Just downloaded these, the last night's recording is superb. Clearly in a huge auditorium seat position is all important and I would say that it was recorded dead in front of the PA speakers and is very clear with good sound balance. Remember, Eric Clapton 2005 is not Eric Clapton 1968, but that wah in Tales of Brave Ulysees still send shivers down my spine! It seems that there will be no more from Cream - a good pension for Jack and Ginger I think.

There has been a great deal of critisism of these concerts over on the Cream Reunion site, but that's nothing new. Pictures show that Eric & Jack had mini Marshall stacks on top of their amps!

I'vw just listened to the whole of 26/10/05 and it's pretty good. Listen through headphones and you're there in the Madison Square Garden.

I'm glad it was good. I recorded the 2 hour mp3 file on to minidiscs last night and played it very loud in my car driving to and from work today. The guy recording it must have been very near the front as the sound is near and much louder than audience noise.

I was there on Tues, hard to believe it actually happened as there is so little buzz on all the guitar forums. I would have gone to the UK show if I could have gotten tickets. I dont know why so few people went, I got my ticket on ebay a few days before at face value.

On Tues Eric played AIR WAH for the 1st 3/4 of white room solo :-(

I listened/downloaded the 10-26 gig, It's OK, but i didn't like his wah tone, or his tone in general, nothing like old Cream.  BUt still good/ worth listening,... :)
