Part 1 also has six tracks by Cream from their 1968 Los Angeles concert on the Goodbye tour. The first disc ends with the first three tracks from the G?teborg concert. This was an early Blind Faith concert, shortly after Hyde Park but before the group's debut in America at Madison Square Garden. Still, it finds the band in fine form. In fact, the history of Blind Faith indicates this may have been at or near the group's peak live, since the performances degenerated as the tour reached the States. Once in America, the group found audiences wanted Cream and Traffic favorites, and the members, particurlarly Eric Clapton, became increasingly disenchanted. Clapton, in fact, became enamored with the opening act, Delaney and Bonnie. Midway through the tour, Clapton would start to play with Delaney and Bonnie during their set. By the way, the regular lead guitarist for Delaney and Bonnie at the time was Dave Mason. The sound here is good to very good with the guitar mixed high, which indicates it is probably an audience tape set up near Clapton's amp. The drums suffer a bit because of that and, at times, the mix gets a bit murky. On Part 1, "Well All Right" has a nice Winwood keyboard solo with solid backing from Clapton's rhythm part, in which he combines partial riffs off his chords. The vocal on "Sleeping In The Ground" is vintage Winwood, and Clapton's solo demonstrates forceful blues playing. "Sea Of Joy" is also quite good. The high mix on the guitar becomes fascinating after a while as you listen to all Clapton's parts closely. His playing is outstanding as he switches from his backing to lead parts seamlessly. Clapton's solo on "Sea Of Joy" demonstrates this as he burns on his lead and then alternates between the main riff and the rhythm part of the verse and lead fills as he carries the tune to its conclusion. The performance continues in the same vein on Part 2, with the electric "Can't Find My Way Home," "In The Presence Of The Lord," and "Had To Cry Today" (with Winwood on keyboards, not guitar as in the studio), the highlights. The disc is definitely recommended. If it falls a little short sonically, it makes up for it as an historic document of the short-lived band. The Cream tracks on Part 1 are all available on legitimate releases with the exception of "Crossroads" and "White Room." Grade: B+ See SP 15-03 and 15-10 and SP 16-07.
