Peter Sprague Plays Cream

“Sunshine of Your Love” — probably the second most iconic rock riff right behind the descending chord movement of “Stairway to Heaven.” I learned to play it when I was young and with a surfboard under the other arm I pretty much owned the world at large. Hah!

It’s hard to take over the planet but if you’re fortified with the songs of Cream, world domination by sound is a cinch. Their music is hard hitting, beautiful, and to my ears, just waiting to be reimagined through our jazz and Brazilian influence.

We levitate on the classic “Had To Cry Today,” flat tire wobble on “Born Under a Bad Sign,” astral travel on “Badge,” and do some silent moon gazing on “Can’t Find My Way Home.” And of course we fit in a little “Sunshine of Your Love” to fully illuminate the set.
