As the final demo of their pre-album release, Cream crafted this polka-march power-ballad instrumental in defiance of the record company who were pressuring them for another commercial single to launch the album (which was still underwraps and in the hands of Felix Pappalardi). While the bridge of this tune is actually a very nice momentary hook, the recurring polka-march it's built on and train-wreck at the end assured it couldn't even be slipped in as a B-side. The stratagy worked in more ways than one and they made it to the release date and Cream became known as a powerhouse blues outfit. They would, however, continue the jokes by slipping silly tunes onto their albums from time to time.
