^ I guess there's not a lot to say because there's not a lot progressive about Cream's music (and as pointed out even less about Clapton solo.)

I agree so either send this thread to "just for fun" for a laugh or two or close it.

I already moved this to General Music Discussions and would rather not move it again unless I feel it's somehow necessary to the integrity of the site. If someone else want to, fine, but I suspect this topic will just fall of the page anyway. It was fun to have such quick conversation before. I couldn't keep up with it, but was on my iPad which made it even harder and by the time I got in with response there would be several messages posted in the meantime. I wish there was more humour, not less across this site, I sometimes think. This board is one of the most serious ones I've belonged to. If one wants to get things back on track, one can always try to post things about the topic at hand, respond to posts that are on topic that one finds interesting and share one;s own insights. Writing something scintillating on topic or controversial can work. ;) I had hoped this might turn into a general Cream appreciation thread. And by the way, if we add Cream, we might just have to add Korn (creamed corn or garmonbozia as it exists in the Twin Peaks universe). Oh gosh, I was just looking at images and came across this (too bad I suggested avoiding the politics thing, I would have loved to embed it): https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DPVGiJGVoAAijsB.jpg A little bit of me would like to see Cream in the archives, but it's all part of my master plan to get The Shagg's Philosophy of the World in PA. Funnily enough, the more I listen to Cream these days, the less I appreciate it and the less progressive it seems, and I used to love this band. The blues Spoonful live was my favourite. For a bluesy jammy band, I'd sooner have the Grateful Dead in PA (and I don't really support that). I think there is some case for inclusion, especially due to personnel already in PA, but there's a ton of stuff I'd sooner see in that has a psych and prog relation. |

Grateful Dead is a worthier candidate than Cream. At least under prog-related.
Even Toto is worthier than Cream, obviously under prog-related.

Well of course but experimental and prog are two totally different attributes of music. Some of my favorite music is BOTH prog and experimental but this is prog archives not experimental archives :D |

And C.A. Quintet's Trip Thru Hell from 1969 (not in PA that I could find) is more progressive, experimental and interesting to these ears than Cream. Maybe I'll check and see if it's been suggested. And maybe we could add Serge Gainsbourg for Histoire de Melody Nelson and Cannabis. ;) Another I've wanted to formally propose is Matt Berry, and The Rutles for the non-existent "Related to Prog-Related" category.

^ I love C.A. Quintet's Trip Thru Hell! Haven't heard it in a while but still a personal psych fave from the 60s

I recall that I once suggested Pet Sounds for proto prog and Dean went balistic, and the Dark Elf called it a surf music album, even though none of the songs were about surfing or Woodies. So PA had changed for the better, in that regard. I wish Cristi would lighten up a little, but overall it's gotten less serious than it used to be, thank God.

At least Jack Bruce is in, as he should be.

If you put the Pet Sounds album close to your ear, you can hear the waves.

yes and no.. but both far more progressive than much of the schlock that passes for fusion on this site IMO.
the Allmans were more fully realized in what they attempted to do than Cream I would say... the world .. and this site.. are full of fusion bands playing jazz in the rock vernacular Cream.. and their direct followers.. the Allmans were one of the very few fusion bands to play rock in the jazz vernacular. |

Hi, I really do not like "cream" in my morning drink. Maybe a little milk, but in general no. As for that band, it was fun to listen to while it lasted, but "progressive"? Shiver me timbers ... are we that bored that we have to think that everything out there is "progressive"? Get ... I wanna vote for The Cowsills now since I can't vote for The Grateful Dead.

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!
