I saw him perform this in a tiny club in Toronto (late 80s), so emotional, I couldn't believe it I was sitting 6 feet from this man. "Thank God, somebody bought my records", was what he said, after a few songs as I was singing harmony :)
Beautiful song, tears in my eyes hough. I wonder what Clem would've sounded like doing the solo. RIP Jack, thank you for sharing your amazing talent with us,
Boy do I miss Jack. I saw him with Leslie West in a bar in the 1980s that was far beneath their statue. The music had changed. But I didn't care because I was within 10 yards of these guys and happy as could be. Although Jack was far more versatile and talented than the Cream gig allowed, he, Eric and Ginger loved and respected each other between fights and created a legendary band that pushed each to greater heights. If you get a chance, read Jack's book "Composing Himself."
I saw this line up at Hofstra University on Long Island in the early 80's . What a band! David Sancious,who used to play with Bruce Springsteen, and Billy Cobham who played with John Mclaughlin in the Mahavishnu Orchestra This song represents Jack Bruce more than anything. That's why it's so good!
@@rodgermarcus6011 quite alright. I should have realized if you were at the show you would know that. I got to this video by rolling stones article and videos. The story of sancious' musical history is amazing.
Billy Cobham (Mahavishnu Orchestra, George Duke, Stanley Clarke, Miles Davis) Spectrum is the best album I have ever heard. It was revolutionary for me, like Sgt. Peppers was.
Felix Pappalardie seeing a historical movement of forging ahead into unknown territory...like musicians heading out in the 60's into the unknown environment.?
Hate to be a stinker, but that guitar solo was a bit over the top, and the tone was not really suitable for the song. A good point of reference, not necessarily for that much emulation, is Leslie West's more lyrical approach on an ax that has a fuller sound, yeah, like a Les Paul.
Surprised to see the real blues man former Colosseum axe man just playing the bass. Clem should had played the solo ala Colosseum style... What a disappointment. I´ll go back to Colosseum, once again.
I was lucky to see this line-up several times. Wonderful. Thanks, gentlemen. Life-changing.
A legend.
What a talent Jack Bruce is. Any instrument he touches is magic

He had a great sense of humour did Jack
I can actually hear him saying that to you

What a band!!!

I'm crying 😭
so beautiful ❤️
This was an awesome band, saw them in New York at the Bottom Line absolutely powerful show still remember being blown away.
My brother in law played bass in David Sancious and Tone from 1974-1978.
Unbelievable guitar solo by David Sancious
I saw this band, David Sanchez played a great version of this song then,too!
@@rodgermarcus6011 Sancious
This piece starts out very unassumingly melodic, elevates with excitement and anticipation, and finishes so beautifully. Bravo!
@@pegmarinello3188 sorry autocorrect did that

Love the entire song but talk about the ultimate lead up to a killer blues guitar solo!
Brilliant!!!
every time I hear Cream should not have broken up I submit this song would never have possible happened if they didn't

electricity through my body...

Amazing version. Who is in the backing band? Matt NYC
Clem Clempson - Bass on this but normally guitar
David Sancious - guitar also played keyboard at the begining of the gig
Billy Cobham - Drums
Jack looking a bit rough here but still great
Nice guitar indeed, but not Leslie....
Leslie West is one of the unsung God's of music. Few musicians moved me like him.
It's a great song , but it's just not the same song without Leslie West.

GJ, Maybe you couldt have done it better, but now it is too late and no one have called you in 1980 to play in this band as I know
@@carstenrydzy1823 That's OK. I've clearly played you without even trying.
Agreed 100%
I thought it was OTT as well
I wish Cream did this song the lead sounds perfect just like something Eric would play but to late it has such atmosphere not this guitarist tho 😁
