(“cream” were a 1960s british rock supergroup power trio consisting of bassist/singer “jack bruce”, drummer “ginger baker”, and guitarist/singer “eric clapton”)

(their unique sound was characterized by a hybrid of ‘blues rock’, ‘hard rock’, and ‘psychedelic rock’, combining ‘psychedelia themes’, clapton’s ‘blues guitar playing’, bruce’s ‘powerful, versatile vocals’ and ‘prominent bass playing’, baker’s ‘distinctive, pulsating, jazz-influenced drumming’ and pete brown’s poetic lyrics)

(the group’s third album, wheels of fire (1968), was the world’s first ‘platinum-selling double album’)

(the band is widely regarded as the ‘world’s first successful supergroup)

(in their career, they sold more than 15 million copies of their albums worldwide)

(their music included songs based on ‘traditional blues’ such as “crossroads” and “spoonful”, and ‘modern blues’ such as “born under a bad sign”, as well as more eccentric songs such as “strange brew”, “tales of brave ulysses” and “toad”)

(the band’s biggest hits are “i feel free” (UK #11), “sunshine of your love” (US #5), “white room” (US #6), “crossroads” (US #28), and “badge” (UK #18))

(the band made a significant impact on the popular music of the time, and, along with ‘jimi hendrix’ and other notable ‘guitarists’ and ‘bands’, popularized the use of the ‘wah-wah pedal’)

(they provided a ‘heavy’ yet ‘technically proficient’ musical theme that ‘foreshadowed’ and ‘influenced’ the emergence of british bands such as ‘led zeppelin’, ‘the jeff beck group’, ‘deep purple’, and ‘black sabbath’ in the ‘late 1960s’ and the ‘early 1970s’)

(the band’s ‘live performances’ influenced ‘progressive rock acts’ such as ‘rush’)

(the band was inducted into the ‘rock + roll hall of fame’ in ‘1993’)

(they were included in both rolling stone and VH1’s lists of the “100 greatest artists of ‘all time'”, at #67 and #61 respectively)

(they were also ranked #16 on VH1’s “100 greatest artists of ‘hard rock'”)
