Cream Fresh Cream 1st Mono Pressing Vinyl LP / VG 
This is a rare copy of supergroup Cream's debut LP 'Fresh Cream'. This an original mono copy on UK based Reaction Records (593001). The sleeve is just in VG condition (arguably G++) with creases and bubbling on the laminated front cover & with medium ring & edgewear. The back is discolured with ringwear & a small seam split (although the sleeve is still strong and intact).  The vinyl is in VG condition with some visible marks on both sides. The album plays in VG condition with some light crackles but no major pops, clicks or skips : ) 
A nice VG copy : ) 
Happy bidding : )

[Track B1 is influenced & taken from the 'catfish blues' work 'Cat Squirrel' by Dr. Isaiah Ross, a renowned 'one man band' artist in the Mississippi delta blues tradition. Ross died in May 1993. ]. 

The band began recording at Rayrik Studios in London's Chalk Farm in the summer of 1966 (from which Wrapping Paper and The Coffee Song resulted).
