Hi Mr Jack Bruce it's a cold wet and windy day here in Jo'burg...reminds me of Scotland. Your music's keeping me company while i work in my wee home office. when i discovered Songs for a Tailor i felt like i'd tripped over a secret rare unique musical gem! Thanks for never compromising , and for using your God-given talent to it's full potential and for always making TRUE music. Janie xxxxxxx

Hello, Jack. Don't know if you'll read this or not, but just wanted to say thank you for all the great music! Also, we happen to have a common friend..Mr. Larry Hartke. Larry has taken great care of me for about 15 year now. I used to play bass for Blues artist Debbie Davies for almost 9 years. Debbie played guitar for the late, great Albert Collins, and she was once also a member of Maggie Mayall & the Cadillacs (John Mayall's wife's band). I know John too, and I keep in touch with his bass player Hank from time-to-time. Anyway, I hope that someday we might meet up through our friend Larry at some point and perhaps chat a bit. I've always been a fan, and I want to thank you also for being a big influence on my playing as well. Hope all is well with you! My best, --AJ (^:~

Mr Bruce In 1967 me and 8 of my closest friends all of us from the streets of Boston, each bought 4 dollar ticket nosebleed section furthest row from the stage to see Cream at Brandeis University in Waltham, Massachusetts. We were 16 years old and still in High School. The Band was miraculously late for the show thank you, God and, although you guys were scheduled to begin at 8:00 PM, you didn't arrive until 3 o'clock in the morning. Of course by then we were situated right in the front row!!! I guess that I was less than 20 feet from you as you guys began to tune your instruments up. Mr. Bruce I have never spoken to any of my idols before and, I suppose, that I have precious few of them anyway. I think that some day you will read this and I guess I want to be as eloquent and accurate as I can be when I say that you and the rest of the Band simply changed my life forever. I am not a rock and roll groupie or any other kind of ass kisser and actually, before that night anyway, my ability to appreciate music was much less than what I wanted it to be at that stage of my life. Thanks to you that was all about to change at 3 in the morning in an obscure New England town at a college that ordinarily would not allow me and my chums to even linger about. Then all of a sudden "1,2,3,4, You thought the leaden winter would bring you down forever..." enter a wall of sound of major chords and the cracking of a snare drum that must have been the size of the Universe itself and little Jimmie McDevitt's entire philosophy of life and changed. Much for the better, Mr. Bruce. Of course I was sitting closer to you and your amplifiers than the others and I have never tired of telling this story over the years. "Hey Captain Jim tell this guy about that Cream concert that you snuck outa' the house to see back in the Stone Ages." Mr. Bruce thank you for that experience, seriously. This Internet is the best invention since the wheel isn't it? I am just a click away from reliving that night every day and actually having a chance to communicate something as important as this to you, well it is just unbelievable It must be a very holy and humbling experience to have this kind of effect on people, Mr. Bruce. You have handled it very well over the years. Saying a simple thank you seems so very insignificant right now, Mr. Bruce, but having seen and heard you speak I know that it is enough.

I just read in Bass Player about your aspirations to write a symphony. I am a bass player and songwriter who has admired your work for years. About 10 years ago I wrote my first symphony. You will find it to be a rewarding experience. I will probably never hear an orchestra play mine in my lifetime but you will hear yours and so will I. I am looking forward to it!

How lovely to hear you're working on a symphony. You should get Lang Lang to create another You Tube orchestra to premiere it. Classical orchestras are being revitalized by such endeavors - the music director of our own Baltimore Symphony has led the group in everything from a Radiohead medley to a concert with alt classical group "Time for Three". Glad to hear you're part of the trend, though you no doubt presaged it long ago with your art songs such as "There is a Forest". Whatever the style of your new piece, I bet it will be infused with your intensely romantic spirit - can't wait, can't wait, can't wait to hear it!

I wish you a Happy Christmas and Happy 2010, Jack, and...thanks for your appearances with Robin and Gary. I pursue the live dvd of the Nijmegen, Holland concert and I admit that it is beyond my expectations. The setlist is impeccable. Just Another Day, She's Not The One...new rock masterpieces, Jack Bruce, seems like the 60s was back and a new rock trio appeared and released a new hit. Congratulations! Psychedelia and full-bodied bass playing are still working, 'really cooking' as north americans say. A suggestion: it would be interesting if you released a dvd of picturesque facts of your career, weird things, good things, your most memorable improvisations and songs, and so on...What do you think about it? My best wishes. Carlos Bill, bass player, after watching the Seven Moons Live in my dvd.

I feel this recording would help him through this time. I have since found an LP to send him. The long and short of this entry is will this LP ever be released on CD? It is some of your finest work.

Hi Jack, I was lucky enough to see you at Hunter College and at the Garden just before Cream broke up. I remember Eric coming out with his Firebird 1 (I have one also)in his tuxedo and high top sneakers. You guys were the epitome of cool. Your voice has always radiated in my head as one of the greatest voices of our generation. I also had an opportunity to see you at Radio City Music Hall with Leslie and Corky. In 1985, I became friends with Leslie (I'm in the jewelry business, and we swapped jewelry for lessons), and we remained friends until a few years ago. Learned my vibrato and slide from him. Moody guy, we've since stopped talking. I think it's great that Malcom is becoming a part of the group, but, it's you that should be there. I understand your health has not been up to par, and it's a shame not to be able to hear you with them, because it was magical what you've done. I wish you a speedy recovery, as you need to be out there as you are so gifted and missed. Out in the Fields is one of my favorite songs of all time. I hope Malcom has a good time with Leslie and Corky. Corky is a good guy. I played with him and Leslie once, and it's truly amazing how well a gifted drummer can make your playing better. I hope you warned Malcom about Leslie's mood swings. That guy goes from being the nicest guy one minute, and the next.... I'm 55, and started playing bass when I was 12. You've always been an influence. I have an old Danelectro longhorn and a 66 eb3. Of course, I can't play like you, but a lot of people tell me my attack is similar, and I consider that a large complement. I hope Malcom has a great time, and I wish you good health.
