A Must Buy

"Any rock music fan who honestly listens to this album and does not feel it is worth the purchase price must think E. John's "Philadelphia Freedom" belongs in the all time classic 100. These live cuts are true, raw, and well delivered. The "Big Muff" and other cosmetic pedals are left in the studio. Any of you Barry Manilow musicians out there that are not convinced of Bruce's talent can try playing the bass line of "Sitting On Top..." while singing. The idiot that reviews The Cream for The Rolling Stone obviously thought that The Electric Flag and Chicago were the leaders and the ones that were going to leave the lasting impression on the music world."

This is an album that has aged like fine wine

"I love this album. If you want to hear the best live song ever put on vinyl (sound quality excluded) then listen to "Sitting On Top of The World." Jack Bruce's voice, which to me is in the same league as Lennon, Jagger, Jim Morrison and Stephen Stills, is in top form.........hard to do live. Although "Badge" is a great song, it pales in comparison to "What a Bringdown" and "Doin' that Scrapyard Thing." Though it is obvious that Zeppelin, the Beatles and Jimi will never play again, I would pay alot of money to see these guys play live again. Here's a toast to one of the five greatest bands to ever grace the Rock and Roll stage. Cream, after all these years, you still deliver."

Underrated Masterpiece

"Why the h--- does everybody hate this CD? I know...because it doesn't sound like the original Cream recordings. Well, I as a music fan believe that no track on this album is weak. God save the Cream."
