Talk:Sunshine of Your Love/Archive 1

Untitled
I heard a cover of this song last night, sung by a female lead vocal...I was wondering who the artist might be...
 * There was a cover matching that description in The In-Laws. Deltabeignet 04:25, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Guitar on the track
The article claimed EC played a Les Paul on "Sunshine of Your Love", which was admittedly the signature instrument for the 'woman tone'. However, I quote the article Eric Clapton:

"He later loaned the SG to singer Jackie Lomax, who subsequently sold it to musician Todd Rundgren for US$500 in 1972. Rundgren restored the guitar and nicknamed "Sunny", after "Sunshine Of Your Love", on which it featured"

Furthermore, the liner notes of Disraeli Gears have a photo of Cream, with Eric by his SG. Anyway, easy mistake, no worries. Deltabeignet 03:11, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

There is no source what guitar and amp Clapton used. Another Wikipedia article is not a valid source where unbacked in itself. Photos from the recording sessions show Clapton had his 1964 Fool SG and his Les Paul Custom with him, and they also show that a Fender Twin reverb was around (plugged into, too) along with the Marshall JTM45/100 with four KT-66 power tubes (http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Lifestyle/Features/Legendary%20Guitar_%20The%20Saga%20of/ - see b/w photo at the bottom). Udo Pipper, vintage gear expert from renowned German magazine Gitarre&Bass has tried plugging an SG into a Blackface Twin Reverb with RCA tubes, and at maximum volume, the setup yielded that "Sunshine Of Your Love" tone... Well, since it's known Samba Pa Ti and Albatross were recorded with Strats, we should challenge our acoustic prejudice :-) Herringgull2 (talk) 11:44, 7 June 2011 (UTC)

Don't forget that when hendrix played this song, it was after the band broke up. It was thought that he did that knowing about cream's break-up. -Me

HASN'T ANYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD NOTICED HOW ALIKE COCAINE AND SUNSHINE OF YOUR LOVE ARE? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.232.161.83 (talk) 02:42, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
 * I think there's also an amazing similarity between it and In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.189.249.13 (talk) 22:47, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, I've noticed how alike 'Cocaine' and 'Sunshine of your Love' are: not very. Lexo (talk) 23:41, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

SUPER GROUP???
since when is cream a super group?????? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.196.244.26 (talk) 13:43, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

since forever, all the band members were already established musicians in other groups. Cream is usually referred to as the first super group. Sebastian341 (talk) 22:00, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

Fudge Tunnel cover
Fudge Tunnel are referred to as a doom band, when the most accurate genre would be sludge. Even on Fudge Tunnel, it is classed as sludge. So if no-one has any grievances about it, I will change the article to suit. Cheers Bluebear89 (talk) 19:07, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

D-Minor Scale Riff
To clean-up this page I removed the part about the song riff being a D-minor Scale. If it is a D-minor Scale, then there must be a reliable source. Rock&#39;N&#39;More (talk) 21:38, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

References listed but not cited
I don't know if it matters, or if it might even be intentional, but on the script for checking citations, these references give errors. They are listed in the refence section, but never cited. --Gaff (talk) 23:16, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
