Cream - Tales Of Brave Ulysses Lyrics
You thought the leaden winter would bring you down forever
But you rode upon a steamer to the violence of the sun
And the colours of the sea bind your eyes with trembling mermaids
And you touch the distant beaches with tales of brave Ulysses
For the sparkling waves are calling you to kiss their white laced lips
And you see a girl's brown body dancing through the turquoise
And her footprints make you follow where the sky loves the sea
And when your fingers find her, she drowns you in her body
Carving deep blue ripples in the tissues of your mind
The tiny purple fishes run laughing through your fingers
And you want to take her with you to the hard land of the winter
And you know you cannot leave her for you touched the distant sands
With tales of brave Ulysses, how his naked ears were tortured
By the sirens sweetly singing
The tiny purple fishes run laughing through your fingers
And you want to take her with you to the hard land of the winter

Cream Tales Of Brave Ulysses Comments
Is it just me, or does this beat sound almost the same as White Room?
My fave tune off album...love album and Cream
FAR OUT MAN! PURE CLASSIC ALL THE WAY!✌
what band!!!...incredible!!!...1968...the power trio!!! CREAM
This song makes me face-plant my floor.
HIPPIE MUSIC!! Ah the memories
Why does this sound so much like White Room?
I agree! It is so similar...
Im 20 Yo and i have good taste~
Acid music big time!!!
Cream just came to mind 'After Decades', I am not a great fan of drums; but GB and the rest of the band even so young were truly meant to do what God had given them the gift to do! It matters not of there personal lives, at that moment in time; They were one with the planet and history!
'So why they call you Ripper?'
'Wouldn't you like to know'
ginger's "CRACK" on this is a jab
so cream is basically jack & eric start w blues...ginger counters w/ jazz/fusion...eric & jack figure it out
"Quit laughing, freak, the... jk
Who else dances to this song ? 👋🏻😅
THIS AND CROSSROADS ARE MY FAVORITE cREAM SONGS.
remember when we use to make out to this song?
Must have dropped the brown acid
I love everything from cream
I know everybody says Hendrix is the best...but i don't know man i think that Clapton eats him with Fresh Cream, Disraeli Gears and Wheels Of Fire work
no one cares about your opinion. Baker was the best musician in cream anyway, it was his band.
@Steve Keebler you must be a very nice and inteligent man
Christopher Moltisanti lets be friends
Crazy shit people
This song and "Are you Experienced" by Hendrix are the epitome of 60's music!
Greek myth brought to life in rock.
i love this
In the white room , with black curtains....
Us baby boomers are losing all of our great musicians. Only Clapton left now, two Beatles are still here, all of JImi Hendrix experience are gone, just one "spider" left, just Grace and Jorma from the Airplane. Soon we too will be gone. Like George Harrison said "life goes on within you and without you".
Giles got me to listen
Jack Bruce the real deal...........no comprimise
jack's bass sounds like it's coughing, nice overdriven tone
God....! Ginger was a M U S I C I A N.
Absolutely TREMENDOUS!!!!!!!!!
You know what? Jack Bruce DID have a GREAT voice!!!
Cream the greatest rock band of all time your music will live forever rip ginger and Jack many happy memories x
Ginger was an Asshole
negasonic teenage warhead by monster magnet's father
RIP Ginger Baker, Have been listening since 1968
Fuck yeah...
LOVE this song!
Im looking for a tiny purple fishes emojie
Times of great trips!
Let us not forget Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker and Eric Clapton and this manifestation of their musical inspiration. Tales of Brave Ulysses, Powerful electric stuff for young ears. Jack Bruce sang that song for our generation.
Never heard anyone use a way pedal better than Clapton. Hendrix included
Every time I hear this song, it makes me glad that I wrote it.
if it thunders in your part of the world tonight, it's ginger and moonie pounding on the the skins!!!
now there's only Eric left to hold the torch high.
rest your souls easy, Jack and Ginger 🌷🌻
Monster Magnet's obvious inspiration for "Negasonic Teenage Warhead."
Bruce and ginger are probabaly jamming right now r.i.p guys
beautiful artful eyes autumn blue of the sea, not there real but quickly ho ho whaho..-- 0:30
Shitty mix... Where's dah drums¿....
Music today is so Gay
Rest in Heaven Ginger Baker (1939-2019) 🙏🏻
I remember riding my bicycle to Town & Country Village , across from Stanford Stadium , and buying Disraeli Gears at Treasure Island (the record store). That was over 50 years ago. It remains a Masterpiece to this day. RIP Mr. Baker
The Tales of Brave Ginger Baker..I just watched that documentary on him like 3 weeks ago and now he's dead. All my heroes are dying, man, I got Ozzy, Iggy, and..A couple other idols left, but...Fuck..Lou Reed, Daniel Johnston, Roky Erickson, they're all dying. I'm terrified. RIP you beautiful people, and thank you for keeping me from blowing my head off more times than I can count.
See you on the other side Ginger. RIP
Cream rocks! RIP ginger baker
RIP, pulsing through the Universe
Tiny purple fishes run laughing torough your fingers
And you want to take her with you , to the hard land of the winter
While everyone else was wondering if Paul was dead or if Charlie Watts was the shit there was CREAM. Rip
Rest in Piece and thank you for your contribution in music Mr Baker.
You will be missed!
Rip Ginger Baker
God Bless You, Red. You were Brave and we'll miss you.
what a lyrics ...............wow.........drug works
I pee to this
Rip ginger baker..to bad clapton moved far away from this kind of playing..jimi hendrix said this song was the first time he ever heard a wha..pedal
Many of the lyrics on Disraeli Gears written by Pete Brown aka Peter the Poet.
RIP Ginger Baker - now with Jack Bruce - heaven's first power duo.
Musiikissa on vaikeinta alku loppua siinä ei ole
This song really needs to be at least 10 minutes long!!
My fav Cream song...Rest in Peace Ginger, and Thank You.

Thinking of you today, Mr. Baker. You were a singular phenomenal and innovative talent.

GINGER BAKER LIVES
RIP ginger baker
R. I. P! Ginger Baker
The lyrics’ syntax is typical from the 60’s, the ideas flow into a continuum of beautiful ideas expressed with artistic precision. This reminds me the first lines from Howl.
Rip Ginger and Jack!
Rest in peace Ginger....thank you for the beautiful music!
Timothy Leary is outside looking in - RIP Ginger
RIP Ginger Baker
And to think this song was gifted to cream by a friend of a friend. What mind altering drugs was he experimenting with that allowed his consciousness to find the words to create one the the all time classics of Rock.
Rest easy Ginger Baker ~ 💫 thanks for all the great grooves 💫
RIP Ginger Baker! Next time I hear thunder I’ll know you found your kit in the afterlife.
Great send off, have never heard of the ascension so eloquently.
R.I.P Ginger Baker ( Did you hear Kelly play for you?! He's cool isn't he?! We talked of you the 1st time we ever met!) 1939-2019 Amen!
RIP Ginger Baker.
R.I.P. Mr. Baker.
