My personal review and reflection:
An interesting compilation. First of all, lots of great music by Cream, Blind Faith and Delaney & Bonnie. The really interesting track is "I Want To Know" with Eric Clapton & the Powerhouse from 1966. The Powerhouse was a "supergroup" with Eric, Stevie Winwood, Jack Bruce, Peter York, Ben Palmer and Paul Jones. A second interesting track is "Teasin" with King Curtis from 1970. You can only find this track on the single or on this LP!
