What've you been smoking, and can you get me some?  BBM is a killer
record, in fact, it's the Cream reuinion with Gary on Gtr.  The only
criticism is that is sounds too much like a Cream record.  Definitely
get a copy and check it out. As for Gary being better on the jazzy
stuff, I think you should have added IMHO, 'cause IMHO his rocked out
stuff was by far the best, even better than the current blues stuff.
Anyway, BBM is definitely worth a listen
