The Worst Bands of All Time - Number 9

Jeez Cream suck....Clapton has always left me cold but in Cream he really took the biscuit (custard creams?)... read on




For a band that droned on about being the "Cream" of blooze musicians there has rarely been such a ham fisted plodding bunch of louts. They made Godzilla crushing Tokyo sound like a whisper from your lovers lips such was their "finesse", you only need to compare them with The Jimi Hendrix Experience to see how unrhythmic and awkward they were. Check out the hundreds of colourful trills n fills in Jimi's playing compared to Clapton's droopy barchords and while virtualy every Jimi solo is routed through endless different pedles and pick ups often swapping mid solo, Clapton stolidly stuck to one sound: that of a kazoo being sexualy molested.

Cream invented heavy metal, endless guitar solos, technical expertise over feeling, white men wearing afro's and white musicians stealing songs from black guys and doing them really badly..

Thanks guys!

Saying that I do like the tune "Strange Brew" especially with this videos groovy intro...

  1. Again, you're horribly wrong. Cream was al about the Bruce!
