Up for sale is a rare and highly sought-after LP from Cream, titled "Fresh Cream." This is a first pressing on the Reaction label from 1966, featuring the iconic trio of Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, and Ginger Baker. The album includes classic tracks like "I Feel Free" and "Spoonful," and is sure to be a prized addition to any collection of rock or blues music.

Note: All records I list are from my personal archive.

They have been shelved upright in a clean, cool dry environment. Attempts to capture a clear photo of the record condition has proved fruitless. Because of this, I'm grading on the low end to assure the buyer the best accurate description for the most enjoyable listening experience. Sound quality is excellent and playback flawless unless otherwise stated in description.

*This nice clean glossy record has been well-cared for, is in VG+ condition with some light superficial surface hairline marks/scuffs on both sides. The amazing production and stereo sound separation recording makes this record a wonderful aural experience. The laminated cover is in VG condition with minimal ring/shelf wear, light creasing around edges/corners/front & back, some staining on back bottom edge, and the word 'Greg' on back upper right corner in red marker. Labels are in VG+ condition with some light spindle marks. Poly-vinyl paper inner sleeve is in VG+ condition. This is a must-have for any serious collector of vinyl records, especially those interested in psychedelic rock and the British music scene of the 1960s.
