I heard a cover of this song last night, sung by a female lead vocal...I was wondering who the artist might be...

[edit] Guitar on the track

The article claimed EC played a Les Paul on "Sunshine of Your Love", which was admittedly the signature instrument for the 'woman tone'. However, I quote the article Eric Clapton:

"He later loaned the SG to singer Jackie Lomax, who subsequently sold it to musician Todd Rundgren for US$500 in 1972. Rundgren restored the guitar and nicknamed "Sunny", after "Sunshine Of Your Love", on which it featured"

Furthermore, the liner notes of Disraeli Gears have a photo of Cream, with Eric by his SG. Anyway, easy mistake, no worries. Deltabeignet 03:11, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

Don't forget that when hendrix played this song, it was after the band broke up. It was thought that he did that knowing about cream's break-up. -Me
