MKB	Re: Cream still Cream of the crop I got the Cream 2005 DVD for Christmas, it is fantastic! They don't have the fire of 20 year olds anymore, but the music is SO sweet and listenable. You can really hear the maturity in each of them. Jack's and Ginger's tone was amazing, you could hear everything. Eric's tone was his muddy Strat thing he has been using for the last few years, which could be so much better. But his playing is unquestionably the best he has done in the last 25 years or so. Maybe better than in the original Cream. They seem to have put their disagreements behind and have learned to enjoy each other. You could really see the affection between them on stage, you never saw that with the original Cream.
