The Very Best of Cream

Average rating: Stars

Great Intro to Cream

A "Very Best of?" Maybe not. Personally, I'm not a big fan of "Wrapping Paper"...that should've been replaced with something else...maybe "Toad." Every other song is excellent.

As is with all "Best of," "Hits," and "Greatest Hits" collections, there are always selections that are left off that people feel should have been included. But then again, that's the "Best Hits" collections for you.

As far as this "Very Best of" collection goes, it serves as a great intro to the band. I think it's an outstanding compilation. In my case, it was pretty much the only Cream CD in the store. I would highly recommend this to any fans of The Jimi Hendrix Experience, or just anyone that is into rock or the music of the late 60s in general, or if you're just starting to take an interest in Cream.

That said, try to get a hand on their live records (Live Cream Vol. 1 & 2). I don't even know if those made it onto CD, so you might want you shop on eBay. Since Cream was at their best live, I'd recommend the live volumes before the studio albums (of course, be sure to get the studio albums too).

The Very Best of Cream - Cream

One of the greastest

Cream would be one of the best classic rock bands ever. So much talent, amazing lyrics, amazing guitar and vocals what else could you want?...If you like Eric Clapton then heres some of his ealier works.

Cream - The Very Best of Cream

Great

What do you get when you have one of the top 3 guitarists, a top notch singer and bassist, and an excellent drummer? You get Cream one of the all time greatest bands. (in my opinion) Although Sunshine of Your Love and Crossroads are well known, you will find yourself listening to those in addition to almost every other track. "Strange Brew" and "Swlabr" are paticulary good. So don't miss out on this Classic Rock classic.
