Doc´s Vinyl Box Vol. 3:
CREAM, London, Klooks Kleek Club, November 15, 1966
off Super rare Dutch Vinyl Boot "A Group called CREAM" on Viktorie Label!
This show is, as far as I know, the earliest CREAM concert recording!
It includes more spontaneous playing of short versions of the common CREAM songs than the later shows, plus a rare rendition of "Lawdy Mama"!
The recording sounds great for it´s time, and the show is probably one of the hottest CREAM shows ever!
The Viktorie Boot recording is in a real nice "Electronic Stereo" mix also different from the repressing, which used only one channel from the original issue
Although this show is credited to be recorded in Rotterdam, NL, it is well known in the CREAM scene that it is originally recorded in London at the Klooks Kleek Club Nov 1966!
The vinyl is in good shape , a near mint cpoy, but the vinyl has a few very small "holes" in it´s surface, but the overall sound is really great!
Tracklist:
01 Hey Lawdy Mama
02 Sleepy Time Time
03 Crossroads
04 Stepping Out
05 Sweet Wine
06 Meet Me In The Bottom
07 N.S.U.
Time: 32:20

Oooohhh yess..
He'd just left Mayall and still had the fire..before Cream became a self induldent exercise in boredom..that's not my original sentiment..i believe it's Clapton's, but one i echo as a fellow player for nigh 40 years meself...
No such prob at Klooks Kleek tho (and hey, worked OK there for Mayall, and Alvin too...!!!)
Thanx...!
