Songs That Changed My Life - Cream: Sunshine of your Love
I was getting into Martin Scorcese as a director. I'd done Mean Streets & Taxi Driver, and was half way through Goodfellas when I heard that riff, permeating the screen as the camera slowly tracks into Robert De Niro sat at the bar, his cigarette smoke swirling in the dim bar light.
I needed to know where this riff came from. It was increadible! I'd never heard guitar like that before, and it'd be two years when I'd finally hear the song in its entirety, going through my friends CD collection in A levels and checking out his 'Cream of Clapton' CD. the riff came on again. I rushed to the CD player and checked the track, compared it with the CD case so I'd know the name of the damn song that's been stuck in my head for years, and finally have a new guitar hero to look up to.
From here, I found 'White Room', 'Tears in Heaven', and most importantly, 'Crossroads'. That shit blew my fucking mind and brought back my love for the blues.
Well, that and Jimi's 'Red House', but we'll get into Jimi later...
