Cream bassist says reunion in the works
By ALAN ROBINSON
Associated Press Writer


LONDON -- Jack Bruce says Cream is once again rising to the top. The bassist for the legendary rock group told The Associated Press on Thursday that he agreed recently to play an unspecified show or shows later this year with guitarist Eric Clapton and drummer Ginger Baker.

Bruce would not say when the reunion would occur, but that it would not be the seven-continent Live Earth shows on July 7: "It's a bit later than that."

Bruce recently told the Scotsman newspaper there was no chance the band would reunite because of long-standing tension between him and Baker.

"Then, the next day, it came up we're doing something if I wanted to. Obviously, I'm not going to be the one to say no," Bruce told the AP during an appearance at the Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp.

Representatives for Clapton and Baker have not confirmed the reunion.

Infighting and ego clashes between Baker and Bruce go back decades, with Baker once firing his drum sticks at Bruce during a show and Bruce upending Baker's drum kit.

Clapton persuaded Bruce and Baker to reunite in 2005 after a 37-year split. But the ill will resurfaced, with Baker accusing Bruce of turning up his bass to deafening levels during a Madison Square Garden show, and Clapton appeared uncomfortable on stage.

However, Bruce played those 2005 shows about a year after receiving a liver transplant that kept him alive. He hopes another Cream reunion would be less physically and mentally stressful.

"I hadn't recovered properly yet, so I found it quite difficult," Bruce said. "Now I'm completely recovered so I would enjoy it more."

Bruce made an infrequent performance Thursday, playing Cream's "Sunshine of Your Love" and "White Room" with former Kiss guitarist Bruce Kulick, Bad Company drummer Simon Kirke and Queen keyboardist Spike Edney before about 75 spectators at the Fantasy Camp. Bruce also played Cream songs with the camp's amateur bands, composed of about 50 rock fans who paid upward of $15,000 each for the privilege.

I do miss the music of late 60's, early 70's... music was wild then, so many styles to choose from... you had to be different back then. Of course there's a lot of really great music out there today as well, you just don't hear it on your radio or see it on your TV. Come to think of it, that's how it was back then too... Some things will never change.

A-freaking-men brother! If there is another show, I am there. The MSG shows were BRILLIANT.

     I don't live in the past, but I visit there regularly.  Dr. Who has his TARDIS...well. so do I.  His looks like a London phone booth, mine is in the shape of a Dodge Charger R/T!
     Too bad about all the people who are permanently stuck in the present...they missed it all the first time and they're missing it again!

You know what I miss most about the past? High-top sneakers. Real, honest to God, break-dancer style, 2" over the ankle high-tops. There has never been a more comfortable shoe. I still remember a pair of $12 off-brand black ones that Ma bought me at the local Big Wheel for back-to-school in the seventh grade. I wore those suckers until they flat-out fell apart. I'd kill somebody for another pair of those same shoes.

Also, any of the various surf-revival compilation albums this band has contributed to.

I don't miss anthing about the past except  I miss having Reagan as the president wish he was still around but I don't miss the crappy cars and the stupid "music" groups of the 80's. Oh I do miss having the F-14 flying around as the baddest fighter in the world I love that plane

the reason i brought it up is because so many things and attutudes the members here enjoy and seem to want to hold on to or bring back are from 20 plus years ago... Raygun, Star Wars, DOH,.. you get the idea...
Some of the things are concidered "classics" by us, but the world has moved on and some things have improved and some things have gotten worse,.. alot worse...
i sometimes feel like we, and i will include myself in here, bury our collective heads in the sand and in doing so are vulnerable to some pretty rude reality checks,..
So make all the jokes you want I enjoy them but but their are some pretty interesting things going on in the world, and I for one want to at least be aware of what they are...
