A bit of a stretch because it only has "Rollin", but any list of great rock 'n' roll must include something by Cream.

Ok, since you dragged Cream into it...no rock, no roll, but one of the great rock 'n roll tunes ever....with three of the best ever on their own instruments, Clapton, of course, on lead, Jack Bruce, one of the great bass players in the history of rock, and Ginger Baker, maybe the best rock drummer of all time...and all-time flake as well.



just a little info on this clip...notice the celebs in the crowd shots, including one of my all-time favorite journalists, Christiane Amanpour.

Not trying to hijack the thread, but here's the full show from the Royal Albert Hall concerts. In 2005, they were obviously aging, but still iconic talents.
