CREAM

Brown was originally brought into the Cream fold as a writing partner for drummer Ginger Baker , but the group quickly discovered that he worked better with bassist Jack Bruce. Of the situation, Bruce later remarked "Ginger and Pete were at my flat trying to work on a song but it wasn't happening. My wife Janet then got with Ginger and they wrote 'Sweet Wine' while I started working with Pete."

Together, Brown and Bruce wrote the majority of Cream's numbers, including the hits " I Feel Free ", " White Room " and (with Clapton ) " Sunshine Of Your Love ".

After the breakup of Cream, Bruce and Brown continued to write songs together for Bruce's solo career. Brown wrote the lyrics for Bruce's albums ''Songs For a Tailor'', ''Harmony Row'' and ''Into the Storm''.
