Clapton is rather modest and very dedicated to his

I don't know how true this is, but back in the day, I knew a studio
engineer who did some mixing on one of the Cream albums. Apparently,
according to his story anyway, the only one in the session on altitude
restriction was Clapton - stone cold sober.
He also told me the story of Baker being so stoned he couldn't stand
up, but when they put him in front of his drums, he played it straight
through, then fell off the stool unconscious. :)
What ever happened to Jack Bruce anyway?
Cream did a reunion concert last year (IIRC) at Royal Albert Hall.
And it was a pretty wretched performance. They may as well have phoned it
in from home. Devoid of inspiration. I saw the performance on PBS, then
received the DVD as a Christmas gift. Still haven't bothered to take the
shrink wrap off the DVD.
