Bruce, ktorý je považovaný za jedného z najlepších basgitaristov všetkých čias, si udržal sólovú kariéru, ktorá trvala niekoľko desaťročí a hral aj v niekoľkých hudobných skupinách. Bruce, známy ako spevák a basgitarista, bol tiež skladateľom piesní. Hoci sa vyučil ako klasický violončelista a považoval sa za jazzového hudobníka, veľa z jeho katalógu skladieb a nahrávok inklinovalo k blues a rock and rollu.
Od roku 1962 začínal Bruce ako kontrabasista u Grahama Bonda v organizácii Graham Bond Organization , ktorá hrala zmes jazzu, blues a R&B. V tom čase sa zoznámil s bubeníkom Ginger Baker . Po pôsobení s Johnom Mayallom a Manfredom Mannom založil s Bakerom a gitaristom Ericom Claptonom skupinu Cream . Cream mal počas svojej existencie množstvo hitov, väčšinu z nich napísal Bruce s textárom Petom Brownom .
V rokoch od rozpadu skupiny Cream v roku 1968 vydal Bruce množstvo sólových albumov, väčšinou v experimentálnejšom duchu, a spolupracoval so širokou škálou hudobníkov v mnohých žánroch. Na zozname sú Robin Trower , Tony Williams , John McLaughlin , Carla Bley , Allan Holdsworth , Ringo Starr a Frank Zappa . Bol tiež členom kapely West, Bruce and Laing .
V roku 1994 vydal album pod názvom kapely BBM (Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker a Gary Moore) s názvom Around the Next Dream.
Bruce vydal nový štúdiový album Silver Rails v marci 2014 na Esoteric Antenna, jeho prvý sólový štúdiový album za viac ako desať rokov.

Sunshine Of Your Love
Jack Bruce Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll soon be with you my love, give you my dawn surprise
I'll be with you darling soon
I'll be with you when the stars start falling
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love
I'm with you my love, the light's shining through on you
Yes, I'm with you my love, it's the morning and just we two
I'll stay with you darling now
I'll stay with you till my seas are dried up
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love
I'm with you my love, the light's shining through on you
Yes, I'm with you my love, it's the morning and just we two
I'll stay with you darling now
I'll stay with you till my seas are dried up
I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love
Jack Bruce's "Sunshine of Your Love" is a ballad that portrays a passionate yearning for a person who is distant, with whom the singer wants to be united. The song begins with suggestive imagery of "lights clos[ing] their tired eyes" as it nears dawn, and the singer promises to give the object of his affection "my dawn surprise." The verses are repetitive, with a refrain in which the singer describes how he has been "waiting so long" to find his lover and bask in the "sunshine of [her] love."
The lyrics paint a picture of a final, euphoric reunion, with the singer promising to stay by his love's side until "my seas are dried up." The song communicates the longing that many people feel for someone they desire, and the relief and joy that comes with finally being with that person after a period of longing. The use of imagery like dawn and starfall further emphasizes the idea of the end of a long, dark period and the coming of light and hope.

It's getting near dawn when lights close their tired eyes
It's almost sunrise and the lights are turning off after a long night
I'll soon be with you my love, give you my dawn surprise
I'll be there soon to surprise you with the beauty of the sunrise
I'll be with you darling soon
I'll be there with you very soon
I'll be with you when the stars start falling
I'll be with you always, even when it feels like the world is falling apart
I've been waiting so long
I've been anticipating this moment for a very long time
To be where I'm going
To finally be where I belong
In the sunshine of your love
In the warmth and affection of your love
I'm with you my love, the light's shining through on you
I'm here with you, and everything feels bright and positive
Yes, I'm with you my love, it's the morning and just we two
Yes, it's just me and you in this moment of love and tranquility
I'll stay with you darling now
I'm committed to staying with you right now, no matter what
I'll stay with you till my seas are dried up
I'll be with you always, even if it seems impossible or hopeless
I've been waiting so long
I've been longing for this moment for a very long time
I've been waiting so long
I've been looking forward to this moment for ages
I've been waiting so long
I've been dreaming of this moment for a very long time
To be where I'm going
To finally reach my desired destination
In the sunshine of your love
In the radiance and warmth of your adoration

John Symon Asher Bruce (14 May 1943 – 25 October 2014) was a Scottish musician, singer and songwriter known primarily for his contributions to the British supergroup Cream, which also included the guitarist-singer Eric Clapton and the drummer Ginger Baker. In March 2011 Rolling Stone readers selected him as the eighth greatest bass guitarist of all time. "Most musicians would have a very hard time distinguishing themselves if they wound up in a band with Eric Clapton and Ginger Baker," the magazine said at the time, "but Jack Bruce was so gifted on the bass that he did it with ease."
Bruce maintained a solo career that spanned several decades and also played in several musical groups. Although recognized first and foremost as a vocalist, bassistand songwriter, he also played double bass, harmonica, piano, cello and guitar. He was trained as a classical cellist and considered himself a jazz musician, although much of his catalogue of compositions and recordings tended toward rock and blues.
In 1981, Bruce collaborated with guitarist Robin Trower and released two power trio albums, B.L.T. and Truce,
In 2008, Bruce collaborated again with guitarist Robin Trower on the album Seven Moons. It also featured Husband. Sadly like so many Jack died of liver disease. Bruce died of liver disease on 25 October 2014, in Suffolk, England, aged 71, SO
