5.0 out of 5 stars The Cream of All Concerts, February 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Live Cream Vol. 2 [Remaster] (Audio CD)

This album represents all the best of the later works of Cream. Throughout each song on this CD, Clapton's guitar sings along with Bruce, and Ginger Baker's backing drums work frantically to keep up. This is Cream at its peak, with great staples like White Room, Sunshine of Your Love, and Tales of Brave Ulysses performed as well as I've ever heard them.

But to hear perhaps one of Clapton's greatest ever performances caught on tape, check out the last track, "Steppin' Out." The song lasts well over ten minutes and is basically one long solo from Clapton, where he is, indeed, "steppin' out." A must-have for any Clapton/Cream/Rock/Blues/Jazz/60s/Music fan.

ONE OF CREAM'S BEST ALBUMS, EVERY TRACK IS GREAT, ESPECIALLY WITH THE AWESOME SHM AUDIO FORMAT. MUST HAVE FOR ANY CD COLLECTION, BUT DON'T PAY THESE RIDICULOUS OVER-INFLATED PRICES, I BOUGHT MINE FROM THE MUSIC SPECIALIST ON E BAY, THEY ALSO HAVE A STORE IN GEMM, ANTEATERMUSIC. SAVE YOURSELF A TON OF CASH.
CHEERS!

Hey, give it a try. While Live Cream concentrates on the first Cream album, Fresh Cream, Volume Two is the very accessable live Cream album, showcasing White Room and Sunshinve of Your Love. You might even like Deserted Cities of the Heart or Steppin' Out. There's Tales of Brave Ulysses and Politician, too. If you listen to a Rock station you've heard, probably, all theses songs.
The thing about Cream is all three of three of the guys liked to improvise, so a live version is different, perhaps radically so...So if you're like, "If I hear Sunshine of Your Love one more time I'm gonna scream," you might like the version on this CD, 'cause it's different.
I endorse all the posthumous Cream albums, but if you made me choose, I'd go with BBC. This one, however, is still very good.
