Hello Jack, Just finished Harry Shapiro's Jack Bruce-Composing Himself - a wonderful insight into your life and what a fancinating journey. Your comments on the highs and lows of the world of music were a great read and no doubt most of us fans have spiritually traveled along with you. I admire all your musical ventures and have been fortunate to see you and the various band formations . . . withe Blues & Husband in '93, BBM '94, with Bernie in '95, The Cuicoland Express in 2001, the maginificent May 2nd Cream Reunion show and finally the two Scotland shows last year with Trower & Husband - unfortunately didn't get an opportunity to witness the great WBL. Any way I highly recommend Shapiro's book which also includes every recording and concert you've performed. I look forward to seeing you again ... KEEP WELL!

Hi Jack, Hope all is well with you, I just wanted to send you a note thanking you for all that you've done and continue to do in the world of music. I have been a bass player in various local bands here in the states for over 20 years and you were, and are, my main inspiration as a musician! I have followed your work and it is nothing short of spectacular! I've read and viewed many interviews with you over the years and in addtion to being a musical genius, you seem to be an incredible human being as well. You got me hooked on Warwick basses too, they are wonderful basses! So, hope all is well with you and once again, thanks:)

I think the following is a valid distinction. The two early '80s albums with Robin Trower were good, of course, very good, but, perhaps because there was only one song co-written, and there were no live performances, Bruce and Trower (Trower and Bruce?) felt like a collaboration--of two supremely talented musicians obviously, but, just that, a collaboration. From the very beginning, though, "Seven Moons" sounded like a band. The live album does too. I know both men have had successful solo careers for four decades, are leaders, and are engaged in personal plans and projects, but, well. it's just a thought.

Late happy birthday Mr Bruse. Always loved your music. I played bass in bands in 67-73 and they used to call me salty. Dont know why. You alway played different from others. I tried to learn from that. Melodic, half ,sometimes full lead bass playing. Thanks for all the music. JK.

Jack - perhaps a more unusual entry from (you could say, distorted feedback). At a time in my life when I am looking for inspiration, your story has indeed provided just that for me. Like you, I grew up in Glasgow (Shawlands). Like you once were, I have been told that I need a new liver and am currently on the waiting list for a transplant. I know you had this done years ago and it really is an inspiration to me to see you doing so well after all this time. I am keeping a daily blog (davidkallin.wordpress.com) of my thoughts etc as I wait on the list and hope to keep it going as I go through a successful recuperation. Incidentally, it was suggested that I contact you by my brother (Ivor Kallin) who is a friend of your son Malcolm. I'm not quite sure what I hope to achieve by making you aware of my situation - other than to know there are people out there who have done so well for so long - may you continue for many years to come in good health. P.S. They don't still serve Liver & Onions in hospital, do they? Hope not, I don't like onions!

I was walking through Costco a few years back and heard White Room coming from somewhere in the store. I found the TV that was playng the video and chills went up and down my spine. I stood there mesmerized as I saw Jack performing one of my all time favorites. I wish Cream would tour the USA. I was 9 when they broke up.

Hi Jack, I've just watched you on Jools Holland, sat at my desk at work. It's really good to see you looking so well. I doubt you'd remember, but many years ago I went Pebmarsh primary school with your girls and think of them often whenever I look back on school (it was such a tiny school then, it felt just like a big family really.) I just wanted to get in touch to say I hope you're all really well and happy living in the beautiful Suffolk countryside, so hopefully you might get to see this. All the best, Marion

Hi, For some reason I was distracted when Around The Next Dream came out. What an outstanding album. I suspect the marketing was non-existant at the time, as befell many artists, look at Miller Anderson! (who?) If you guys ever feel like writing some new material it will excel. That's three of the most gifted guys around and it really isn't dated at all. Thankyou for the re-issue.

Happy birthday, Double Doctor Bruce! I am just finishing up your biography, and have enjoyed it all the more because I can actually listen to the referenced music (such as with Lifetime, Buddy Guy, Mick Taylor) all on You Tube. Kind of like being in my college music history classes. Speaking of music history...I loved that you started off a concert by playing Bach on your cello. I'd have given a lot to have seen that, as I can see your classical impulses in everything you do, even the "hard" stuff. Any chance your daughter can take a video of you playing something from a Bach Cello Suite? Perhaps for the pledgers? Keep healthy, and again, happy happy birthday!

Happy Birthday, Jack!!! Thank you for the gifts you have brought to us fans and the fact that 2005 became "The Year of Cream." Whenever I'm down I put on your music and play it extremely loud on ADS 710 speakers.........I was the guy, from the Cream message boards who under the song suggestion thread who came up with QMS cover of Buffy Sainte-Marie's "Codiene." It would be a perfect match for your voice. Who knows? Maybe I will hear you play it in Seattle when you team up with Robert Cray!! The Phanerotyme Ranger, ---rob lyda

Jackster, The Happiest of Birthdays, My Boy!! Waxing Artistic- the Flaming Arrow of your Ancient Voice and Passionate rendering of the lower frequencies of the Spectrum have enthralled the masses....and myself..throughout the decades...no small feat...and the fact that you have made it, with Glee, to another year of Opportunity to Inspire gives us all a sense of renewal...and let's us see that All is Right with the World, afterall. Carry On....and Love, ROB THE DRUMMER P.S. We dedicate this Birthday to the memory of our shared Brother, Bruce Gary....who is forever enshrined in our collective matrix.

Hello Jack. Between you and I there is an 8 year gap, which in my youth was vast. Man, you opened up my head [ and many others ] to how it should be done. Virtuoso , soloist or side man your skill as a musician is of a quality second to none. You and others of that time took music beyond jazz or avante garde and opened a door through which many have passed. Not all made it. Commerce ruins talent. Lost inside a song. Simon.

Hi Jack, I have to say I think you and your music are brilliant. When it comes to the bass you are unmatched. I have only just heard the Cream days and a few years beyond so far...I look forward to hearing the rest - ideally live!! Keep on doing what you do so well Jess

Just dropping by to wish Jack a very happy 67th birthday! I'm a life-long fan. Jack is a musical legend and yet I still feel that he is under-appreciated when compared to some of his contemporaries who are not as talented or influential as Jack. Jack is the creator of some of the most amazing, beautiful music ever made - Harmony Row, Songs for a Tailor, More Jack Than God, A Question of Time and on and on! God Bless you Jack! Bob Clayton

Dear Jack, They speak on web that you will join the Hippie Fest again. I was in one Florida gig 2008. The happ ening itself was foolish. Only Jack + band was great. Totally different from the other "bands" As You Said I liked much. Martti

Jack, can't wait to hear about the exciting new project you're involved with. It would be great if it brought you over to the United States as there is a whole generation of people who need to learn more about your music first hand. Wishing you the best.

Jack Bruce, I know you probably never read this stuff, but well... I've played the bass guitar for about seven years, since I was 9. But I can truly say that I hadn't realy understood the instrument before I started to fannaticaly listen to Cream. The way your lines and compositions make me feel, sometimes like a flowing river as in Tales of Brave Ulysses, Theme From an Imaginary Western, Folk Song and many more, others like a dinaussaur through a busy city street as in I'm So Glad... you helped me turn my sincere but sort of stupid (hahaha) way of playing into a bluesy thunderous roar like your live performances (I actually bought myself an EB-3 to look and feel like the grand master Bruce). I honestly thank you.

HELLO, JACK, FIRST I WANT TO WISH YOU A BELATED HAPPY BIRTHHDAY, AND MANY MORE TO COME. HAVE BEEN ENJOYING THE CREAM REUNION CD FROM 2005, GREAT TO HEAR YOU SINGING "WE'RE GOING WRONG" ONE OF MY FAVORITE TUNES FROM DISRAELI GEARS, AND THE VERSION OF "BORN UNDER A BAD SIGN" THAT OPENS DISC 2 IS EXCELLENT, I RECENTLY SANG IT AT THE BLUES JAM I APPEARED AT IN CHICAGO AT MORSELAND, A GREAT BLUES VENUE ON THE NORTH SIDE. I HAVE WORKED IN A COOL HARMONICA SOLO IN THE MIDDLE, AND I FINISHED THE LAST CHORUS LIKE YOU DID, "BAD LUCK AND TROUBLES, THAT'S MY MIDDLE NAME!!!!" AS I HAVE SAID BEFORE, YOU HAVE BEEN A GREAT INSPIRATION TO ME AS A SINGER AND HARMONICA PLAYER, WITHOUT A DOUBT I HAVE ALWAYS FELT YOU HAVE ONE OF THE GREAT VOICES IN ROCK AND BLUES MUSIC. I HAVE ALSO RECENTLY SEEN SOME OF THE VIDEOS ON YOU TUBE WITH YOU AND MICK TAYLOR PERFORMING ON THE OLD GRAY WHISTLE TEST, THE VERSIONS OF MORNING STORY, KEEP IT DOWN AND WITHOUT A WORD WERE OUTSTANDING. LOVE CARLA BLEY'S KEYBOARD WORK. AGAIN, HAPPY BIRTHDAY AND LOOK FORWARD TO YOU COMING TO CHICAGO AGAIN, YOUR FRIEND IN THE BLUES, RON BERETTA

May I ask a couple of obscure discography questions? I once personally asked John Gorman to confirm that you actually played bass on Lily the Pink, and he very clearly said "No" and that actually it was Graham Nash playing bass!! ?? You co-wrote the song Sonny Boy Williamson with Paul Jones. Did you play bass on the track (which is the b-side of a Paul Jones solo single, and covered later by Mike Bloomfield and Al Kooper)? Did you play on any other Manfred Mann tracks apart from the Instrumental Asylum EP and Pretty Flamingo? Thanks for your time, and especially for your playing and songs. Maximum respect and love from Mike Lake

Hi Jack, I'd like to say there's many fans here in Brazil who admired and follow your works since Cream in the 60's. I'm one of them and I'm bass player because of you. Thank you very much, David

Great site!Just listened to the BBC shows;excellent! BTW, the lyrics section for "Harmony Row" runs off the page and I did not see a lyric on the Songs for a Tailor for "Tickets to a Waterfall". Jack, nobody has had as varied and eclectic a career as you. Certainly nobody who has constantly maintained such quality music, regardless of the setting. Thank you for "Harmony Row",if nothing else!

Hello Jack, Mark here from Tamarac, Florida. Was reading the paper a few weeks ago and saw that you are coming to south Florida around August of this year in Hollywood, Florida at the Hard Rock Cafe with Rare Earth and a few other classic rockers and was wondering if Ginger Baker, Eric Clapton or Robin Trower might make a guest apperance with you. Love all of your music with Cream, BBM and with Robin Trower. Was also wondering if you and Robin Trower were going to tour the United States any time soon. Also have a problem in getting you CDS in the record stores here in South Florida. I wish there was a way you can help find your CDS. Please take care and hope to see you at the Hard Rock Cafe soon and with your new band the Cuicoland Express here in Florida and Bridgeport CT.

Jack, I'm already in your guestbook. I have only one great wish, and that is to perform with you once before I die. You don't know me and I fully understand if you think this is rediculous, but remember, never tell yoor mother she's out of tune! You have given me so much in my musical career, standing on the corner watching all the cars go by (yes, I know the words are Pete's). I have followed your music for so may years, Victoria Sage, Under the Volcano, Rope Ladder, etc. I have dreaned of giving musical voice to the great hoe you have given to so many as have ther ears to hear you. There is really no more for me to say in a guestbook. Time's right for clearout. CLEAROUT!!! Lenny
