Jack Bruce's New Album Inspired By Post-Doom Band

File:Jack Bruce.jpgCream icon Jack Bruce says the inspiration for his latest solo album came from a Seattle post-doom band formed in 1990. And while he's not turning his back on his formative years, he wouldn't have made Silver Rails without having heard The Bees Made Honey In The Lion's Skull, a 2008 record by Earth.

Bruce tells the Great Falls Tribune: "I've been fortunate to be around some great people who taught me about the blues. I met people like Phil Davis and Eric Clapton - Eric's not just a great player, he's also a great musicologist. My first drummer was Charlie Watts.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
