Cream was my favorite group of the late '60s, with three superior instrumentalists. Jack's voice and songwriting took it all to a higher plane, speaking somehow to my inner self.
I was a massive cream fan, I got on a train at liverpool street in the early 70's and I saw him walk by. Once the train was on the move I went to the Buffett car, and he was sat there We chatted for a while, until he got off at Colchester, he was happy to chat, the time flew by.
Thanks for tis great offering of Jack's life story. What a fabulous bassist and musician he was and what great sounds he made for the bands he was part of. RIP Jack.
Thanks for putting this together, it was enjoyable to watch. Some exciting news: Jack's brilliant _Songs for a Tailor_ is being reissued in a box set including 2 CDs & 2 Blu-Ray discs, with new stereo and 5.1 surround mixes by Stephen W Tayler. Also included on the Blu-Ray is the 1970 documentary film _Rope Ladder to the Moon._ I think _Songs_ and _Harmony Row_ are two of the most underrated records of the period. I dearly love them both to this day. Very excited to hear these new mixes.
@@casedismissed8581 Saw Jack with Cream six times in Detroit.....Jack Bruce And Friends (Mitch Mitchell)....Detroit......Jack (solo) San Diego Jack and Ginger tour ...Los Angeles
I saw Jack Bruce in concert on November 24,1972 at the Hollywood Palladium in Hollywood, California. Bruce was a member of "West, Bruce And Laing" at that time. It was a mind blowing experience standing at the front of the stage and listening to Bruce's Lead Vocal! What a voice! I'll never forget a female fan screaming "Jack!", "Jack!" with her arms flailing trying to touch Jack!
Fortunate to see J. Bruce twice. Cream's farewell tour in 68 and again in 69. In 69 at Fillmore West as headliner Jack Bruce & Friends with Coryell and Mitch Mitchell. On the same bill was Mountain and the Winter Brothers. RIP with all your efforts to create the best and play with all the greats.
Bruce and friends were not loud. As they were playing jazz the sound was level and not extreme. Mountain was extremely loud with West holding feedback notes until your head hurt and smiling the whole time.
I'll never ever forget seeing cream at the Grande Ballroom. In the late 60s. Gave a cigarette to him and lit it for him while on stage. Great memories!
I chose this clip pertaining to Jack Bruce to make my comment. This man was, fundamentally instrumental in the jazz & later ‘rock’ scene. If you were privileged to see & hear him sing then you’ll know what I mean. Jack was full of presence, had a fantastic vocal delivery and was a great bassist/composer. Extremely talented, he continued to elevate his talents through working his craft. With all that talent he had in his bag (as a youngster)pushing himself to the front of the cue to be heard is paramount: thank God Jack had that too, belief in himself. God Bless you, Jackie, & the 58 years of vocal & musical joy you brought me. J. Russell
@@othercarib In our current dimension, me thinks & hopes! There exist several young talents obviously deeply impressed by the talents & resulting audial splendors of that musical era! Multiple genres covered! Hopefully, soon we will experience the culmination of said impressions and talents!
THANK YOU 🙏🏽 Very nice video. I’m too young to have seen Cream but Skips I’m So Glad like Creams version was in my bands set list in 1973. I still love jamming with it today. Songs for a Taylor is one of my favorite albums. I bought a 7 cd & dvd box set last year. It’s got the gig with Mick Taylor Fromm Old Grey show with a bunch of different live CDs. My first show I saw with my wife the Always wanted to do this tour Then the tour with Ginger. Jacks voice and piano playing is deep in my heart Thanks again for the wonderful video ✌🏻
Thanks for honoring the life of one of the all time greatest bassists, vocalists and composers of the 1960's and 70's, the great Jack Bruce! At 1:19, that's a very young Mick Jagger at the microphone.
Thank you your kind words are always much appreciated 🤗💗Yes I look forward to listening to more of his music also, he was so talented 💯 Thanks again so very much for being here 🥰👍
Jack was the best fretless bass player i have ever seen/heard...he was a huge part of Creams sound with his EBS bass...a real bass players bass player...he made playing fretless bass look so easy & sounded so good....RIP Jack Bruce 🪦🎸
For those who haven't seen it, Tony Palmer made a film about Jack called "Rope Ladder to the Moon". It is brilliant and gives a great insight into Bruce's many talents.
I've still got my vinyl LP of Why Dontcha by West, Bruce & Laing. Seen Lesley West with his band in the mid 70's at a small club in Dallas, Tx. I got his autograph there between sets when he stepped outside to smoke a cig. Seemed like a down to earth guy, at the time.
I started on violin 🎻 then to acoustic bass as well. Then guitar and bass, electric! Jack was my hero and I got a Gibson EB like Jack's except long scale because of the acoustic bass. It only had the neck pick up so I added the bridge and eventually put a "Leo's" tail piece on it (of Leo's Music in Oakland). That bass was a monster. I caused the police to be called to many house parties! Thanks Jack! 🎉
What can I say that hasn't been said? A huge influence since 1965 - thx to him I picked up Bass! I even remember hearing about his passing - it was a very sad day 😢 10yrs coming up... RIP Jack Bruce
Jack was am extremely gifted musician,singer,and songwriter.If not for him,I probably never would have picked up a bass guitar.R.I.P. Jack,and thank you.👏👏👏👏
Several of his solo albums are just so underrated! I don't think I have ever gone any longer than 4-6 weeks without listening to at least one of Jack's records!👍
I bought Harmoney Row in 1972 I was 13 played the hell out of that album really though no body else I knew were listening to it and I grew up in the Rock and Roll Capital Cleveland ohio
I have the utmost respect for the level of research you did for this!! Outstanding!! I notice you have elevator music as background. Ugh. Why not have had ... um, er, Jack Bruce music ????!!!!!
Amazing musician with an amazingly diverse and prodigious catalog. I tried to keep track of how many different musicians he collaborated with, but gave up pretty early on because it was getting in the way of enjoying this excellent video. The research alone on this must have taken quite a bit of time and effort. Well done, lad, and thanks!
So enjoying this. I just finished a huge assignment, I’m celebrating with a box of chocolates and watching your videos. These guys were all so hugely talented, they created truly timeless music. Thank you my friend!🤗

Ironically, despite personality/musical conflicts, Jack found himself working with Ginger Baker, a superbly gifted drummer, periodically throughout his lengthy career.
"Harmony Row" was Jack's greatest solo album. I still play it. "West Bruce and Laing" (the first album) is a great addition to Jack's catalog. Jack's autobiography was far and away better than Clapton's or Baker's.
Jack was great .1 of the best.squire entwist n guy from 10 yr after my favs lot greats bak then heck listn 2 mel in 1st 3 grand funk albums ..lots great bak then
Bruce was remarkable, for his tenacity in maintaining a career, despite his heavy drinking and drugging...a shame that he was so irascible, and short-tempered.
I'm from Glasgow, and Jack and my Father shared some mutual friends. At one funeral in the late Seventies-early eighties, Jack was found shooting up in the toilet of the crematorium. Poor guy who's addiction essentially killed him
Alcoholic drug addict why?? What a career what a musician just makes you so sad why wasn't that enough same thing with Gary Moore musical world could really use these guys around Sting Mick Jagger have their health better figured out had a ton of therapy to help them deal with all of it Elton David Gilmour Brian May same thing but they managed to survive have had to do lots of mental health work Great video great series I've watched about ten of these when I should be doing something else!! thanks so much
Thank you so much for your kind words 🥰 Yes it's really sad to see the decline of some of these talented and amazing artists 😥 I guess the pressures of the industry and fame are a lot to handle 😞 Thanks again, I appreciate you 😊👍
i'd like to know what songs he used the danelectro longhorn on. i know felix papalardi played one, as did jesse colin young in youngbloods - fp produced. i had a '60, but was shot by the time i bought it in 80's...i gave it to joey spampinato, still with nrbq at the time... regards. g'bless.
I saw Jack in 1969 at the Fillmore West in San Francisco as Jack Bruce and friends... not so good.. they were just jamming but all great musicians. As a bass player I learned a lot from him on many of the records he played on.. brilliant.. but his lifelong drug addict that really turned me off to him for many years. RIP Jack
Jack Bruce didn't leave the Graham Bond Organisation -- Ginger Baker fired him! But Jack felt that was unfair since he was one of the band's founders, and he would just show p and play, even though he was "fired". 😁
The joke is John Lennon was asked if Ringo was the best drummer in the World, John replied he isn't even the best drummer in the Beatles. Well Eric Clapton isn't even the best guitarist in Cream, Jack Bruce's bass playing is better than Clapton's amazing guitar.
There's no truth in this rumour. John never said this. It was a joke by a journalist. Proof? John had Ringo as drummer on the Plastic Ono Band album, which tells you all you need to kbow about what John thought of Ringo's drumming.
Finally someone knows the Truth! Right you are Sir. Not only was it never said, it was never true. Ringo's a really really good drummer Jeff Lynne, Dave Stewart,Rundgren and many more marvel at Ringo's pocket . His tyle. "Rain"- insane. Ticket to Ride " "..Rita " " Good Morning ". "Get Back " ⁉️ What do Ringo Starr and Jimi Hendrix have in common? 🎸Hendrix played the Right handed guitar his Dad gave him- as a lefty - String's and all.! 🥁Ringo's a lefty playing a righty drum set his Grandmother' bought the young , often ill, Richard Starkey. ( I've read she insisted! He play righty .. something to do with being homosexual...? .. different era...Anyway). Ringo has a sound. Is it going to is it going to replace Neil Peart if Geddy & Alex tour? Doubtful... Neil Peart drumming for the Beatles? Even the insanely awesome Professor...No way. Drummer fit. It's a big deal and I should know I'm playing for 30 years. "Yellow submarine" or" Fre will" Free Will is just slightly more complicated.... It's weird. Zeppelin,ThexWho Cream Billy Joel...on and on Charlie Watts not an easy Drummer... If you're really playing the way he plays it Beast of Burden.. tricky s..t there. Swinging the beat around. F...Pro Tools. Swing it. Ringo had it. English drummers swung then. Levon Helm.. America Drummer swug. Sounds simple... It ain't.🍄 They had a Sound. Unique signature sound . A way of playing beats that was unique to them . Playing with space and time. #1 job of the Drummer? Support the song • The music before you. Ironically.. Best way to get fired as a drummer ? Twll the band you've written a new song to work on. Ha! Not Ringo though. In a band with the 2 most prolific songwriters maybe ever. Ringo was allowed. Ringo supported 20 #1 hits in 8 years. Still a record. Ok . I'll stop . I was just showing you guys got me excited🎉 Whatever your opinion or mine....music I personal . Subjective Right? I ❤ you guys even talking,/ writing about it. During COVID lockdowns- 1,209 hrs in 5 months in my studio on drums Almost 2 weeks on "Dear Prudence" The High Hat, snare, sticking techniques, ...

Cream sound perfect. Great memories 1970s Cream South end Mull Kintyre owners Sanda Island. Kintyre sound 70s rocks on Davaar nights sing along party other locations moonlight on the sand Atlantic waves crashing in 'Kintyre mist fun ok!. We can only keep memories continue 'music what we did never dies.
So he broke up Cream due to constant fights with the drummer but then kept coming back to that drummer for multiple new bands throughout his career…Must have been a good drummer.
What was with Jack and Ginger? Always fussing and fighting ,yet always getting together again foe One More Show. I've seen a lot of marriages like that.
Cream was my favorite group of the late '60s, with three superior instrumentalists. Jack's voice and songwriting took it all to a higher plane, speaking somehow to my inner self.

What a beautiful memory to have, thank you for sharing 🥰
You're so lucky
Simply put, Jack was one of the greatest all around musician/composers of our time.
Jack's bass playing, especially his monster performances on live recordings with Cream, hugely influenced my own ambitions as a bass player.
Thanks for tis great offering of Jack's life story.

The Years from 1966 to 1987 were the most incredible time period with so many talented bands emerging on the scene, sadly it will never happen again.
I totally agree - to be revisited In a future dimension perhaps. Energy doesn't disappear but reinvents.

Neil Peart drumming for the Beatles?
Even the insanely awesome Professor...No way.
Drummer fit.
It's a big deal and I should know I'm playing for 30 years.
"Yellow submarine" or" Fre will"
Free Will is just slightly more complicated....
It's weird.

Charlie Watts not an easy Drummer... If you're really playing the way he plays it
Beast of Burden.. tricky s..t there.
Swinging the beat around.

English drummers swung then.
Levon Helm.. America Drummer swug.

Unique signature sound .
A way of playing beats that was unique to them .
Playing with space and time.

Support the song •
The music before you.
Ironically..
Best way to get fired as a drummer ?
Twll the band you've written a new song to work on.
Ha!
Not Ringo though.
In a band with the 2 most prolific songwriters maybe ever.

Kintyre sound 70s rocks on Davaar nights sing along party other locations moonlight on the sand Atlantic waves crashing in 'Kintyre mist fun ok!. We can only keep memories continue 'music what we did never dies.

Nice
B L T was his best album
So he broke up Cream due to constant fights with the drummer but then kept coming back to that drummer for multiple new bands throughout his career…Must have been a good drummer.
I thought the same thing tbh. Must of been a sort of love / hate relationship. Thanks for your comment and for watching 😀
I helped him with some gear. On 48th st. He was playing fret less at this point
Which one of them would you choose for your band?
a) Jack Bruce
b) Lemmy Kilmister
Eric clapton looks so ridiculous with his perm during the cream era !
So many unsuccessful record albums...!
What was with Jack and Ginger? Always fussing and fighting ,yet always getting together again foe One More Show. I've seen a lot of marriages like that.
So true lol Thanks for watching 😁
Jack was apparently hard to work with
Jack
