1566 - Cream White Room 1968
"White Room" is a psychedelic rock song by British music group Cream, written by bassist Jack Bruce and poet Pete Brown. Drummer Ginger Baker claims to have added the distinctive 5/4 opening to what had been a 4/4 composition. It originally appeared on the US release of their double album "Wheels of Fire".
Jack Bruce sang and played bass on the song, Eric Clapton played overdubbed guitars, Ginger Baker played drums and a timpani, and Felix Pappalardi – the group's producer – contributed by playing violas. Clapton played his guitar through a wah-wah pedal to achieve a "talking-effect".

1322 - Cream Crossroads 1968
Cream were a 1960s British rock supergroup consisting of bassist/vocalist Jack Bruce, guitarist/vocalist Eric Clapton, and drummer Ginger Baker. Their sound was characterised by a hybrid of blues rock, hard rock and psychedelic rock, combining the psychedelia-themed lyrics, Eric Clapton's blues guitar playing and vocals, Jack Bruce's voice and prominent bass playing and Ginger Baker's jazz-influenced drumming.
Cream's music included songs based on traditional blues such as "Crossroads".
Cream's version is a compilation of parts of 2 Robert Johnson songs - "Crossroads Blues" and "Traveling Riverside Blues".
Inside the gatefold of the 2-disk LP "Wheels Of Fire", the song listings for sides 3 (including "Crossroads") and 4 are misleadingly subheaded, "Live at the Fillmore." Same with disk 2 of the 2-CD versions. "Crossroads" was recorded at the Winterland Ballroom, also in San Francisco. Just one of the 4 live songs on these 2 LP sides, "Toad," was actually recorded at the Fillmore, but the Fillmore name had a lot more marketing appeal. "Crossroads" was recorded at Winterland on March 10, 1968, a Sunday, during the first of the 2 Cream shows that night. "Crossroads" immediately followed "Spoonful" in the performance, whereas on the album, "Crossroads" comes right before "Spoonful."
