The band, which was one of the first "", released their only album, , in August. They were stylistically similar to the
bands in which Winwood, Baker, and Clapton had most recently participated,  and . They helped to pioneer the genre of blues/rock fusion.
Formation and early history

The beginnings of Blind Faith date from mid-1968, with the break-up of Cream. In retrospect as the first "super-group," Cream had become a
financial powerhouse, selling millions of records within a few years and raising the group's (and each member's) repertoire to international
popularity. Despite that success, the band was crumbling from within because of frequent animosity between  and ,
with Eric Clapton doing his best to mediate. In addition, Clapton had tired of playing commercially driven blues and hoped to move forward with
a new, experimental, less straitjacketed approach to the genre.

Steve Winwood was facing similar problems in , where he had been the  for three years. Winwood wanted
to experiment with the band's sound by infusing  elements, but left due to his musical differences, instead forming a new band——in
1967. That band split temporarily in 1969, and Winwood started to  with his good friend Clapton in Clapton's basement in , .
Winwood and Clapton had previously collaborated on the "" project.

Clapton was pleased with the jam sessions, but was hesitant to start a serious group. Ginger Baker turned up again one day to sit in with them
in 1969, and the band took near-final form. Clapton questioned letting Baker in the band, because he had promised Jack Bruce that, if they were
to work with one another again, all three of them would play. Moreover, Clapton didn't want to reunite with Cream barely nine weeks after the
break-up, and also didn't want to deal with another "Cream-like" super-stardom situation. Winwood ultimately persuaded Clapton to finalize
Baker's inclusion in the line-up, arguing that Ginger Baker strengthened their musicianship and that it would be hard to find an equally talented
drummer. Baker was a participant in sessions and public appearances

By May 1969, Ric Grech, bassist with , was invited to join them (leaving Family in mid-tour).
