Yesterday morning as I turned onto the Interstate, Sirius XM's Classic Vinyl played Cream's "I'm So Glad" cover of Skip James' song. I thought the announcer said it was Elmore James, but I was watching traffic and may have not heard correctly.
A high school friend showed me how to play the early bass part on the song. That's as far as I got which is why I write! The country blues song becomes something else great with Cream, as Clapton masterfully adds a psychedelic dash to the guitar.
We all built on each other, no matter what our talents are. First Skip, then Cream!
