Album of the Day

On this day in 1966, Ginger Baker, Jack Bruce and Eric Clapton joined forces as Cream; though only together for a couple of years, the group left a lasting legacy. The trio also had a remarkable coda to their career – more than 35 years after their farewell gig, they reunited at the same venue for a sold-out series of concerts. The multi-platinum ROYAL ALBERT HALL LONDON MAY 2-3-5-6, 2005 includes such signature songs as “I'm So Glad,” “Badge,” “Spoonful,” “White Room” and “Sunshine Of Your Love” and shows the “supergroup” label to be entirely deserved. Despite the many years apart, the musical chemistry is obvious on these 19 tracks, and one of rock's unlikeliest reunions becomes one of its most powerful on ROYAL ALBERT HALL LONDON MAY 2-3-5-6, 2005.
