Yep, I’m pushing 68 and seeing this performance of one of my favourite bands of my youth is very satisfying. Particularly because this performance is astounding 🥰
Cockriel D I thought the same thing, earlier he seems to give a nod to Ginger as well. I know they all had their differences when they were in Cream but the bond between them must have been very strong.
They had no egos left to stoke, nothing left to prove, and it's no longer important to be right. I'm so glad they got to do this once more in this life, for us and for them-- it may have felt like something was missing otherwise.
Cockriel - you are correct -- wonderful observation. I'm glad they had this concert. To think that Disraeli Gears was largely overshadowed by Sgt. Pepper. There was room for both albums, to be sure.
Writer and bluesman Skip James hated Cream's arrangement of I'm So Glad when the group brought it to popularity. In a strange twist of fate- the record royalty paid for Skip's funeral expenses. Not to trust the bean counters at the record company, Jack Bruce personally delivered those funds directly to Skip James's widow to cover the costs. A decent burial.
I will add one true point. When Eric heard that Skip had cancer, he paid for Skip's Cancer treatment. And then we saw Skip play later at Newport along with Mississippi-John Hurt. There is a good video of them at that concert. Thank you Eric for showing your generous spirit. Eric also helped Bobby Whitlock too. Check out Bobby Whitlock's channel w. Coco Carmel ( his wife) - a great channel if you want to learn rockn'roll history. She does a great job recording and guiding Bobby's comments. Amazing, all of these guys. The younger generation could learn a lot from them. Thank you for reading this, now go out and share. Thank you...
Skip James' widow told Jack Bruce that they received more $ off CREAM doing "I'm So Glad" than Skip made in his entire career, This was off of facebook
I keep this performance close to my heart. The album's been with me for more than 15 years and I still keep coming back to it. Lovely and brilliant playing + the sound's great (for once with Cream ..). Fresh Cream never goes sour, it only matures. Sourcream forever. I love these guys
What makes this Concert so remarkable is the fact that they did not engage large Brass Sections, 3 Keyboarders, 5 Background singers and lots of Guitarists like many other Bands do (for instance "The Who") but just do their unimitable thing with three instruments and two (ok, two and a half) voices. Great Stuff and thumbs ten times up!
What a precious piece of rock history. These three guys are all stars in their own right. It is quite clear that they allow each instrument to be heard clearly. Three masters shining bright for us. I've seen Clapton and he is brilliant, however, is there another three piece as good as these guys? Blessed by this!

of ALL the super groups of the past Revival Concerts ...THIS has to be the BEST. Sound quality. Image quality. Set list. everything is fucking TOP notch.
@@greglarry11 It is hard to believe Bruce nd Baker are gone. Cream opened the door for me to real music when I was 12yrs old. Fifty years on and I am still exploring!
Outstanding! Where on Earth would you find 22 idiots bold enough to give this the thumbs down? I would suggest not one of those 22 have ever played a single note in front of anyone. Somewhere in the world there are at least 22 villages looking for their lost idiots and a good place to start looking would be the fools that bothered to go to the effort of not liking this. What the fuck have we come to?? RIP Jack - you are the man!!!
"I'm So Glad".....they decided to do these shows in 2005 at Royal Albert Hall in London.....and from the smiles on their faces they were fairly happy too.....sounds incredible.....extended standing ovation as they come on stage.....its for the respect that they command concert after concert after concert....
Fantastic moment when all those people are standing and applauding! Just look at Jack Bruce’s smile as he looks over at Clapton as if to say, yeah “We’ve still go it!”
I'm so glad!! We had CREAM!! Thank you guys for so much good music and memories!! Out of everything Eric Clapton did, cream was favorite!! Those three together were like three peas in a pod!! Perfect, and meant to be!!
I think the most amazing about these three is that they're all doing their own weird stuff almost like playing different songs but somehow the whole thing it's not only coherent but it's sounds amazing. Pure musical magic.
Oh THANK YOU you guys for doing this! You were the best in 1968 and you are still. Thank you Eric, thank you Ginger, and thank you and rest in peace Jack Bruce. You were good. Really really good.
I'm 60 now but I remember the first time I heard them live on "Wheels..." Jack Bruce was and is my musical hero for so many reasons. I learned to play Train Time when I was a kid now I play bass. There is so much going on by these three. I'm so glad when I can keep up...sort of!
they used to say cream was like 3 musicians soloing at once - the groove is so deep during that solo it's amazing; jack bruce is playing double stops like the whole time, ginger keeps changing the beat, it's just amazing.
The recording is the best I have heard on you tube. I have the miracle Harmon Kardon speaker and can play this music 2x what a typical Rock Band" with no noticeable distortion. At that time- they really had no peer although Dave Mason/Capaldi/Gordon and Winwood were very high quality. Dave Mason has changed the most- that skinny kid with long thick hair plays his tunes and the songs still sound very appealing- How do I get to heaven" and his watchtower with his big hands -one of the best. He is to me an enigma.
Listen up kids. This is music from the best of the very best, the eternal greats. Their real voices, musical instruments void of any sync crap. When you reach my age, there is nothing from your generation that you will look back to that can compare. If you live long enough you will remember I told you so. Enjoy!
I remember listening to this song in Nam in 69 on LZ English on a friends reel to reel player. God it made us feel so good. Don't know why but I sure remember smiling whenever this played. Thanks
Questa è musica, oggi non abbiamo più nessuno che ti faccia provare questi sentimenti. Quella che ascoltiamo oggi è una tristezza su tutti gli aspetti, puoi ascoltarla in qualsiasi modo, ma non si può definire musica. E' una vera tristezza!
Viejos recuerdos de una banda icónica! En México desde el año 68 a través de los discos de acetato se conoció a la fantástica banda de la Crema. Todos músicos de un gran nivel, en especial el bajo y magnífica voz de Jack Bruce...🍀
a friend of mine and I will be getting back together again after 40 years. we once had a band in the 70's my friend Joe is a guitar player, he has m.s. and is confined to a wheelchair. I'm 62 and Being eaten alive by diabetes. the other two guys are old now so I'm sure they have their problems too. thing is, once you have the love for music and your instrument you never stop.
i know what you mean i got arachnoiditis ,,bad bad bummer but i still like to watch these guys , i will never stop thanks for putting this up ,,,please dont take it down till we are all gone LOL,,,,OK i am adding this on july of 2018 ,,,,,now i am learning about health care and our bodys and how we are suppose to function ,,,drs will lie for money ,,,,,period ,,,peace/loce
Watching Clapton wait for Ginger Baker to adjust his earpiece then seeing Ginger give the nod back to Eric to start the show gave me shivers up my spine the first time I saw it.
For the concert as a whole: I know that they each had been playing their instruments for over 40 years at this point but still they make it look so damn easy when it's difficult
Don't you just love the nod Jack gives Eric at the end. Wonderful stuff. It still sends shivers down my back hearing this as I was lucky enough to get seat in the stalls 14 rows from the front right in front of Eric on the first night a magic concert, and getting Brian May's autograph afterwards was an amazing bonus
I cant believe it has been five years since my dear friend, Jack Bruce, left us. Now Ginger is gone too, but their music is forever. While Jack was an all-time great bass player, it was his singing that really impressed me. I had the pleasure of working with Jack on Kip Hanrahan's American Clave recordings. Jack was an amazing musician, a better friend, and a charming human being.
This song was playing in 1969 just after I'd written my final exams in my second year at McMaster University. It came from somewhere, a car radio, or out of someone's apartment. How I loved THE CREAM, especially Jack Bruce.
Remember back in 1969 we dropped some a. Made a few babies, we lived the best we could, no one shows you the road, you find it yourself, you may be on a wrong way, but them roads are long, and sooner or later we find ourselves on the right road, im so glad 😊

peace and love from Morocco to all fans of Cream I'm 22y old fan for 5 years, ginger, bruce, eric Thank you for everything
Had a rough day at work today, got home, popped open a cold one, and cranked this up on the stereo. Makes you feel like a million bucks! What a jam!!!
I just turned 70 and I'm so glad I had this Band in my youth!
Yep, I’m pushing 68 and seeing this performance of one of my favourite bands of my youth is very satisfying. Particularly because this performance is astounding 🥰
turning 73 soon, i hope, & i share the same feeling!
Music today(if you can call it that) cannot stand up to this!
It's so nice that they were able to come back one more time before Jack and Ginger left us. That makes this performance all the more significant.
yes
really
Amen. So happy Eric Clapton called them up to do this. I think maybe Eric was thinking this is some unfinished business that needed to happen.
@@greglarry11 so true from you. Thank you for my Thoughts
john scialfa chXX forx
J
72 years old and Alot of miles listening to this Band.. They raised the bar for sure...😎
i am also glad that those lads were able to perform all the magic they could do
Jack's nod to Eric at the end gives me goosebumps every time; the amount of history/significance within that single gesture is astounding.
Cockriel D I thought the same thing, earlier he seems to give a nod to Ginger as well. I know they all had their differences when they were in Cream but the bond between them must have been very strong.

+Cockriel D They looked, they smiled, all is well!
the moment at 5:18 is just priceless

Sounds like something He would do. Always seemed like a Stand up Guy.

And so are we!!!
I love this concert, so much! I am fascinated by Jack Bruce's bass playing. He's awesome...they all are. I wish everyone heard this, it's that good!
linda you have good taste i can sure say that LOL from an old timer drummer . enjoy
Linda, questa è la crema.
it really is that good............
RIP Ginger, your heritage will never forget. This awesome music will live forever and ever. Thanks you for this.
This performance shows what an iconic band they were...in every aspect...legendary!
I keep this performance close to my heart. The album's been with me for more than 15 years and I still keep coming back to it. Lovely and brilliant playing + the sound's great (for once with Cream ..). Fresh Cream never goes sour, it only matures. Sourcream forever. I love these guys
Such an incredible performance. So happy it’s just the three of them. Such seasoned musicians 😀
" I'am So Glad" that I was alive back in the day, to hear them for the first time and that I can still listen to them NOW!!
Arguably the greatest guitarist , bass player and drummer of all time.... and yes Jacks little nod to Eric at the end gets me every time
What makes this Concert so remarkable is the fact that they did not engage large Brass Sections, 3 Keyboarders, 5 Background singers and lots of Guitarists like many other Bands do (for instance "The Who") but just do their unimitable thing with three instruments and two (ok, two and a half) voices.

According to clapton, he only done it because he got paid a million quid for each of the 5 gigs.
I wonder how many concerts you do a year
What a precious piece of rock history. These three guys are all stars in their own right. It is quite clear that they allow each instrument to be heard clearly. Three masters shining bright for us. I've seen Clapton and he is brilliant, however, is there another three piece as good as these guys? Blessed by this!
ABSOLUTE CLASS
I'm so glad... to see the old guys showing the young'uns how it's done.
Boy , I feel ya
So glad they did this, full circle

Cream got it wrong. WE'RE so glad to have been around when they were.
Well done, guys!
We're all glad they did this (most of us)
Ginger Baker’s drumming really nails it. His beats are not just complementary. His beats carry this song.
Those three led each other
Synchrony, man.
Ginger Baker was such a monster behind drums!!!!
Oh Yes, banging with no rytm.
So unorthodox, like his fills right after they sing "I'm so glad"! His fills are like boxes tumbling down in a warehouse!!
@@sheistcoffHahahah
How many bands can get back together after the best part of forty years apart and still sound just as good?
It is such a treat to see these three. I love seeing Clapton playing such a diverse amount of guitar. RIP Jack and Ginger. A truly great group.
@@greglarry11 It is hard to believe Bruce nd Baker are gone. Cream opened the door for me to real music when I was 12yrs old. Fifty years on and I am still exploring!
They do sound great.
not many if any at all
Four
"I'm Glad" I had the opportunity to listen to this man play Bass ...He inspired me greatly RIP
Outstanding! Where on Earth would you find 22 idiots bold enough to give this the thumbs down? I would suggest not one of those 22 have ever played a single note in front of anyone. Somewhere in the world there are at least 22 villages looking for their lost idiots and a good place to start looking would be the fools that bothered to go to the effort of not liking this. What the fuck have we come to??
RIP Jack - you are the man!!!
You sure there's not just one village missing 22 idiots?
Fuck me! Now there are 100 of them!
"I'm So Glad".....they decided to do these shows in 2005 at Royal Albert Hall in London.....and from the smiles on their faces they were fairly happy too.....sounds incredible.....extended standing ovation as they come on stage.....its for the respect that they command concert after concert after concert....
Ich bin so Glücklich wenn ich Cream höre.
Listening this show for many years. Still gold, one of the best concert I've ever heard.
Fantastic moment when all those people are standing and applauding! Just look at Jack Bruce’s smile as he looks over at Clapton as if to say, yeah “We’ve still go it!”
So sad to see first Jack and now Ginger leaves us. Thanks for all the great times and brilliant music. You gave me a lifetime of memories.
Nice to see young kids getting to hear great music.
i dont think i ever heard a bad cream song! great stuff !! all of it every album every recorded show every bootleg LOVE THE CREAM
Two awful Cream songs I can think of are Anyone for Tennis, and Wrapping Paper. But still, Cream is my favorite rock band ever.
Thank you for posting Cream; the best rock group ever. Listen to the music...do you hear the magic?
I'm so glad!! We had CREAM!! Thank you guys for so much good music and memories!! Out of everything Eric Clapton did, cream was favorite!! Those three together were like three peas in a pod!! Perfect, and meant to be!!
When these great musicians slowly go we will be left with nothing. Sleep well JB
I think the most amazing about these three is that they're all doing their own weird stuff almost like playing different songs but somehow the whole thing it's not only coherent but it's sounds amazing. Pure musical magic.
Huh? It's called great music. Doing one thing...
They were known for the jamming back in the days. They would just take off.
lol, im hip
So nice to hear you back together 1❤😊❤❤❤❤❤
Oh THANK YOU you guys for doing this! You were the best in 1968 and you are still. Thank you Eric, thank you Ginger, and thank you and rest in peace Jack Bruce. You were good. Really really good.
i'm glad that you can still see and hear genius
Blessed are the people who were able to attend this concert. Epic.
Jack bruce, saw him play live, no one is better
IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS FOLKS, ENJOY THE RIDE
So glad I was alive to see this. RIP Jack you were an amazing musician!
I'm so glad!!!!
I'm so glad they came together for this jam.
I'm 60 now but I remember the first time I heard them live on "Wheels..." Jack Bruce was and is my musical hero for so many reasons. I learned to play Train Time when I was a kid now I play bass. There is so much going on by these three. I'm so glad when I can keep up...sort of!
Not many musicians could ever hold their own in a band and on stage with Eric and Ginger, but Jack Bruce shined. One of rock and roll's pioneers.
I'm So Glad to hear this for the 50th x over 50+ years !!!
they used to say cream was like 3 musicians soloing at once - the groove is so deep during that solo it's amazing; jack bruce is playing double stops like the whole time, ginger keeps changing the beat, it's just amazing.
One of the best bands of the 60's and they sounded great .
om so glad I'm alive to hear this again
Ditto.
Always!

This epic number hit me softly,
yet extremely way deep inside my soul !
Wow I feel like I am 16 again listening to some best music ever created😊
I'm so glad I did watch this.
Cream is the essential rock. I became musically "aware" in the '60's and Cream was one of my loves..
This is simply wonderful! theeshrimpking Thank you!
I remember listening to this song in Nam in 69 on LZ English on a friends reel to reel player. God it made us feel so good. Don't know why but I sure remember smiling whenever this played. Thanks
tHEY SOUND COMPLETE EVEN WHEN THEY ARE TUNING UP!!!!! sUPERB, WISH I HAD BEEN THERE

Yeah, another sad day for rock music. RIP Ginger
that' s free blues inventions FABULOUS ! Thank you so much !!!!!

Its the coming of death that will produce sum of the best blues there is
Hope you guys had fun
Watching Clapton wait for Ginger Baker to adjust his earpiece then seeing Ginger give the nod back to Eric to start the show gave me shivers up my spine the first time I saw it.
RIP Jack. RIP Ginger. Thanks for all the pleasure you've given us.
Just watched Beware of Baker here. What an eye opener that was . A must see for all music fans not just Cream fans
Steve Kays Superb documentary!
sooo glad
Baker is unique he moves the music. no matter what their chops the other so called greats just stand there and pound!
I think it's cause he's trained as a Jazz drummer. Jazz drummers are used to directing the music. Check out Elvin Jones, Art Blakey or Max Roach.
One of the greatest bands ever. 3 of the greatest musicians ever. "I am so Glad" we were able to see and hear what stands the test of time.
this just flows, the music is so alive, and we're along for the ride. Feels so good.
For the concert as a whole: I know that they each had been playing their instruments for over 40 years at this point but still they make it look so damn easy when it's difficult
Don't you just love the nod Jack gives Eric at the end. Wonderful stuff.

Listen 5 times- First time to all
Next-Clapton
Next Jack
Next Ginger
Next All

Fun when old Friends get back together and play. Good to see.
Great singing and playing!

Wow so Awesome Glad Cream got to Do This for the Blues Rock world one more Time yeh
I cant believe it has been five years since my dear friend, Jack Bruce, left us. Now Ginger is gone too, but their music is forever.

RIP Ginger now, as well. Both men creating jams for the gods up there.
