness to continue the Cream reunion. These comments were far more than specific and explosive than Clapton'southward, as they were centred effectually his human relationship with Jack Bruce. Ginger said, "When he's Dr. Jekyll, he's fine ... It'southward when he's Mr. Hyde that he'due south not. And I'thousand afraid he's nevertheless the same. I tell yous this – at that place won't ever exist whatsoever more Foam gigs, because he did Mr. Hyde in New York final year."^[33]

When asked to elaborate, Baker replied:

Oh, he shouted at me on stage, he turned his bass upwardly so loud that he deafened me on the outset gig. What he does is that he apologises and apologises, just I'm afraid, to do it on a Cream reunion gig, that was the end. He killed the magic, and New York was like 1968 ... Information technology was but a go through the gig, get the money sort of deal. I was absolutely amazed. I mean, he demonstrated why he got the sack from Graham Bond and why Cream didn't last very long on stage in New York. I didn't desire to do it in the first place simply because of how Jack was. I have worked with him several times since Cream, and I promised myself that I would never piece of work with him again. When Eric first came up with the idea, I said no, and then he phoned me up and eventually convinced me to practice it. I was on my best behaviour and I did everything I could to make things go as smooth as possible, and I was really pleasant to Jack.^[33]

Bakery and Bruce appeared on stage in London when Bakery was awarded a lifetime accomplishment laurels by legendary cymbal manufacturer Zildjian.^{[ citation needed ]} Bruce told Detroit'due south WCSX radio station in May 2007 that in that location were plans for a Cream reunion subsequently in the twelvemonth. It was later on revealed that the potential performance was to be Nov 2007 in London every bit a tribute to Ahmet Ertegun. The band decided against it and this was confirmed by Bruce in a letter to the editor of the Jack Bruce fanzine, The Cuicoland Limited, dated 26 September 2007:

Dear Marc,
Nosotros were going to exercise this tribute concert for Ahmet when it was to be at the Regal Albert Hall merely decided to pass when information technology was moved to the O2 Loonshit and seemed to be becoming overly commercial.

The headlining act for the O2 Arena Ahmet Ertegun Tribute Concert (postponed to December 2007) turned out to be from another reunited English hard-stone act, Led Zeppelin. In an interview with BBC half-dozen Music in April 2010, Bruce confirmed that there would be no more Foam shows, stating simply, "Cream is over."^[34] Bruce died on 25 October 2014 and Baker died on vi October 2019, leaving Clapton as the last surviving member.^{[35] [36]}
