 JACK BRUCE

A quite extraordinary find recently from Floppy Boot Stomp thanks to SilentWay there. I reflect that we have access to recordings now that the quality improves by the week it seems and this is as rare a recording as it gets and only recently did anyone find out who was on it (check the artwork)! It is staggeringly good quality and therefore highly listenable and Jack's jazz at its peak! Enjoy . . . . . .

Head - with guest Jack Bruce
"Live a
t the College of Art"
June 5, 1979   
 Glasgow, Scotland
Radio broadcast "Radio Scotland" @flac
on the "Jazz and That" program.
 
 
Jack Bruce - bass, piano?
John Davies- trumpet, electric piano
Gordon Cruikshank - reeds

the cover says this is "after diligent research by 'zubbid' and 'ester1960'"
but it also lists the second set which is not included here and featured Jack playing bass and vocals supported by Dick Heckstall-Smith on sax and John Stevens on drums and cornet. in a gig from Crawley 4th Sept 1993
