Craig Sawyers Posted July 30, 2020 Report Posted July 30, 2020 Cream's first gig in 1966. In some poky club in Manchester. Bruce on left, Baker of course on drums, and an impossibly young looking Clapton on right. And in 2011, Baker in full flight in Toad 4 Quote

ironbut Posted August 11, 2020 Report Posted August 11, 2020 (edited) I've got a Cream booklet that I got at their concert with lots of cool pictures in it but that one is not among the promotional photos in it! Kinda looks like an advert for personal drug choices? Edited August 11, 2020 by ironbut 1 Quote
Craig Sawyers Posted August 11, 2020 Report Posted August 11, 2020 Baker looks like the crazy guy he was. He and Bruce hated each other, to the extent that Baker attacked him with a knife at one point. When, post Cream, Baker went to set up a recording studio and live in Lagos (in Nigeria), Bruce said that the best place for Baker was on another continent to him, but Africa was not far enough. But they were often off their heads on dope. Clapton disappeared for several years into his house and got lost on a cocktail of Class A drugs. Then he got off drugs and turned to alcohol. To the extent he couldn't play and sing, and often just staggered off stage after one mumbled number. It is a wonder he is still alive. Unlike the bass player they brought in for Blind Faith, Ric Grech. After playing bass with a wide selection of bands, he retired at 31 and died at 43 from kidney failure as a result of alcohol abuse. Was lucky enough to see Clapton and Winwood with my son maybe five years ago in Birmingham. They did pretty much everything on Blind Faith's single album, and then some Cream stuff. Factoid - Crosby, Stills and Nash approached Winwood to join the band. But because of other band commitments he turned them down. So instead they approached Neil Young.... 3 Quote
Knuckledragger Posted August 12, 2020 Author Report Posted August 12, 2020 NME acid house issue cover, July 1988. This is real. The fossil of a Kronosaurus. I feel personally attacked here. In the words of the late, great Bill Hicks, there's no fucking joke here. Schrodinger's Miau. #ScottishPeopleTwitter Me this month. 3 Quote
