After much speculation, the eagerly anticipated
Cream reunion took place May 2nd, 3rd, 5th, and
6th at London's Royal Albert Hall. In what was
one of the must-see events of the
decade,
the legendary trio-Ginger Baker,
Jack Bruce
and Eric Clapton-lit up the 8,000-capacity hall
with such classic material as “Badge,”
“I’m So Glad,” “Crossroads,”
“Sunshine Of Your Love,” and
plenty more
Badge
Eric Clapton/George Harrison
Thinkin' 'bout the times you drove in my car. Thinkin' that I might have drove you too far. And
I'm thinkin' 'bout the love that you laid on my table.
I told you not to wander 'round in the dark. I told you 'bout
the swans, that they live in the park. Then I told you 'bout our kid, now he's married to Mabel.
Yes, I told you
that the light goes up and down. Don't you notice how the wheel goes 'round? And you better pick yourself up from the
ground Before they bring the curtain down, Yes, before they bring the curtain down.
Talkin' 'bout a girl that
looks quite like you. She didn't have the time to wait in the queue. She cried away her life since she fell off the
cradle.
