Brand new sealed 180 gram repressing. Includes free digital download voucher.

Live Cream Volume II is the second live compilation album by the English rock band Cream, released in March 1972 by Polydor Records (Atco Records in the US). This album contains six tracks recorded at various performances from 9 March to 4 October 1968.^[1]

Matthew Greenwald & and Bruce Eder of Allmusic stated that Volume 2 had more songs on it than its predecessor, including two songs whose album versions were released as singles. They also commented on how the sound quality was some of the best at the time. They did not like, however, that there were not as many extended jams as there were on the predecessor and that Jack Bruce and Eric Clapton's singing is not good on "White Room" and "Sunshine of Your Love." They think that the live version of "Deserted Cities of the Heart" is better than the studio version. They also think that the 1998 remastered version is better than the versions before.^[3]
