Second Coming of Cream?



Last night, Cream picked up where they left off 36 years ago, The Royal Albert Hall. Around for only two years, this seminal trio shook up the rock genre with hits including "I Feel Free" and "White Room." Aside from the Yardbirds (which also contained Clapton at one point), they pretty much invented the template of the "supergroup," which is still used by bands like Audioslave and Velvet Revolver.
