The remastered DISRAELI GEARS is also available in its entirety on the 4 disc set THOSE WERE THE DAYS.

Recorded in the U.S. in a three-and-a-half day flurry of inspired activity before the band members' visas expired, DISRAELI GEARS continued to present the legendary, unprecedented rock power-trio acrobatics pioneered by Cream on their debut FRESH CREAM. The acronymic "SWLABR (She Walked Like a Bearded Rainbow)" for instance, featured some of the band's most fiery instrumental interplay. The album, with its eye-catching day-glo cover, was produced by Felix Pappalardi (who went on to co-found the Cream-inspired Mountain) and once again featured collaborations between singer/bassist Jack Bruce and lyric poet Pete Brown. The Top Five hit "Sunshine Of Your Love," however, was written by Brown and Eric Clapton. That iconic riff-rocker, along with the slinky, bluesy "Strange Brew," and the mythographic, wah-wah stomper "Tales of Brave Ulysses" was a staple of rock radio forever after, making DISRAELI GEARS one of the seminal '60s rock albums. Despite the good humor suggested by the jokey a capella reading of "Mother's Lament," however, all was far from peace and love in the Cream camp at the time, as internal and external pressures broke up the band by the end of 1968.

Recorded at Atlantic Studios, New York, New York in May 1967.

Cream: Eric Clapton (guitar, vocals); Jack Bruce (bass, vocals, harmonica); Ginger Baker (drums, vocals).

Personnel: Eric Clapton (vocals, guitar); Jack Bruce (vocals, harmonica, keyboards); Ginger Baker (vocals, drums).

Photographer: Bob Whitaker.

Arranger: Robert Stigwood.Rolling Stone (12/11/03, p.124) - Ranked #112 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "[C]olorful, concise songs..."
Uncut (p.128) - 4 stars out of 5 - "The album was a huge, Top 5 success on both sides of the Atlantic, transforming the shape of rock music, which still draws deeply on its power-trio innovations."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.122) - 3 stars out of 5 - "With its perfect Martin Sharp sleeve and disciplined performances, DISRAELI GEARS was always Cream's best record. It remains so..."

It may not have been heavy metal but it was one of the foreruners of modern rock. It's still a fresh sound even in the 21st century.

5 stars Remarkable
Clapton,Bruce,and Baker shine on this great album. Cream was well known for their ability to play as a unit and each song on this album displays each member's talents. Clapton's guitar roars on "Tales Of Brave Ulysses" and "SWLABR".

Jimi Hendrix Electric Ladyland CD  (1968)

Disraeli Gears album
CD $9.65  4.7 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Principally recorded at the Record Plant, New York, New York in April and May 1968. On ELECTRIC LADYLAND Jimi Hendrix stretched and experimented in the studio, going beyond the power-trio format on what would be his last studio album with the Experience. ELECTRIC LADYLAND was revolutionary in its scope and execution. Using New York City's Record Plant as a gateway to free expression, Hendrix traversed an abstract landscape containing compositions as weird and wonderful as "...And The Gods Made Love" and "1983...(A Merman I Should Turn To Be)." Simultaneously looking forwards and backwards, Hendrix mixed in a song reminiscent of his time on the chitlin' circuit (Earl King's "Come On [Part 1]"), a Bob Dylan favorite ("All Along The Watchtower"), and one of his snappiest singles ("Crosstown Traffic"). Although Hendrix produced and wrote most of ...

Jimi Hendrix Are You Experienced? CD  (1967)

Disraeli Gears CD music
CD $9.55  4.8 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
This 1997 reissue of ARE YOU EXPERIENCED? is a remastered version that restores the original LP's track order and album artwork. ARE YOU EXPERIENCED? was previously reissued in 1993 (MCA 10893) with new cover art and a new 17-track running order that included all the songs on either the U.S. or U.K. versions of the original LP. That version is now out of print, and has been replaced by this one, on the Experience Hendrix label, which features remastered versions of the same 17 songs, this time in the order they appeared on the original American LP, with the extra tracks added to the end (a separate version was simultaneously released in the U.K., featuring the same songs but in the original British track order). The Experience Hendrix label is controlled by Hendrix's family. The 1997 reissue also adds a 24-page booklet with previously-unpublished photos, the original LP liner notes and song lyrics. Recorded in late 1966 and early 1967 at Olympic Studios, London, England. Jimi Hendrix's debut recording was an instant classic, and is as startling today as when it first hit ...

Cream Wheels Of Fire CDs  (1968) Remastered

Disraeli Gears songs
CD $15.09  4.7 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Originally released as a 2-LP set, half live, half studio recordings. When Cream released WHEELS OF FIRE, they had established themselves as the premier blues-rock band due to the success of their first two albums and the extraordinary chemistry between the band's members. As a result of this synergy, Cream also enjoyed a fiery live reputation. This double album represents both sides of Cream's musical personality. The first record is a studio job, where the band mixes originals with covers of Howlin' Wolf ("Sitting on Top of the World") and Albert King ("Born Under a Bad Sign"). The songs written by the band all contain unique touches. "As You Said" finds Jack Bruce swapping his bass for a cello, "Pressed Rat and Warthog" sounds like an English folk tale courtesy of Ginger Baker's clipped recitation and the inclusion of baroque horns, and the classic "White Room" overflows with waves of Eric Clapton's wah-wah-drenched guitar. The second record was recorded over a four-day span at San Francisco's Winterland and Fillmore West. Extended versions of "Toad" and Willie Dixon's "Spoonful" ...

Cream Goodbye CD  (1969) Remastered

Disraeli Gears album
CD $6.55  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
After less than 3 years in existence, and some 15 million albums sold, GOODBYE was Cream's farewell release. Baker, Bruce and Clapton indicated at the time that they were burned out on the concept, the touring, the improvisational "battles," and each other. The live cuts ("I'm So Glad," "Politician" and "Sitting On Top Of The World") are indicative of how the band's concert chemistry had evolved from earlier live recordings (such as those on WHEELS OF FIRE and LIVE CREAM, VOLUMES 1 & 2). But what's most striking about GOODBYE is the charm and craftsmanship of their last studio tracks, indicating that Cream was far from ...

Blind Faith CD  (1969) Remastered

BLIND FAITH was cursed at its very inception by being billed as a supergroup. This was truly a pity, because for all the classic beauty of its only recording, Blind Faith was a band that never had a legitimate opportunity to come together as a performing ensemble. Hyped to the hilt and rushed into a massive, chaotic tour, the band fell apart after its final American concerts when Eric Clapton packed it in to join Delaney & Bonnie's band. BLIND FAITH scored a big hit with its evocative acoustic ballad "Can't Find My Way Home," featuring Winwood's raspy falsetto, Clapton's poignant acoustic guitar, and Baker's pulsing brush work. But then, every song on BLIND FAITH has become an FM radio ...
