On a contentious fourteenth episode of My Favorite Album, Mississippi Shakedown frontman, producer and studio owner Jeff Cripps steps into the podbooth to chat/argue about Cream’s smash hit 1968 double album Wheels of Fire.
In the spirit of the band, Jeff and Jeremy butt heads over the studio disc vs. the live disc, whether the band’s live power came from cooperation or competition, whether Eric Clapton’s live versions of Crossroads measure up to the version on this album and much more. They also break down classic tracks White Room, Spoonful, Crossroads and As You Said.
