One day before the first anniversary of Jack Bruce's death, on 24th. October 2015, his daughter Natasha (also known as Aruba Red) organized a tribute concert in honor of her father at London's Roundhouse. The concert was quickly sold out, many guests came to honor the unique person and artist Jack Bruce on stage: the ''longtime Cream companion'' Ginger Baker, Jon Anderson (Jethro Tull), Joss Stone, Phil Manzanera (Roxy Music), Mark King (Level 42), Uli Jon Roth and many more.
Musical director of the evening was with the well-known British DJ, producer and remixer Nitin Sawhney. The 25th of Oct. 2019 is the fifth anniversary of the death of Jack Bruce. And exactly on this day this concert will be released in a box set as DVD and double CD, all in outstanding sound- and image quality.
Eric Clapton, who founded the legendary psychedelic blues rock band Cream together with Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker in 1966, was unfortunately not able to take part in the London Roundhouse event. But he personally remembers his friend Jack Bruce, who was an ''enormous inspiration'' for him throughout his life, with the musical homage ''For Jack'', which he wrote especially for him and which is released here for the first time on record as a bonus.
