Description:
CREAM was rock's first true 'super group'. Combining the extraordinary talents of ERIC CLAPTON, GINGER BAKER and JACK BRUCE, this power trio became the template for many hard rock acts of the seventies. The band remains a huge influence on the genre even to this day.
Powered by hits such as 'Strange Brew' and 'Sunshine of Your Love', Cream's second album, DISRAELI GEARS, moved the band beyond the blues into hard-driving, psychedelic pop. This was the album that not only broke the group in the United States but also established Clapton as an international superstar.
This addition of Disraeli Gears to the acclaimed Classic Albums series features brand new interviews with Clapton, Baker and Bruce, along with lyricist Pete Brown, Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun, John Mayall and Manfred Mann. Also included on the DVD are acoustic performances, original studio tracks and archival live footage.

1. Strange Brew
2. Sunshine Of Your Love
3. World Of Pain
4. Dance The Night Away
5. Blue Condition
6. Tales Of Brave Ulysses

Rating:  - Those were the days...
This is a fine look at the making of a classic album with the participation of all the living principals. It should satisfy the curiousity of all interested parties.
Players will find the bonus material to be highly instructive. Never wonder how to play those licks properly again!
Rating: - Why Clapton is God & Cream ruled
The Disraeli Gears lp or Buffalo Springfield Again ? I chose Gears, loved Sunshine and the flourescent cover
fit the zeitgeist(was a time a great cover broadcast it's content as the same). Beyond the folky Mother's Lament
it was wonderful to hear three masters explore rock. Too bad producer Felix Pappalardi is gone now.
The details recalled are deliciously presented; loved the flashes of female breasts and vintage pix/film(VH1 edits all, so PC). Have Hendrix's Electric Ladyland ... Read More
Rating:  - Just interviews and almost no performances
I just want to warn anyone who thinks that this DVD contains footage of Cream performing their songs that they perform just one song, "Tales Of Brave Ulysses" -- and you won't find it by watching the movie. You have to click on "Bonus Selections" to find it.
Otherwise, the movie is just interviews with band members and others reminiscing about the songs on the album.
Rating: - An absolute must-have
I can't add to the superlatives which have been justly heaped upon this DVD. I only wish they'd covered Ginger Baker's composition "Blue Condition."
