Recorded in the U.S. in a three-and-a-half day flurry of inspired activity before the band members' visas expired, DISRAELI GEARS continued to present the legendary, unprecedented rock power-trio acrobatics pioneered by Cream on their debut FRESH CREAM. The acronymic "SWLABR (She Walked Like a Bearded Rainbow)" for instance, featured some of the band's most fiery instrumental interplay. The album, with its eye-catching day-glo cover, was produced by Felix Pappalardi (who went on to co-found the Cream-inspired Mountain) and once again featured collaborations between singer/bassist Jack Bruce and lyric poet Pete Brown. The Top Five hit "Sunshine Of Your Love," however, was written by Brown and Eric Clapton. That iconic riff-rocker, along with the slinky, bluesy "Strange Brew," and the mythographic, wah-wah stomper "Tales of Brave Ulysses" was a staple of rock radio forever after, making DISRAELI GEARS one of the seminal '60s rock albums. Despite the good humor suggested by the jokey a capella reading of "Mother's Lament," however, all was far from peace and love in the Cream camp at the time, as internal and external pressures broke up the band by the end of 1968.

曲そのものもサイケな時代を反映させつつ、ヘビィにロックしているのが凄く格好いいです。特に1曲目から2曲目への繋がりは絶妙。音源としてはステレオ、モノラルとありますがどちらかと云えばモノラルの方がエネルギーが集中している様に聞こえます。ですので、緩いながらもより力強いロックに聴こえると思います。Lilith盤はモノラル収録ですし、すごく音が太いです。オリジナルが高くて手が出ない人でも気軽にオリジナルに近い迫力のある音楽楽しめます。

浮遊感あるサイケ仕様、ゆるーい感じが何ともたまんない。そこに切り込むエモーショナルなギター、神懸かり的。
