Jack Bruce - Rockpalast: The 50th Birthday Concerts flac album

It was a late 50th birthday present. Born on May 14th, 1943, John Symon Asher (aka Jack Bruce) greeted his notable friends on stage on November 2nd and 3rd, 1993 at the E-Werk in Cologne. The Scottish bassist from Bishopbriggs had invited long time companions such as drummer Ginger Baker, saxophonist Dick Heckstall-Smith and guitarist Clem Clempson. The enthusiastic audience had the opportunity to congratulate him with an extraordinary celebration. The performance at the Rocklife concert with Ginger Baker resulted in the 1994 studio album Around The Next Dream. Other highlights from the birthday bash include the epic Bird Alone and Theme For An Imaginary Western from Jack Bruce’s first 1969 solo album Songs for a Tailor. This Cologne performance shows an impressive width of a remarkable career.

In 1993, Jack Bruce celebrated his 50th birthday with an two-day all-star concert featuring Simon Phillips and former Cream bandmate Ginger Baker (both on drums), c keyboardist Bernie Worrell and guitarists Gary Moore and Clem Clempson, among others. The shows – recorded at the E-Werk in Cologne, Germany on November 2nd and 3rd of that year – will see release in various formats on December 2nd under the title Rockpalast: The 50th Birthday Concerts.
