With elements of hard rock, psychedelia and pop music, this is one of Cream's most famous and popular songs. Cream bassist and vocalist Jack Bruce is based on the distinctive bass riff he developed after attending a Jimi Hendrix concert. Guitarist Eric Clapton and songwriter Pete Brown later contributed to the song. Recording engineer Tom Dowd offered a rhythm arrangement in which drummer Ginger Baker plays the characteristic rhythm of Tom-Tom's drum, although Baker claimed it was his idea. The song was included on Cream Disraeli Gears' best-selling second album in November 1967. Atco Records, the band's American label, was initially unsure of the song's potential. Following recommendations from other artists associated with the label, she released an edited single version in December 1967. The song became Cream's first and highest single on the U.S. chart and one of the most popular singles of 1968. In September 1968, it became a hit on the modest charts after its release in the UK. Cream regularly performed Sunshine of Your Love at concerts, and several live recordings were released, including at the Royal Albert Hall in London on May 2-3-5-6, 2005. Hendricks performed faster instrumental versions of the song, which he often dedicated to Cream. Several rock magazines have placed the song on their greatest song lists, such as Rolling Stone, Kew magazine and VH1. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame included him in the list of 500 songs that shaped rock and roll.

In early 1967, Cream wrote and rehearsed songs for his second album. Their debut album in December 1966, Fresh Cream, was a mixture of updated blues numbers and pop-oriented rock songs. Inspired by recent events in rock music, they began to pursue a more perfectly psychedelic direction. Sunshine of Your Love began as a bass phrase or riff developed by Cream bassist Jack Bruce. attended the concert on January 29 Jimi Hendrix Experience at the Saville Theatre in London. Cream guitarist Eric Clapton told Rolling Stone magazine in 1988 that he played a concert that dazzled. I don't think Jack (Bruce) really took him in before... and when he saw him that night, after the concert he went home and came up with a riff. It was Strictly Jimi's devotion. And then we wrote a song on top of it. Music writers Kovac and Boone describe the riff as a blues that uses a slight blues pentatonic scale with an added flattened fifth note (or a total blues scale). The song follows a blues chord (I-IV-I) for the first eight bars. Brown found it difficult to write texts suitable for the riff. After the night session, Bruce played stand-up bass, while lyricist Pete Brown stared out the window. Slowly, he began to write It's approaching dawn and the lights close their weary eyes, which is used in the first verse. Later, to break the rhythm, Clapton wrote a refrain that also gave the song its name. It consists of eight bar sections using three chords, when key chord shifts V (I and V): ♭III-♭VII I ♭III♭VII I ♭III♭VII I A bootleg recording from the Ricky-Tick Club in London before Cream recorded the song in the studio, shows Sunshine of Your Love with a rhythm common to rock during this period. Cream drummer Ginger Baker compared it to the top video Hey Now, Princess, another Bruce/Brown Cream track recorded in March. He said he advised Bruce to slow it down and came up with a distinctive drum pattern that emphasizes beats one and three 13 (typical rock drums beats two and four and is known as backbeats). However, Bruce and record engineer Tom Dowd dispute Baker's claim, which they say he made much later. Dowd later explained where all the other songs they played were prepared, but this song, they never found a pocket, they were never comfortable ... I said: You know, have you ever seen any American westerns (movies that have) an Indian beat, where is the downbeat to beat? ... And when he started playing that way, all the pieces came together, and immediately they were in high spirits. Krema's recording performed her first American concerts in New York in 1967. Robert Stigwood, the band's manager, booked them for the Murray K package show at the RKO Manhattan Theatre from March 25 to April 2, 1967. When it was finished, Stigwood arranged a recording with Ahmet Ertegun at Atlantic Studios. Bruce and Brown had several new songs at various stages of development, and they entered the studio on April 3. Ertegun initially commissioned Daoud to work with the trio. Dowd has worked with many of the biggest jazz and and blues musicians in the 1950s and 1960s. The band arrived in the Atlantic with a concert installation of several Marshall amplifiers (every 100 watts). Dowd was surprised by the amount of equipment accompanying the trio: They were recorded at the ear level... Everyone I've worked with before used Fender Deluxes (about 20 watts) or Twins (about 80 watts) - a six- and seven-piece band that didn't play as loud as those three plays. Ertegun brought in producer Felix Pappalardi, who he believed could work as a mediator with the band and Dowd. They started with Strange Brew, Tales of Brave Ulysses and Sunshine of Your Love. Ertegun watched the demo and was unhappy, expecting more blues-based material that was found on Fresh Cream. Jerry Wexler, Ertegun's partner at Atlantic Records, reportedly went so far as to call him a psychedelic plague. However, Booker T. Jones (producer and keyboardist Booker T. and M.G.) and Otis Redding (both whose Stax recordings at the time were distributed by Atco Parent Atlantic) gave Sunshine of Your Love their heartfelt endorsement. The differences were smoothed out by the time Cream returned in May 1967 to finish recording songs for Disraeli Gears. With Pappalardi and Dowd, work continued on The Sunshine of Your Love. For his guitar solo, Clapton used a sound known as female tone on his 1964 Gibson SG Standard. Author Mitch Gallagher describes it as a smooth, dark, singing, supportive sound. This is one of the most famous examples of a woman's tonality and quotes a melody from the long-standing pop standard Blue Moon. Using the song's main pentatonic scale, Clapton contrasts himself with the blues riff scale. The author of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame describes it as creating a balance between the sun and the moon. Baker plays most of the song on volumes described as sounding African (Schumacher) and Native American (Shapiro). Kovac and Boone note that he concentrates on the lower languor sounds and uses articulation and sound reminiscent of jazz drums in woody Herman or Benny Goodman bands. Sunshine of Your Love was included as the second track on Disraeli Gears, which was released in November 1967 by Reaction Records in the United Kingdom and Atco Records in the United States. Atco did not initially see the song as a single (Strange Brew, backed up by Tales of Brave Ulysses, was released as a single in June 1967. However, in December 1967, the label released an edited version of the song as the second single from the album, backed up by SWLABR (the opening time was reduced from 4:08 to 3:03). It entered the Billboard Hot 100 chart on January 13, 1968, reaching number 36 at the time of its initial Run. It re-entered the charts on July 6, 1968, and reached the 5th on August 31, 1968. In the UK, the single was released only in September 1968, after Cream announced its impending breakup. Polydor Records released a British single that reached number 25 on the charts.
