cream to tour again (briefly)
It has been announced that Cream, the legendary 70's rock outfit that split at the height of their fame, are to reform for a handful of gigs. Cream was a ground-breaking act with the headline talent of Eric Clapton, created a sound that was dubbed as 'heavy'. Cream are considered a pioneer band of the Hard Rock genre. Playing their last show together in 1968, the band fell apart over personality and 'ego' conflicts, of which the scars have run deep. Since this time, the band has played only once together at the Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame in 1993, where they were inducted.
I am interested to see how this all goes. I am sure that there will be a frenzy for show tickets. These will be held at the Royal Albert Hall in London. No doubt there will be a little more 'production engineering' than the shows in the 70's, and hope that these gigs are recorded to DVD so the experience can be shared here in our lounge rooms too.
On a side note, Eric Clapton is planning on releasing a new CD/DVD in December entitled "Sessions for Robert J"
