Cream’s penultimate album, issued in 1968, combined a disc of studio material (including the worldwide hit “White Room” and “Politician”) with a quartet of performances recorded at The Fillmore West and Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco, from a killer Eric Clapton arrangement of Robert Johnson’s “Crossroads” to the Ginger Baker drum solo “Toad.” The deluxe 5CD edition includes four mixes of the album, including a stereo restoration and rare reference reels from producer Felix Pappalardi; an additional bonus selection of live audio (including an exclusive track from a Record Store Day triple album issued last month) and unreleased alternate mixes and single-only tracks. A 3LP edition, White Room: In the Studio, complements the aforementioned RSD set, with three LPs offering the restored stereo and mono reference mixes of the album with highlights from the alternate mixes disc.
