IMO,Rock & Roll is to be performed by guys (and gals) in their 20's and 30's.I have no desire to see The Stones Metamucil Tour or the Cream Reunion "brought to you by Depends".

There's a huge difference. I love the Stones old stuff before MIck Taylor left, but would never waste my time seeing them live with a sixty year old Mick Jagger running around like a 25 year old studly fag aping Tina Turner.

But Cream always played it straight. No prancing or eroticism. The three old guys, Clapton-Bruce-Baker, can get up on stage and play their songs just as well and just as credibly as they did three and one half decades ago

I watched some of the DVD last night. The sound is awesome, its shot in HD....I'm not a huge Cream fan so I can't give an informed review, some songs were great, some pretty boring...I'm glad I have the DVD though.....

But Cream always played it straight.

Ginger Baker alluded to that in the interview on the DVD.... said that they were musicians, and went out to play music, not jump around and run all over the place.

I decided to watch disk 2 of the set first (Toad, Sunshine of Your Love.) Shot in high-def, the video is great. You can tell they've aged a bit, but the sound is still there. The difference in Ginger between the interview and performing is interesting. In the first, he gives the impression he's about ready to keel over, but once at the drums he just keeps going and going and going.
