From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"I'm So Glad" is a song originally recorded by Skip James in the early 1930s. The song is derived from a 1927 song by Art Sizemore and George A. Little entitled "So Tired". It was then covered by Cream on their first album, Fresh Cream, then later put on their last studio album Goodbye as a live performance.
"I'm So Glad" was also recorded by Deep Purple, in a medley with their original song "Prelude to Happiness", for their 1968 debut album Shades of Deep Purple. Deep Purple supported Cream on their Farewell Tour in October 1968 where Cream's Goodbye version was recorded. Deep Purple recorded their own live album on the same night, titled Inglewood - Live in California. The album, however, remained shelved until 2002, when it finally was released.
