09 WHEELS OF FIRE CREAM (1968)

Cream’s third LP was released at the apex of their short career, showcasing everything that made them special. It became the world’s first platinumselling double vinyl album, consisting of two sides of new studio recordings and two sides of live recordings. The opening track and hit single Whiteroom is the quintessential Cream power rock sound, with Eric Clapton’s wah solo a highlight of the album. Born Underabadsign and Sittingon Topoftheworld present British Blues at its finest, and the live rendition of Robert Johnson’s Crossroads features arguably Clapton’s greatest guitar solo.
