You're right. The album is a cosmic masterpiece. It goes in crazy directions, exploring the unknown, but it somehow never loses the listener. Each song, each melody, and every solo tells a story. The compositions were truly great. I am of the opinion that this lineup of RTF were the tightest band of all time. The four of them were so in sync with each other, it's almost like they were one person playing all the instruments, but at the same time each of them brings such a unique identity to the music.

Special time.. special musicians... music had a different sense of spirit and adventure in those days. Some of it worked and some of it didn't. But, and maybe I'm biased cuz I came of age musically at that time, there was a different kind of honesty searching for new sounds and approaches that were relevant. Cats still seemed to want to play for beauty and craft and uplift, not just for money. Maybe I'm being romantic but... "Romantic Warrior," in that live rendition, is a jazz/musical classic. Its just as relevant as Miles' "So What," or many of the other straight ahead jazz classics that are considered canon for today.

Man I agree. One can hear things in Cream's Live shows that point the way to The Mahavishnu Orchestra in particular. John's solos contain little bits of Clapton (when driven along by Jack and Ginger certainly)...and Bruce was brought into Tony Williams Lifetime...

They are Absolutely Nailing it.. And Romantic Warrior is One of Their Very Best (Tho All Their Albums are Masterpieces) But I Think When They Recorded Romantic Warrior they Were Completely in Their Zone.. Rest in Power Chick 💖💖

I was the chief music critic at my college paper at University of Vermont. The band did a small press conference which I covered. My best friend was visiting from NJ and was tripping. Yup, it was '76. He asked Stanley if the pre-show KFC fried chicken meal was to lube up his fingers for his bass playing later....
