Long time since I posted a Cream album. The original LP:s they issued during their short existence are getting quite rare and seldom show up at reasonable prices, so the bargains you can find in the used bins today are mostly collections of various quality. Thought the UK vegitable sleeve "Best Of..." was ok, though a little dull when it came to track choice (see earlier post). That was made after a US original and a couple of years ago after losing it in a trade decided to replace it with a US first press...which showed to be harder than I imagined and instead ended up with this French. Using the same tapes as US and UK, so the compiling still kind of dull, but with a very nice blue front sleeve and absolutely smashing audio. As I don't have the UK anymore and never heard a US I can't compare, but doubt any of them can sound much better. I hear big and clear with top separation, which together with the alternate sleeve design should make it a collectible item by itself, or at least a very good alternative to the more known variations. First press had label as shown here, heavy vinyl and laminated flip/back cover. (CÄRÄ*) (MFÄX*)
