Cream: Sunshine of Your Love.


"Sunshine of Your Love" is a 1967 song by Cream. It is Cream's only gold-selling single in the United States. It features an amazing electric/bass guitar riff and and famous guitar solo from Eric Clapton. The song was written by Jack Bruce, Pete Brown and Clapton. Cream is the first group to introduce me to "blues rock" and I have been hooked ever since.

Dawn, Cool post, a couple things jump out at me. First Eric and Jack are playing Gibsons. Must be to hard to find a place for your smokes on a Fender P Bass.

Eric is playing a Gibson SG 50 instead of "Blackie" his black Fender "Strat".

I don't know if you know that before Cream,Jack and Ginger played together with Graham Bond.Jack even played upright Bass in the band. Check out some of their stuff on you tube, that rock solid grove of Jack and Ginger did not happen overnight.
