Gone to the White Room

October 25th, 2014 Comments Off on Gone to the White Room

Another great Scot has passed away. Jack Bruce was a major influence on rock music with his groundbreaking songwriting, bass playing and singing, especially with bandmates Eric Clapton and Ginger Baker in their super-group The Cream.

I first heard Cream when my cousin visited us from Wales and brought their Disraeli Gears LP. He tried to draw the cover on my sister’s bedroom wall with crayons. Even though I was a Monkee fan at the time, I loved Sunshine of Your Love! When White Room was released, thousands of bands were formed around the world!

Here is a proper obituary of Jack Bruce in case you were getting tired of him being mentioned as Eric Clapton’s bass player (who also sang)!

And the YouTube of White Room.
