Description
In 1968, Cream—the explosive power trio of Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, and Ginger Baker—redefined rock music with Wheels of Fire, the world's first platinum-selling double album. Now, nearly six decades later, experience the studio half of that monumental release in its absolute definitive form with this Super Deluxe 3LP Box Set.
For the first time ever, the original stereo album has been painstakingly phase-corrected. This process completely removes the controversial 1968 Haeco-CSG processing, restoring the mix to its natural, punchy, and intended soundstage. Tracks like "White Room" and "Deserted Cities of the Heart" have never sounded this clear, vibrant, or powerful.
This Deluxe Box Set Features:
- LP 1 (Stereo): The newly phase-corrected and remastered original studio master.
- LP 2 (Mono): The rare, sought-after mono mix, sourced directly from producer Felix Pappalardi's personal reference tapes.
- LP 3 (Studio Rarities): Eleven deep-dive tracks, including alternate studio mixes, early takes, and single variations—featuring eight previously unreleased recordings.
Pressed on audiophile-grade 180g heavy black vinyl, this collection is a historical treasure trove. It is an absolute essential for vinyl purists, blues-rock aficionados, and anyone who wants to hear Eric Clapton’s legendary guitar tone exactly as it was meant to be heard.
