(3 Customer Reviews)
When drummer Ginger Baker decided to form his own band, he reached out to the cream of British musicians, and recruited guitarist Eric Clapton and his rhythm mate from the Alexis Korner and Graham Bond bands, bassist Jack Bruce. Cream ushered in a formidable new wave of electric blues bands, including the Jimi Hendrix Experience and Led Zeppelin. Among the converts was a 13-year old Irish guitarist named Gary Moore, who saw Cream in Belfast and went on to form Thin Lizzy with Phil Lynott.
BBM's AROUND THE NEXT DREAM is the culmination of Moore's boyhood dream to play in a blues band like Cream. With his muscular Les Paul timbre and dancing attack, Moore invokes the spirit of Eric Clapton and all the great British blues players of the '60s, to particular effect on the jump blues workout "Wonder Why" and the ferocious variations of "Why Does Love Have To Go Wrong" (which echoes the Bruce-Baker groove on "We're Going Wrong").
Needless to say, echoes of Cream (and the bassist's esteemed solo albums) set the overall tone, in Bruce's dramatic vocal leaps ...

Around The Next Dream Music Review Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars)    List All Reviews AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! Gary Moore, Baker, Bruce, there is none better, better than the Clapton stuff, Gary Moore is a much better guitarist, cleaner, hits every note with a fiery intensity Clapton could never do. Gary moore is the quintessential guitar player, he can do it all and then some, if youve never heard this guy play, buy some of his cds, you wont be disappointed. This cd is absolutely awesome, brings back the Disraeli gears sound but better with Moore on the axe! believe it, all because Clapton is more recognized is no reason to assume hes better because hes more popular in the states. Gary Moore is a much better guitar player, and all around musician. This BBM album is great, buy it if your a Cream fan or just love killer guitar work and the classic Cream sound!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree with the Wheels of fire mention as well!!!!!!!!!1 Submitted by Rusty (TINLEY PARK, IL)  Was This Review Helpful? Yes No 2 of 2 found this helpful.
