Editorial Reviews

On guitar: Eric Clapton. Lead singer and bass guitarist: Jack Bruce. On drums: Ginger Baker. Their motto: "Forget the message, forget the lyrics, and just play." Their name: Cream. For two glorious years, Cream's high-volume blues, jamming and extended solos blazed a path into rock history. But the time to part had come, and all that remained was one wild, unforgettable concert. Now you are there, on November 26, 1968, inside London's illustrious Royal Albert Hall, jammed to its gilded rafters with rock fans ready for the final concert of what many still consider the greatest band that ever played. Includes rare off-stage interviews with the band members. Songs: Sunshine of Your Love, Politician, White Room, Spoonful, Toad, I'm So Glad.

2.0 out of 5 stars Diamonds in the Mud, December 11, 1999

This review is from: Farewell Concert [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video leaves much to be desired. It has too much inane narration and not enough music. Rather than presenting the entire concert only excerpts from a few songs are included. Interviews with the performers are often insightful but also laughable. Cheesy psychedelic visual effects were added that obscure the performance so don't expect to be able to carefully observe the band in action. Although this video is mostly disappointing, some great music and great playing does occasionally shine through the mud. Lower your expectations and you'll probably find it entertaining.
