Recently revisited Cream
Always thought they never really reached their potential but "Disraeli Gears" holds up pretty well- wound up making myself a comp of my favorite tracks from the other albums (forgot how much filler was on "Wheels of Fire"). Though Cream is generally Clapton's best stuff, his guitar playing was arguably at its peak on John Mayall's debut (though the live "Crossroads" on "Wheels of Fire" is up there too). Anyway the little bit of solo EC I've heard has left me cold so never checked out any actual albums or comps. But I have a feeling that whoever posted this probably knows that- I'm sure there was some sort of point to this question but TBH I'm not really sure what it is. Happy New Year though, "Earl"
