I'm not much for music documentaries but the way the evolution of Cream songs was pretty incredible and how Eric Clapton went on to make so much more great music. A must for Clapton and Cream fans!

Movie Reviews

Very Insightful DVD
Eric | Texas | 04/05/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I'm sure most of the people who are reading this are familiar with the Classic Albums series. I knew what to expect before watching it but I was pleasantly suprised. The information on the history of Cream and how they progressed with Disraeli Gears in the studio was great. All of the major players (that were still alive) were interviewed. The footage that was available was amazing. The only piece that I hadn't seen was of the song "We're Going Wrong". It was live and in black and white. The band was pretty intense. Bruce's vocals were great as always, Baker was a colossus, but it was Clapton who really impressed me. He was playing like a madman and was looking intense. I recommend this DVD to any fan of Cream. It is a great companion DVD for anyone who bought the reunion show."
Muscular & Funky....Cream's Masterpiece

"Of all the video products out on Cream, this is by far the best. The music from this all-time classic album is 5+ stars. Once you view this, you get a whole new perspective on the album and its individual songs (much like other "Classic Album" series DVD's). I now enjoy my CD of this landmark album that much more after listening to the story behind songs such as "We're Going Wrong", "World of Pain" and "SWLABR" ("she was like a bearded rainbow"). It was primarily the songs that were not as famous that amazed me on this program. Most of the primary players that were involved in the making of this album are fortunately still alive and on hand to discuss their memories (including the talented artist that created the famous album cover). Eric's introduction to the "wah-wah" petal helped make "Tales of Brave Ulysses" a favorite back in 1967. It was also interesting to hear about some of their influential peers (Clapton mentions "The Loving Spoonful" as one). They have pulled together some great classic black & white and color footage on this DVD. The bonus track for "Tales of Brave Ulysses" is an incredible fully restored color vintage performance!

Audio: 4.5 stars
Video: 5 stars (new footage); 3-3.5 stars (old footage)
Bonus features: 5 Stars

If you enjoy Cream, late 60's rock or any of the "Classic Album" DVD's you won't go wrong. Well priced too!"
If you're not a fan, this will make you one!

"This is by far the best vintage Cream video, and probably the best of the Classic Album series.
The story behind the making of the record and the band at that time is excellent material and fun stuff to know. With info about the recording of each song on Disreali Gears, this DVD gives us an insight into the mysterious and unknown side of the band that made such great music among all of the hype and media attention.
The original footage of the band is priceless. Cream video is very rare, although there seems to be a pile of it hidden somewhere.
As a bonus, the video of the bandmembers doing the old songs now is just another treat.
This is mezmerizing to watch and long overdue."
