Da hast Du natürlich recht!

Von einer US Rockseite hier ein Text und schönes Foto von 1967. Ankunft in San Francisco.

In August 1967, **Cream** launched their first U.S. tour, performing at the **Fillmore Auditorium** in San Francisco.
This marked a significant moment in rock history, as the band—comprised of Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, and Ginger Baker
—introduced their pioneering fusion of blues, rock, and psychedelic influences to American audiences.
Cream’s innovative sound, with Clapton’s legendary guitar solos and the band’s improvisational jams,
quickly made them one of the most influential acts of the 60s. The Fillmore performances,
as part of a two-week residency, were pivotal in solidifying their reputation as one of rock’s greatest live bands.
Their U.S. debut helped lay the foundation for their legacy in the rock world, inspiring future musicians
and contributing to the growth of the psychedelic and blues-rock movements.
