Cream Bassist Jack Bruce Dead at 71
Rumors swirled, and his demise was circulated earlier this year, but this time it’s for real. One of my all time favorite bands, they could sound like the wheels were going to fly off any second, but they steamed right on and on. Kick ass, and one regret is that I never saw them live. Listen to Crossroad live and you can hear a pin drop. Respect and awe.
Cream was an amazing collaboration of talent and style and the original Power Trio. Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce filled stadiums and AOR airwaves in the late 60’s. For only being together for under 3 years, their repertoire is astounding. Rolling Stone report.
Politician at the zenith of the band.
RIP Jack. I heard ya.
