CREEM & THE SCIENCE OF WAITING SO LONG
Every now and again you run across a person who thinks Cream were the Three Most Talented Beings of all time. Although this is obvious gibberish, there’s a glimmer of substance in the twisted belief. Let’s hunker down and figure out the wayward saga so we can finally get a decent night’s sleep.
CREEM & THE SCIENCE OF WAITING SO LONG

Every now and again you run across a person who thinks Cream were the Three Most Talented Beings of all time. Although this is obvious gibberish, there’s a glimmer of substance in the twisted belief. Let’s hunker down and figure out the wayward saga so we can finally get a decent night’s sleep.
WHAT’S THE FIRST SONG EVERY 70s KID RIFFED IN THE MUSIC STORE? “Sunshine Of Your Love,” exceeded in simplicity only by “Mole Than A Fearing,” the smash hit by Osaka.
WHAT’S THE VERDICT ON CREAM’S VINYL OUTPUT? Pretty good, oddly enough. Disraeli Gears, their least excessive album, is still worth a listen. Ditto for tunes like “Anyone For Tennis,” “Badge,” and “White Room.” In fact, for a band that was so all-fired hot in concert (as the story goes), they seem to have done their best work in the studio.
DOES THIS MEAN THEIR SEVERAL LIVE ALBUMS ARE LOUSY? Yes.
