New York, July 19 (IANS) On the heels of its May reunion at London's Royal Albert Hall, the legendary band Cream may reconvene for another round of shows in the US later this year.
Billboard.com quoted sources as saying that dates are being "unofficially" held for three concerts at Madison Square Garden in October by the trio comprising guitarist Eric Clapton, bassist Jack Bruce and drummer Ginger Baker.
Cream regrouped for the first time since their 1993 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for a May 2-6 run at London's Royal Albert Hall. The shows grossed more than $3.6 million.
"Live, Cream was a great, hardworking band -- Eric was supreme and Ginger the most musical drummer alive -- and those original live albums were very good, probably the best records of their kind up to that point," Bruce had said in 1997.
Neither Madison Square Garden nor Clapton's agent would confirm the US concerts.
Clapton's new studio album "Back Home" will be released Aug 30. The set features guest appearances from John Mayer, Steve Winwood, Robert Randolph and Simon Climie.
