Best Of Cream 
Compilation
"The sleeve artwork is awful but the songs within make up for it. An excellent collection of songs which provide an enjoyable listen from start to finish. If you want to capture the very best of Cream then look no further."  Reply

"I discovered this album on Youtube one day when I was curious to see what Phoebe Summersquash, drummer for genius Rhode Island indie power pop trio Small Factory, was up to these days. I stumbled upon a song called Phoebe Summersquash by the already defunct Philadelphia band Scary Monster. I love..."  [+]  Reply

"This one was sort of a surprise. I love the early 80's Alice releases like Dada, and then in the mid 80's, Alice's sales started picking back up but was much more in the hair metal vein. The Last Temptation had the feel of his classic 70's stuff, yet some modern things as well. Too bad this came ..."  [+]  Reply

"A great album & their best work, every track is good even the Richard Carpenter vocals on the track Piano Picker. Side 1 (tracks 1-6) is exceptional easy listening laid back music and the final 3 tracks are a brilliant way to close an album, Road Ode is a very underrated song. Karen Carpenter has..."  [+]  Reply
