The very first 'supergroup' was Cream in 1966 with Eric Clapton, Ginger
Baker and Jack Bruce, followed by Al Kooper, Mike Bloomfield and Stephen
which produced the album called 'Super Sessions' in 1969.

Excellent. Great find.
Our friend Joe wrote on another forum that he just saw
CSNY in San Francisco a few days ago, and they nailed
