According to his official web site, we lost Jack today.

One of my favorites, with Robin Trower and Bill Lordan:

Very sad.
One of the most influential players in my life; right there next to JPJ.
I've played in bands and on sessions for over 40 years and these two might not be the most technical but do have the most rock soul IMO.
Beautiful melodies against a rock or blues backdrop.
And I never saw him play with Cream or solo…

"Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days.
Those were their ways, miracles everywhere are they now?
They're gone.
Those were their ways, yes they were, those were their ways.
Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days."


RIP with all the other greats we have lost Jack.

Saw him with Corky Lange once in NYC at a small club.
Bass power baby.

Bummer, I liked him with Trower also. Cream wasn't so bad either.

I loved Jack Bruce's work, a real fan of his with Trower as well, seems only a few are familiar with BLT.

"Truce" brings back other memories.

Trower / Bruce contraction.......

West, Bruce and Lange was one of my fav collections.
