Wheels of Fire - Cream [Colour Vinyl]
'Wheels of Fire' is the third studio album by British rock trio Cream, originally released in 1968. Recorded between 1967 and 1968, the album marked a shift from the rapid sessions of 'Disraeli Gears', instead taking shape over many months in short bursts at IBC Studios in London, with production by Felix Pappalardi. Released as a groundbreaking double album, 'Wheels of Fire' pairs studio recordings, including the classic singles 'White Room' and 'Crossroads', with a powerful live disc recorded across six shows at San Francisco's Fillmore Auditorium by Pappalardi and engineer Bill Halverson. The result is widely regarded as one of the definitive statements of Cream's studio craft and live intensity.
