Great Unknown Songs #4 – Cream I'm So Glad

The first supergroup in rock history, Cream, composed by Jack Bruce (Bass and vocals), Ginger Baker (Drums) and Eric Clapton (Guitar and vocals), made just 4 albums which changed the course of rock and roll in the coming years and until today is an influence to musicians around the world.

In the middle of so many great songs like “Sunshine Of Your Love”, “White Room” and “Strange Brew”, many great songs were overshadowed. One of them is “I’m So Glad”, from the album Fresh Cream (1966), a Delta blues-style song originally recorded by american musician Skip James in 1931. Cream updated the song, using a blues rock arrangement.

Rafael Polcaro: I'm a Brazilian journalist who always loved Classic Rock and Heavy Metal music. That passion inspired me to create Rock and Roll Garage over 6 years ago. Music has always been a part of my life, helping me through tough times and being a support to celebrate the good ones. When I became a journalist, I knew I wanted to write about my passions. After graduating in journalism from the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais, I pursued a postgraduate degree in digital communication at the same institution. The studies and experience in the field helped me improve the website and always bring the best of classic rock to the world! MTB: 0021377/MG
