    There will never be anyone else quite like Jack Bruce. His ability to sing n play bass and improvise all at once was a gift! I've never seen or heard anyone else quite like him. Are you listen Rick Beato?

    He always said Hendrix was a force of nature, but him was a type of nature too.
    He was a beast

    This sounds remarkably good for a BBC recording. The whole session should be released officially

    This is so good, virtuosos who managed to listen to each other and play for the song without overshadowing each other, this is really the ultimate level of musicianship in popular music 👏

    Remembering Jack Bruce born on May 14, 1943. He was a Scottish musician. He gained popularity as the primary lead vocalist and ‍bassist ‍of rock band Cream. After the group disbanded in 1968, he pursued a solo career and also played with several bands. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Bruce

    A more elsborate and complex version.I liked the guitarplay,the voice sets more more melodic in.
    The song felt more personal.I ofter was afraid that there might be some dark world behind me,even at schoolage,but after all I prefered to avoid tensions and never had really to keep down anything.
    Once I thought that there was a lightened had above me.I don't know when.6-10 years old.Sometimes I wondered,could it have been my grandfather.So it must have been between 10 and 12.
    Later writing about,20-40 years later I heard a remarkable clear voice saying I didn't had to fear for .I don't belief it was God.Maybe some freemasonstrick?It seemed stronger than my imagination.
    Later they really called me crazy.They called it an endurong psychosis.
    Well,I have never been psychotic.I only feared for whatever reason I could become crazy.There was indeed a short period some 40 ,50 years ago with several real tensions prevailing.It wasn't fine,but I could keep it down.
    I experience the song as a personal message,but sometimes as a social metaphor for a period of revolution and war.
    And sometimes I also considet what is called entrepreneurship as a more or less psychotic state of mind,
    but also the whole complex of the neodarwinistic political and economic liberal ideology,so many religions and stubborn thatcherist middle class lies as well as driven revolutionaries.
    It's not difficult to be 'normal' ,but you never can be really free.

      Ik bezocht toen een psychiater.Hij was bekend met de familie.
      Ik zag hem als een soort initiator.
      Ik kwam in een soort geleide associatie.Ik noemde de naam van Wolfgang Abendroth.Een socialistisch theoreticus wiens naam zo sterk contrasteerde met het ochtendrood.Zoals een professor een keer opmerkte :'Nomen est omen," ,toen ik me voorstelde.
      Hij vroeg wat er door me heen ging.
      " Iets demonisch" zei ik..
      Ik ervoer zijn aanwezigheid zo.Ik had het gevoel dat ik hem kon aanvliegen.I kept it down.Misschien voelde ik me verraden,dat hij geen hoeder,'saviour' bleek.
      Hij vroeg of ik driftbuien had.
      Ik zei dat ik alleen maar gecontroleerd kwaad kon zijn,maar mijn moeder....
      Er waren wat kleine dingetjes waarop ik me concentreerde ter afleiding.
      Het was een soort ontlading die over me heen kwam.
      Ik realiseerde me dat ik er alleen voor stond.
      To make it by myself.
      Zoals mijn toenmalige huisarts eerder al eens had gezegd :
      "Jij geneest jezelf,"
