Ginger Baker,Jack Bruce and the late great Gary Moore.I'v only got the one song but check out elsewhere on You Tube for the 7 min clip with the best live version of "I feel free" I've ever heard. • 1994 - BBM Jack Bruce,...
Gary Moore and the "Greeny" Les Paul ; the most under-rated guitarist ever, i find it hard to believe that a player of his talent never enjoyed the appreciation he truly deserved. Genius player.
As usual -- Ginger Baker probably screwed this band up, as he destroyed Cream (according to Clapton & Bruce) and Clapton's next band with the great Steve Winwood... Baker was nuts and eventually ruined everything he got involved with.... marriages and bands. That's why he was 80 and broke -- because no one would deal with him after a point, from his 40s on.
Still play the one and only BBM album constantly. Wish they’d stayed together. Heartbreaking to think that two thirds of this wonderful trio have already left us. Moore and Bruce were totally brilliant together, this band should have easily been as celebrated as Cream or any other blues / rock band in the last 50 years. Never got the chance to see them “live”, I presume their tour appearances were very limited.
I agree, well put....Which one was it...Baker or Bruce that didn't get along with Clapton, and claimed that Moore was a better guitarist....I heard that somewhere.
@@SSGTA440 Jack said Eric played it safe after cream split up, he stopped being innovative and became a traditional bluesman which is true , he also said that at the time Gary was much more ferocious than Eric and more accurate to creamssound, Ginger said that Gary was a good player but he was too loud so he didn't like him.
@@jokkergar Interesting....but apparently Baker had a lot of trouble getting along with a LOT of people...one guy who knew Baker thought he was "a liking to an old woman"....lol... I know that George Harrison said that Moore was his fave guitarist...
Fantastic performance! Live music as it should be. Each time we lose an artist we admire it reminds us of our own mortality. I have had to say goodbye to so many in my life and some have burned themselves out far too quickly.
They got very negative responses from so called music critics they just said balls to it we don't need to do this, a quote from a G Moore interview this was a great album I still have it.
Now the first line of the blues, is always the same as the second line Now the first line of the blues, is always the same as the second line Because by the time you get to the third line, you've had time to think of a rhyme. -- Andrew Lloyd Weber
This is the Band Cream are in an alternative reality, Clapton is an amazing Musician, but never had the Rock Soul of Gary Moore and thats what Cream needed, this give a glimpse of what that might have been. These guys should have done more recordings!
Love the "Power Trios" like Cream, BBM, etc. When one member stops playing, there is an "emptiness" in the sound which must be filled. This has led to many exciting solos or complex interactions from the other group members. 🤔
+lovetownmusicuk You cannot compare the Eric of 1968 with Gary in the 90th; mabe you can compare Gary in the 90th with E.C. in the 90th. But it is clear: Gary stands on the shoulders of Eric. A lot of riffs and phrases in this song here are definitely Eric's ones.
Gary Moore always was great in his recording career,. Eric Clapton was Amazing before the heroin, he still could write a nice song post heroin but playing was never as good as it was pre heroin, the Cream and John Mayall days were groundbreaking stuff he did with amazing tone too.
