Agree with Surfgod and Judy, Bruce was the best vocalist in the group; his energy was palpable, Clapton was far more a complementary voice rather than a lead singer. Last time I saw and heard them in concert was 1968 at Olympia Stadium in Detroit; I'm just amazed Baker is still alive, given how he looked then!
Cream at Madison Square Garden
Did anybody happen to see this show? I see the Royal Albert Hall shows will be released on a DVD by Rhino Records.\ This is the Amazon link; a CD will also be available.

Will be interesting to see what kind of role Clapton assumes since he was, basically, a guitar player (and always has been in my book; ie, lousy song writer and mediocre vocalist). A great guitar player but a guitar player nonetheless.
