Is the name of the album derived from Benjamin Disraeli? ~~Shiri — Talk~~ 01:53, Apr 17, 2005 (UTC)

No, it tells the story of the album's title in article under "Trivia."

[edit] Ginger Baker's singing

From article: "The track Blue Condition was unusual in that Baker, although by any account not a singer, took the lead vocal."

This sentence is not helpful, and is certainly not encyclopedia quality. Is it the only Cream track every sung by Ginger Baker? If so, it should say so; if not, either it should name the other songs or the comment should be removed altogether.

Unfortunately, I don't have every Cream album, and although I looked around online I could not find the singing credits for every Cream song ever released.

It's a very rare occurence that Ginger Baker sang. So yes, I'd say it is a pretty true statement, it's one of the only times Ginger Baker has sung on a Cream song (trust me, a lot of Cream songs are known and very famous, and this is the only one I know of in which Baker was given vocals). He also wrote the song. Aaрон Кинни (t) 12:52, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
Baker did sing solo (recited actually) on "Pressed Rat and Warthog" and shared vocals with Bruce on "What a Bringdown". --Bruce1ee 07:28, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] SWLABR

Several sites say the W in SWLABR stands for "walks"[1] while another site says "was" [2]. Any definitive source? --TeaDrinker 20:59, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

According to jackbruce.com, which I think we can take as a definitive source, it's "She Walks Like A Bearded Rainbow". --Bruce1ee 12:24, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
