Jack Bruce
Chris Charlesworth, Melody Maker, 7 July 1973
JACK BRUCE has turned full circle. The best bass guitarist Britain has produced, whose career has merged jazz and rock to the extent where he is now accepted as a top musician in both fields, is back where he started. He's playing rock and roll in a trio and loving every minute of it.
