  2. That's a classic 60's power trio, like Cream.

  3. You speak of Cream. They were really my favorite, but Ginger Baker would go too far In his solo's. I love drums, but not for 20 minutes. Those songs were just plain amazing. At least we won't drop dead not knowing what GOOD music was.

  4. Both Blue Cheer and Cream are great bands.

    Blue Cheer-considered the godfather of godfather of heavy metal, brought over drenched fuzzed out guitars to plate with their excellent 1968 debut release Vincebus Eruptus. It's a must have to any great music collection.

    Toad-What a coincidence, Ginger Baker's masterpiece from Cream is called Toad. If you want to hear some mind blowing excellent live Cream without all the drawn out solos, Royal Albert Hall May 2,3,5,6 2005 is the album for you. Cream reunited for a handful of tour dates back back in 2005 and pulled off a fresh new sound to their classics. It's a HUGE improvement over their earlier live materiel.

  5. Drew, I knew It was Toad, but always skip over It, because I can't stand It for so long. I always listen with ear covering headphones, and I really gets to me. He Is a great drummer, just a bit of an ego. Somewhere In my house I have a PINK VINYL album that was released UNDERGROUND. If I ever find out It's worth a million, I will have to tear the house apart.
