In the late '60s, Cream became one of rock and roll's biggest supergroups due to the raw talent of Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker and Eric Clapton. The band left a lasting impression on music and popular culture with songs like "I'm So Glad," "Strange Brew," "White Room," "Sunshine of Your Love" and hit covers of Howlin' Wolf's "Sitting on Top of the World" and Albert King's "Born Under a Bad Sign." Ginger Baker's son Kofi, Jack Bruce's son Malcolm and guitarist Godfrey Townsend formed Sons of Cream to pay homage to both their fathers and one of the greatest rock trios of all time. The tribute act captures the spirit of the Cream era while each member lays down their distinctive stamp on these classic songs. Learn More

Three friends and I went to this event. We enjoyed it very much. They had a bunch of children with their parents on the dance floor, and it was great fun to watch this. The group was fine; the music they played was very much in keeping with the fact that it was Bob Marley's Birthday Bash. The food was good; the service was excellent.

The Reggae Band was dynamic, the members of the band was very energetic and the guest artists was wonderful. This rarely was an excellent tribute to Bob Marley. I gave this a 10. I would not miss this ever again.
