Guess what classic rock band wrote the lyrics below.

I found this post of mine of 12 years ago in CompuServe:

"As I speak I am "Sitting On Top Of The World", in my "White Room" "Passing
The Time", tasting a "Strange Brew", "As You Said". Not a "Politician",
not at a "Crossroads", with no "Spoonful". I am not a "Toad", but *definitely*
"Born Under A Bad Sign ('If It Wasn't for Bad Luck, I Wouldn't Have no
Luck at All!!)"

ANSWER: One of the two best power trios of the 1960s: CREAM. Eric Clapton was the guitarist. The other power trio was (of course) The Jimi Hendrix Experience with (you guessed it) Jimi Hendrix as guitarist.

You know who I think was Jimi Hendrix's "successor" who took what Hendrix did and elevated it to even higher ground? Stevie Ray Vaughan, IMHO. (And they are both freaking dead!)
