abstract
| - %22Tales of Brave Ulysses%22 is a song performed by the 1960s group Cream.The lyrics were written by artist Martin Sharp, and the music was composed by Eric Clapton.Arranged by Robert Stigwood, the song is featured on Cream's album Disraeli Gears.The song is credited on the single to P. Brown, J. Bruce, and E. Clapton.Clapton was at The Speakeasy Club with his girlfriend, French model Charlotte Martin, mother of photographer Scarlet Page.Charlotte introduced him to Sharp, and %22we hit it off, I liked him a lot%22.Sharp said he'd just written a song, Clapton replied he'd just written some music, so Sharp wrote the lyrics down on a serviette along with his address and handed them over.Sharp had written them to the tune of Judy Collins' version of Leonard Cohen's %22Suzanne%22.Clapton was a fan of guitarist Zal Yanovsky of The Lovin' Spoonful, and had heard their Summer in the City a year earlier,and has said that the Tale of Brave Ulysses riff %22was straight out of it%22.It was Bassist Jack Bruce that found a way to sing the lyrics over Clapton's riff.The day before writing the song, Clapton discovered the wah-wah pedal, which added %22atmospherics%22 to the song.
