@@catherinecrow5662 It was indeed ‘like no one had ever heard before.’ A complete surprise of a style on some fairly usual drums. I had never heard that before. And impeccable time.
He actually does have a good voice, which is why I never understood why he sounded so bad durin' the Royal Albert Hall show in '68, I don't know if he was tired, sick and or wasted on drugs and booze, but I couldn't listen without cringing.
If you listen to the background vocals on Pretty Flamingo by Manfred Mann you can actually recognize Bruce's voice pretty clearly if you know how he sounds.
Not just a few love his voice. I fell in love with the band Cream when I was 13 in 1968. Jack's voice was a big part of that, and defined Cream for me. Not to underestimate the brilliant playing of all three of them!
It's startling how Jack can look handsome one moment, then seedy, unhealthy, and almost homely at another--yet blazingly hot throughout. Sometimes he looks so thin and frail you just want to invite him in for milk and cookies. But then, with that passionate voice and driving bass, he is commanding, and you know he'll pull you into the bedchamber where for hours you'll tangle like minks.
I love Jack. Sad to see how "out of it" he was in the video. It was well known his struggles with addiction. Yet, when the music starts, he becomes the monster musician he is!

This is a much funkier version I think mainly due to John Marshall and Chris Spedding. Its the best one.Pity they didn't take it further.... and let us see the whole thing.

Second best version ever? You decide.Does this beat Bruce /Gallagher /O' Neill? In both versions the drummer outshines everyone.😁❤👍 So it boils down to Brendan O'Neill V John Marshall. Votes please. I sure as hell can't decide!😏

WTF was it with film makers in the 70's. They'd do the "zoom in/out" with the beat, get close-ups so tight you can see nose hairs, be out of focus...totally sucked.

Yep. Totally.

Whew, he looks stoned out of his gourde there. He was one of the finest voices and musicians of the 2nd half of the 20th century.
He looks CRAZY WACKED but dam I always loved this brilliant musican and that Voice! Best Bassist
I miss him
We All Miss Him.
He was simply🙏 the greatest full range musician
Even though he's a rock musician, he always reminds me of a 17th century English poet.
Wheels of Fire..One of the top 5 albums in the history of rock n roll
I’m just guessing I’ve listened 100+ times.
Disraeli Gears. IMO.
Love the song , the humour behind it's cynicism AND knowing Jack liked to hotbox a joint too.
This is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen 🤣❤️ High as a kite

He doesn’t seem out of it to me.
he’s just baked lol
I don't think he was "out of it," just stoned. And funny.
No wonder he died at 71...
Jack was a beast of a bass player and as a singer he had a great set of pipes.

Damn, that was GOOD. I was deeply saddened when it ended.
Jack Bruce. Truly a vibrato I hear deeply, even now, 50 years after….
What proves his GREAT voice is the LACK of vibrato, he could "carry a tune" singing clear, pure tone, not that stinking "operatic" modulation.
I agree with you. His vibrato was fast and surprising, in a rock world of mostly untrained voices something rarely heard. It moves me.

Jon Marshall drives this with a funky jazzy touch on that lovely Hayman recording kit.
Sweet..I caught a buzz from this
The bloody fingers make this 10x harder
Stoner rock from Jack Bruce and his genius
Lol
Yes
Sad it wasn't longer, but WOW, fucking Amazing, how could Bruce be so fucked up & still play
Notice the taped fingers? he'd play till they were bloody ..or , despite ,that they became blistered & bloody .the show went on.
Practice
just like stevie ray vaughn, fingers would be bleeding & he would have his guitar tech tape them up@@parallaxcontinuum7898

Rope ladder to the moon?
he doesn't have a Scottish accent here, he did later...strange.
:) I think a lot of it wherever you happen to live and who you hang around with at the time to influence the accent as well as doing silly voices :D
You can hear his real accent in the back, but he is hamming up an English accent here mostly.
Not really.Since London is more class conscious ,a Glaswegian might be more prone to softening their brogue ,to stay gainfully employed.
@@Meddled yeah he sounds totally Scottish accentwise underneath it
He was actually a very well spoken Scot. More "Kaylevinsayed" than Govan. We don't all sound like Billy Connellly. lol 😉
John Marshall on drums then joined soft machine
Thank you sooo much Buddy
Always and forever, my hero!
WOW WOW WOW ! WHAT A GEM ! THE BEST !

looks like Jon Marshall on drums
Note the injured and bandaged fingers 😮😮😮😮
..schön harte und stoned 😁👍🏻
Jack Bruce just let it rip...He had no governor on his engine..
Jah bless
What is all the white stuff on his bass?!
Was thinking the same thing.. maybe a huge accumulation of dust? Even though he played it hard it usually had dust on it
sonic heaven
What's up with Jack's fingers?
probably punched some mirror or some sort of glass from the looks of it
He had an accident riding a motorcycle some days before filming
Still played bass. He's tuff.
@@loaxelsson1394 thanks
Constantly pressing on bass strings can cause fingers to bleed.
