to rock music back in the late 60s and early 70s might remember a 3 man group that was the first so called "super group". Consisting of Jack Bruce, bass and vocals, Ginger Baker, drums and Eric Clapton, lead guitar and vocals. They were known simply as CREAM. Now 45 years later, they sound pretty much the same..
Always good. Clapton is amazing. Thanks.

Clapton at his best. The song was banned from most AM radio stations but our FM station played it a lot. The song Cocaine.

They playwd Chastain Park Arena in 1970 maybe. I had a friend that lived near the park. We sat on his roof,listened to Cream and as I recall got totally into the moment. We were either drunk or stoned, take your pick. However, the statue of limitations has run out on that by about 40 plus years.
that is what I miss about radio. Every weekend we

had a different rock group in concert in the Nashville Auditorium or other auditoriums according to what station I was working for at the time. Some groups were prima donas but most like Grand Funk down below were just into good rock & roll. Good times.
what about the groupies and booze. Don't you miss them?

my butt playing records for 5 hours a day. Like the words from the song go..."money for nothing and the chicks are free". I never got into the drugs at all but had my share of the free booze and the "chicks". So I guess I miss that a bit too.
