Album Number Two Hundred Eighty One “Wheels of Fire” is the third album by the British rock band Cream. It was released in the US in June 1968 as a two-disc vinyl LP, with one disc recorded in the studio and the other recorded live. It was released in the UK on August 9. It reached number three in the United Kingdom and number one in the United States, Canada and Australia, becoming the world's first platinum-selling double album. My copy is a gatefold on #atcorecords - SD 2-700 (the Gold Record Award is actually stuck on the album cover) The band's drummer #GingerBaker co-wrote three songs for the album with pianist #miketaylor. Bassist #jackbruce co-wrote four songs with poet #petebrown. Guitarist #ericclapton contributed to the album by choosing two blues songs to cover. For the second disc, #FelixPappalardi chose "Traintime" because it featured Jack Bruce's singing and harmonica playing, and "Toad" because it featured Ginger Baker's lengthy drum solo, while "Spoonful" and "Crossroads" were used to showcase Eric Clapton's guitar playing. #rockandroll #thesixties #bluesrock #psychedelicrock #hardrock https://www.instagram.com/p/CaPwnT1ur_j/?utm_medium=tumblr

A Brief History of Album Covers - 2017. Cream, “Disraeli Gears” 1967. One of the greatest masterpieces of late-60s psychedelic artwork, #disraeligears reinvented Cream the blues rockers as Cream the psychedelic visionaries. #LSD was a large part of the album's musical gestation, and that spilled out on to the album sleeve, which sees #gingerbaker , #jackbruce and #ericclapton almost entirely swamped by psychedelic swirls and blobs, with a large, winged 'CREAM' threatening to take flight, and take the record sleeve with it.The album's title is crammed in among the psychedelic imagery, almost looking like an afterthought, The artwork was designed by Australian psychedelic artist #martinsharp , who had provided Eric Clapton with the lyrics to the album track '#talesofbraveulysses '' on their first meeting. #rock and roll #psychedelicrock #sixtiesmusic #creamtheband https://www.instagram.com/p/CWXO2OZLjae/?utm_medium=tumblr
