Cream performs "We're Going Wrong" @ Winterland---unusual sightings in accompanying photo collage

[Willie G. Moseley]

Lotta times when a song is available on Youtube or a similar site, there's just a photo of an album cover or other some illustration on display while the song plays. This recording of Cream at Winterland has fair fidelity, but Bruce really wails on this. It's a "tom-tom-centric" song, an of course Ginger Baker is as precise as an atomic clock.

But there's also a parade of Clapton photos throughout his entire tenure with Ceram, including some that I've not seen before.

When Clapton played a one-pickup Firebird late in the band's history, he was usually seen with a pageboy hair style; he had shorn his past-the-shoulders shag and had shaved off his walrus mustache. But several photos here show him playing the Firebird before he got the haircut. I'd never seen that, um, combination before.

But the real kick is found at the 3:35 mark---Cream is shown performing in font of a wall of Kustom tuck-and-roll amps and speaker cabs. Not sure if the band's plugged into 'em but it'll cause every longtime Cream fan to do a double take......like I did. Enjoy.
