NO RESERVE! -- INSURANCE PAID COMPLIMENTS OF SELLER -- ATCO Stereo -- CREAM -- DISRAELI GEARS -- Rated 4.5 Stars in AMG --
_____ Cream teamed up with producer Felix Pappalardi for their second album, Disraeli Gears, a move that helped push the power trio toward psychedelia and also helped give the album a thematic coherence missing from the debut. This, of course, means that Disraeli Gears gets further away from the pure blues improvisatory troupe they were intended to be, but it does get them to be who they truly are: a massively innovative power trio. The blues still courses throughout Disraeli Gears — the swirling kaleidoscopic "Strange Brew" is built upon a riff lifted from Albert King — but it's filtered into saturated colors, as it is on "Sunshine of Your Love," or it's slowed down as on the ominous murk of, "Tales of Brave Ulysses." It's a pure psychedelic move that's spurred along by Jack Bruce's flourishing collaboration with Pete Brown. Together, this pair steers this album toward its eccentric British core, for with the fuzzy freak-out "Swlabr," the music hall flourishes of "Dance the Night Away," the swinging "Take It Back," and of course, the schoolboy singalong "Mother's Lament," this is a very British record. This LP became a major hit in America as well, Cream is still a heavy rock trio and Disraeli Gears is a quintessential heavy-psych rock album. Yes, its psychedelic trappings tie it forever to the imagination of the arrangements. But the strength of the compositions and especially the force of the musicianship, make this album transcend its time as well. --The AMG
