Music Review: Long Overdue, Exceptional Collection
Rating: 5 Stars
I have been a Jack Bruce fan for almost 40 years. His work in Cream started a life long love affair with the blues for me. He is a great song writer, a great singer, and one of the 10 best blues/rock bass players ever. However, his story is far greater the Cream. This collection really does justice to his long and illustrious career. It includes a disk of his work before Cream, a disk of Cream (with a couple of cuts from his Manfred Mann days) and 4 disks of post Cream music. What really stands out is the range of his music and the range of other musicians represented here. Zappa, John McLaughlin, John Mayall, Leslie West, Carla Bley, Billy Cobham, Clapton, Ginger Baker... The list goes on. It is extraordinary to consider what a long and varied career Bruce has had and the extensive contributions that he has made to rock, blues, and jazz. It is is an inspiring look at the career of an inspiring musician. It is hard to go wrong with this one. If only there was a DVD to go with it!Music Review: 40 years of thinking outside the box.

What a great set of music from one of Scotlands finest. From the earliest recordings on this set(1962) to the latest(2003), you get a nice sampling of Jack Bruces' varied tastes. The man never sits still. Never repeats himself. Few "rock" musicians have diversified themselves as much as Jack has over the years. To me, one of the most imazing things about his career, is how much he was involved in bands that changed peoples thinking about music. Coming from a jazz background, he introduced jazz to rock via Cream's legendary improvisational jamming. Then he turns around and through the Tony Williams Lifetime introduces rock to jazz. And never receives the credit for it. This set touches upon all of this. A wonderful overview of an amazing career. Now we wait for the live music set!!Music Review: Jack Bruce is the Bass Player, but also a great songwriter

Jack Bruce is a true musician. He has never seemed to be concerned with fame and fortune. Maybe the success of Cream allowed him to be the eclectic musician. Or maybe he is just a true musician, more interested in the journey than the destination. This box set seems to prove that he follows his muse and remains just as fresh now as in the 60s. He is always inspired and this box is worth getting. If you can't afford this box then start with the Songs for a Taylor CD.
Music Review: LEGEND
