This signed sheet music is for Blue Condition by Cream, autographed by the band’s groundbreaking drummer Ginger Baker. Released in 1967 on Cream’s second album Disraeli Gears, Blue Condition is a unique entry in the band’s catalog as it features Baker himself on lead vocals—one of the few tracks where he stepped out from behind the kit in this way. The song is a mid-tempo blues number with tongue-in-cheek lyrics reflecting Baker’s dry sense of humor. While it lacks the fiery improvisation of Cream’s more famous hits like Sunshine of Your Love or White Room, Blue Condition highlights the band’s versatility and Baker’s distinctive personality, blending British blues-rock with a playful edge. Ginger Baker (1939–2019) was far more than Cream’s drummer—he was one of the most innovative percussionists in rock history. Known for fusing jazz complexity with rock power, he pioneered extended drum solos, polyrhythms, and a more improvisational role for drums within a band. On Blue Condition, Baker revealed another side of his artistry as a songwriter and singer, showing that his talents extended beyond his legendary drumming. Beyond Cream, his career included stints with Blind Faith, Air Force, and collaborations with Afrobeat icon Fela Kuti, all of which underscored his adventurous and uncompromising approach to music. Owning this signed sheet music for Blue Condition is more than a collectible—it’s a piece of rock history tied to one of Cream’s quirkiest and most distinctive tracks, as well as to Ginger Baker, a drummer whose vision reshaped the role of percussion in popular music. For Cream fans, collectors of 1960s rock memorabilia, and admirers of Baker’s singular career, this artifact captures a rare glimpse of his voice—both literally and musically.
