    I sure can't.

    I hate to admit it, but no, not me either.

    I will say that "Glad" and "Four Till Late" are two of my favorite Cream
    songs (and I am NOT in any way a fan of that group). I like them
    because they are short, to the point, and respectful, neither slavish imitations or "Crossroads"-style transmogrifications.

    My other favorite is "Strange Brew." It's short and to the point too.

    Interestingly Four Until Late is my Cream favorite. Great minds....

    Speaking of From Four Until Late, here is the Robert Johnson original,
    and Cream's version:

    Nor I. I heard Cream's version when I was in Boston in 1967. First
    time I'd heard the song. Then I actually saw Skip James perform it at
    the Gaslight Cafe in NYC later that year. What an experience.
