Devon, 1939. Recalcitrant RAF officer Alexander Gorringe dreams of a cushy wartime billet. Together with his vindictive & perverted uncle, Reginald Thann, he devises a plan to have just that. Girls in uniform, military discipline & a very bizarre dairy farm feature in the latest story from the author of Devon Cream and Peaches & Cream. ...

Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce & Ginger Blake exploded onto the scene the day after England won the world cup in 1966 & within two years they too were champions of the world. Cream, modern music's first true supergroup, set standards that rock'n'roll still aspires to, not only creating some of rock's most enduring anthems (' Sunshine Of Your Love', 'I Feel Free', ' Badge', ' Strange Brew', ' White Room', ) but also rewriting the terms under which every subsequent band would operate.
Cream:the World's First Super Group transports the reader back to an age when the blues was still a mysterious music that came to Britain in the rucksacks of merchan seamen. Competition was fierce &, within a close network of legendary bands, musicians were poached, dropped & spurred by competitive rivalry. None were as ruthless in their devotion to music as Cream
- three momentous talents, three momentous egos, & three musicians who rarely saw eye to eye. but such was their power tath today, almost forty years after the band broke up, Cream remains a byword for musical quality.
jam-packed with incisive new interviews with a glittering cast of band members, friends, rivals & onlookers, Cream: The Worlds First Supergroup reads as if it were the best rock fiction ever written. Across 27 months, 4 LPs & the 300-or-so gigs, Cream's songs have sold cars & computers, bolstered movie soundtracks & launched entire careers. From life on the road in the mid-60s Britain to the psychedelic fog of Swinging London in 1967 & the reactionary brutality of America 1968
- these are the tumultuous years that first created, then enveloped, & finally dvoured the greatest rock band in the world.
