It was released in November 1967〔 and went on to reach No. 5 on the UK Albums Chart.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=UK Top 40 Hit Database ) Search "Cream" in ''Name of Artist''〕 It was also their American breakthrough, becoming a massive seller there in 1968, reaching No. 4 on the American charts. The album was No. 1 for two weeks on the Australian album chart and was listed as the No. 1 album of 1968 by ''Cash Box'' in the year-end album chart in the United States.〔(''Cash Box'' Top 100 Pop Albums of 1968. )〕 The album features the two singles "Strange Brew" and "Sunshine of Your Love". The title of the album is based on a malapropism. Eric Clapton had been thinking of buying a racing bicycle and was discussing it with Ginger Baker, when a roadie named Mick Turner commented, "it's got them Disraeli gears", meaning to say "derailleur gears", but instead alluding to 19th-century British Prime Minister, Benjamin Disraeli. The band thought this was hilarious, and decided that it should be the title of their next album. The original 11-track album was remastered in 1998, and then subsequently released as a two-disc ''Deluxe Edition'' in 2004. In 1999, the album was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. In 2003 the album was ranked No. 114 on ''Rolling Stone'' magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. VH1 also named it their 87th greatest album of all time in 2001. In 2008, the album won a Classic Rock Roll of Honours Award for Classic Album.〔http://www.classicrockmagazine.com/news/the_dirt/classic_rock_roll_of_honour/〕 ==Background== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Disraeli Gears」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
