Cream
Live Performance of Rollin' and Tumblin' by Cream at Fillmore West
Before the live recording of 'Rollin' and Tumblin'' at the Fillmore West in November 1967, Cream had recently released their groundbreaking album 'Disraeli Gears' in November 1967, which is often credited with boosting their popularity in the psychedelic rock scene. This album featured iconic tracks like 'Sunshine of Your Love' and showcased their innovative blend of blues and rock. The recording captures a moment of Cream's electric stage presence around this time, a period during which they were known for their improvisational performances and the dazzling musicianship of Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, and Ginger Baker. Interestingly, 'Rollin' and Tumblin'' is a classic blues cover, and in this performance, you can really feel the band's effortless synergy and the way they electrified the crowed; it was a thrilling time for both the band and their fans.
