sgcim Posted October 28, 2014 Report Posted October 28, 2014 It was depressing hearing him sing on his last album. The once great singer of "Tales of Brave Ulysses" and many other great Cream tunes, now sounded like an old, sick man. I kept wondering, why did they release this? Now we know... I wonder how his 'best fiend' Ginger Baker is taking this? JB's music career began when he sat in with a jazz group GB was playing with at a club. GB called something absurdly fast, so they could get rid of this little Scottish punk he had never met before. When Jack smoked the tempo, Ginger realized this kid was something special. That didn't stop Ginger from pulling a knife on Jack, when he came in on one of Ginger's solos in the Graham Bond Organization, and then getting Jack fired from the band because of the incident!
