1. I cant read and I can't write

my whole life has been one big fight.
Did Albert King write that one?

2. He did it, but didn't write it

was just perfect.
Ginger Baker is sooo talented

5. In about 2/3 of the songs Cream did

Clapton was a clingon.Great Guitar work but Bruce made so much possible...

6. Nah, Clapton was an integral part...

of 3 very super talented guys. But a band made up of a Brit, as Scot, and an Irishmen is doomed from the start.

7. maybe I stated that in a confusing way

Yeah Clapton was necessary but as I said Bruce made a big difference in what got played and how it sounded.

9. In his own words "to paraphrase"

was to have as many discussions between foot and hand as percussively possible ala Art Blakeley. But may of Creams most iconic tunes, like white room (originally in4/4 time, later in5/4 time) were presented by Baker, and he laughed them off, saying no no no.... you have set it to unorthodox timing to pit each musician and each solo against each other in combat.

10. +1!

8. Thanks Albert,

If it wasn't for bad luck: Summuh 'uch would 'ave no luck at all. Story of my life. With no thanks to Cream.
