Cream was a band born to the stage, a fact that the band and their record label realized the public fully understood by the number one U.S. chart placement for Wheels of Fire, with its entire live disc, and the number two chart peak for Goodbye, the posthumous release that was dominated by concert recordings…
Those Were the Days is an ambitious four-disc, 63-track box set that divides Cream's career into two halves.
