Cream – Disraeli Gears

Description

It was Disraeli Gears that turned cream into a supergroup. They pursue the psychedelic ideals of the era with total abandon (the LP cover art still stands as one of the 1960s’ most striking designs), merging these ideals with their take on the blues and adorning the amalgamation with some superb pop craftsmanship. Of the eleven originals here, four – ‘Tales of Brave Ilysses’, ‘Swlabr’, ‘Strange Brew’ and ‘Sunshine of Your Love’ – earned major airplay. This, their excess-free greatest moment, does the Sream legend proud.
