Description
Original UK MONO pressing on the REACTION label. This one is in STUNNING condition!!! The sleeve and the record are in NEAR MINT condition!!! VERY solid MONO PRESSING. No reserve price.
Fresh Cream was Cream's debut and the first of their three consecutive fantastic albums made while they were together. Although this is clearly their best blues statement with covers of Willie Dixon's "Spoonful" and the oft-covered Muddy Waters classic "Rollin' And Tumblin'", the album also points to the excellent songwriting of Disraeli Gears and the extensive jamming featured on Wheels Of Fire.
Still working out their style, Cream started off with the rather off-color single of "Wrapping Paper" and "The Coffee Song" and soon moved into more intriguing and innovative versions of blues standards with "Four Until Late," "Cat's Squirrel," "Rollin' and Tumblin'," and the fantastic reinterpretation of Willie Dixon's "Spoonful." Stylish original compositions are also highlights, "Sweet Wine" standing out as a bluesy psychedelic treat that would foreshadow things to come. Then, there's the mellow sweetness of "I Feel Free," "Sleepy Time Time," and "Dreaming," as well as the upbeat blues of "N.S.U." and "I'm So Glad." Ginger Baker also adds his signature drum solo, "Toad." Simply a stunning debut from one of the best bands from the '60s. Highly recommended.
