Too much of a junior encarcerated at a then prison-like, famous ancient British boarding school to have seen Clapton and Baker (and the great bassist and, Jack Bruce Bruce) play in Cream (disbanded in 1968 and left a great album of their last gig, at the Albert Hall, “Goodbye Cream”), but I did get to London’s Hyde Park during a summer weekend the following year and watched Stevie, Eric and Ginger playing for free, as those concerts were then (I saw the Stones in the same park a few weeks later the same summer).

Great talent, Stevie Winwood – he left his musical mark everywhere.
Correction, guys – try this far better 55 minute late-1960s overview and footage of the Blind Faith concert, the one that I had meant to post rather than the one I did above.
Feeling free and never letting the humourless bastards get me down, as ever., PB.
