A wonderful version of 'Spoonful' with Jack singing most of the way through. 'Crossroads' & 'Sunshine' are great. 'Stepping Out' and 'Sitting on Top of the World' are just the Live Cream 2 and Goodbye versions and, of course, 'White Room', Politician' and 'Deserted Cities' are from Live Cream 2'. A good, concise, 'I'm so Glad'. |
