Blind Faith

Supergroup Blind Faith was formed from the ashes of Britain's
first supergroup Cream. Eric Clapton and Ginger Baker combing forces with
Traffic's multi-instrumentalist Steve Winwood and Family's Ric Grech ensured Blind
Faith was the most eagerly anticipated band in 1969.
A debut gig at London's Hyde Park to 100,000 people was
indicative of the expectations. Their self-titled album reached number one in
both the UK and US and was backed up with a tour of the States. But before fans
could blink, that was it! It was all over for Blind Faith.
Despite only being around for a matter of months, because of
the calibre of the musicians involved, Blind Faith is still talked about today.
Now Marc Shapiro has chronicled those heady times-the formation, the recording
and the gigs in this detailed tome.
