ProgArchives While he didn't go on to superstardom like his Cream bandmate Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce--with his distinctive vocals, ripping bass, and enigmatic songs--carved out quite a diverse career for himself, playing in rock, blues, jazz, and even avant-garde and world-music contexts. Featuring a dizzying array of guests plucked from a wide range of musical styles (including Dr. John, Eric Clapton, Gary Moore, and Buena Vista Social Club star Chiquita Luis Quintana), SHADOWS IN THE AIR features material from almost all stages of Bruce's protean career. Jack Bruce return to form and possibly his best album from "Cream" time.Long, 15-tracks album, with 8 full-new Bruce songs and some old great compositions. Jack's voice is in excellent power and easy recogniseable. He mixes, blues, rock, jazz, Latin in one soulful,original excellent mix. Eric Clapton plays guitar on Sunshine of Your Love and White Room as in old good times, but it doesn't sound as nostalgia. Just great new reading of old classics. Two other well known compositions ( Heart Quake and Dark Heart) are coming from another Bruce's project, BBM, and original guitarist Gary Moore adds his guitar on new versions as well. Dr.John plays his organ on two more songs. Bruce's vocals is very sensitive, soulful and reminds David Bowie best works. Bruce's new team includes Latin percussion trio, which gives warm and jazzy atmosphere to all compositions. ~progarchives.com Tracklist: [05:24] 01. Out Into The Fields
