Universal Music Enterprises presents CREAM: 1966 - 1972, which brings together this epic British rock supergroup's six, career-spanning studio and live albums together in a vinyl box set for the very first time. Each LP retains authenticity with original artwork and is pressed on 180-gram, heavyweight audiophile vinyl. All are housed in a structured slipcase box. Download voucher for MP3s of all six albums, included (this is offered by the manufacturer and may or may not have an expiration date) with this boxset. Cream was formed in 1966 and their sound was characterized by a hybrid of blues rock, hard rock and bourgeoning psychedelic rock as performed by Eric Clapton's innovative blues guitar, Jack Bruce's operatic voice and fluid bass playing, and Ginger Baker's jazz-influenced drumming. Cream soon evolved further, creating a trademark approach built around each musician's virtuoso playing. The band's imaginative lyrics were often written by poet Pete Brown. The box set includes the U.K. versions of their four studio albums: Fresh Cream (1966), Disraeli Gears (1967), Wheels of Fire (1968), the posthumously released Goodbye (1969), as well as Live Cream Volume 1 and Live Cream Volume 2. Cream only made two formal studio albums (Fresh Cream and Disraeli Gears). Both Wheels of Fire and Goodbye contain a combination of studio and live material. One of most influential rock bands of their era, and known for such 60's hits such as "Sunshine of Your Love," "White Room" and "Badge," the hugely talented but fractious supergroup disbanded after only two years together in 1969. They have reunited only twice, once to perform at their 1993 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction and again in 2005 for a short series of concerts at London's Royal Albert Hall and New York's Madison Square Garden. Most recently, Cream received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2006.
