Blind Faith were an English rock supergroup that consisted of Steve Winwood, Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker, and Ric Grech. They followed the success of each of the member's former bands, including Clapton and Baker's former group Cream and Winwood's former group Traffic, but they split after a few months, producing only one album and a three-month summer tour.
The group originated with informal jamming by Clapton and Winwood in early 1969 following the break-ups of Cream and Traffic. Baker joined them in rehearsals and they decided to form a group. Grech joined as the fourth member from the band Family in May, and they began recording their eponymous debut album. It drew controversy for featuring a photograph of a topless 11-year-old girl on the front cover, and it was issued with a different cover in the United States. The first Blind Faith concert was on 7 June in front of an estimated 100,000 fans in Hyde Park, London, but they felt that they had not rehearsed enough and were unprepared. They subsequently played concerts in Scandinavia and the US, but the lack of material in the live set led them to play old Cream and Traffic songs which pleased the audience but disillusioned the band. Clapton became increasingly isolated during the tour, preferring to spend time with support act Delaney & Bonnie, and Blind Faith disbanded immediately after their last performance.
ALL RECORDS HAVE NOT BEEN TESTED ON EQUIPMENT. ONLY A CAREFUL VISUAL EVALUATION WAS DONE.
All items are original, unless stated otherwise. I stand behind all my merchandise as being as stated. I try to be as accurate and precise as possible when describing items but this is not an exact science, we are all human. I usually will under grade slightly. So please read descriptions carefully and email me if you have further questions. Here is my system: 1.NEW/MINT: means exactly that, no flaws. 2.AS NEW/NEAR MINT: means there may be very some tiny flaw such as some very minor rubbing. 3.FINE: means there may be slightly more imperfections, such as some wear or a tiny crease, etc. 4.VERY GOOD: means there are flaws, such as pinholes, small closed tears, spots, rubbing, creases, chips, staining, discoloration, etc. All of which would be minor. 5.GOOD: means that there are significant problems. Holes, tears, pieces missing, smoke damage, mold, insects, dents, cracks, parts missing, incomplete items, water staining or damage, sunning, loose pages, bindings, covers. All of which would lean more toward the extreme side. Most items look better than the photo allows for. RETURN POLICY: All items are returnable within seven days of receipt. I must be contacted first before an item can be returned and refund made. Only the purchase price is refundable. I pay return postage only.
I DO COMBINE SHIPPING, SO PLEASE WAIT UNTIL I SEND YOU A COMBINED SHIPPING INVOICE BEFORE PAYMENT IS MADE. THANKS!
