Writing up his biography  for PA, I've increasingly become impressed with the broad and deep musical range and creditials of Jack Bruce, a very special type of progressive musician.

Priest is fine, but Priester is better.  Wink And maybe I'll get a JP (Julian Priester) sig,  Actually, I like 'em both differently.

Jack Bruce is a great addition!  And hopefully this may give a little more impetus to Cream's addition. Wink

Here's another thumbs up for Jack Bruce's addition.  I still don't really understand Things We Like, said lack of understanding being a good thing.  It's one of those puzzles ya never quite figure out.

Can you tell me where we're headin'?
Lincoln County Road or Armageddon.

Got to remember the biographer ain't much younger, besides it reflects what bass he's playing nowadays and is a good study of the man in action. Typical: just spotted a review of a new Jack Bruce album in today's London Times art supplement - excuse for its addition, with some more polishing and removal of typos

cream is here or there....  Ginger Baker's AIr Force needs to be on this site... simple as that. It isn't 'related', isn't Tech Extreme... not african music....and it wasn't Cream pt 2.... it was...

Ginger Baker's Air Force was (considered by everyone but Progarchives as) a jazz-rock fusion band comprising Ginger Baker on drums, Steve Winwood on organ and vocals, Ric Grech on violin and bass, Jeanette Jacobs on vocals, Denny Laine on guitar and vocals, Remi Kabaka on drums, Chris Wood on tenor sax and flute, Graham Bond on alto sax, Harold McNair on tenor sax and flute, and Phil Seamen on percussion. Their first live shows, at Birmingham Town Hall in 1969 and the Royal Albert Hall, in 1970, also included Jeanette Jacobs and Eleanor Barooshian (both former members of girl group The Cake), and Remi Kabaka.

The band released two albums, both in 1970: Ginger Baker's Air Force and Ginger Baker's Air Force 2. The second album involved substantially different personnel from the first, with Ginger Baker and Graham Bond being the primary constants between albums.

^ sorry Micky, two no votes from Martin and myself on Air Force. We both agree that when it comes to progressive African music, Fela Kuti and King Sunny Ade would have to come first. No red carpet for the rock star.

This thread is going better than my short lived 'Ginger Baker Appreciation Thread' that I posted a way time back.
Good addition of Jack B.... and I second Cream's consideration for addition to PA.
