Cream

Cream was the first rock supergroup. Eric Clapton had been in John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, Jack Bruce in Manfred Mann, and Ginger Baker in The Graham Bond Organization. Bruce was also in The Bluesbreakers for about a month, replacing John McVie.

It was the Cream years when the "Clapton is God" graffiti started showing up around England.

They made just four albums and were extant for only three years before their breakup , but Cream were so influential they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993.
