Blind Faith 


Britain's most anxiously awaited super-group made an auspicious debut at a huge outdoor concert in London's Hyde Park on 7 July 1969.  

Blind Faith was formed by Eric Clapton and Ginger Baker from Cream, Steve Winwood from Traffic and Ric Grech from Family.

Advanced ballyhoo guaranteed a worldwide chart-topping, platinum album and a sold-out American tour, but the dissatisfaction of the participants led to their dissolving the group in less than a year. No one's been quite as keen on 'supergroups' ever since.
