“Seven Moons”, an album by Jack Bruce and Robin Trower that sees these prominent members of the seminal British rock and blues scene of the 1960s back together and in fine form. Robin Trower was the founding guitarist in the band Procol Harum and Jack Bruce needs no introduction as the lead vocalist of Cream – who wrote a lot of their material, including one of the world’s best-known rock guitar riffs in ‘Sunshine of Your Love’. The duo made two joint recordings in the early 1980’s, and have again teamed up on record, this time with British drummer Gary Husband – a member of Gary Moore’s band and the pop band Level 42.
What makes “Seven Moons” such a success is that Bruce and Trower each play to their strengths, Bruce brings his distinctive croon/moan to bluesy, riff-oriented tunes dominated by Trower’s playing. They conjure a Power Rock trio sound which touches on Cream and Hendrix yet draws from their own deep, dark wells of experience. Indeed it has been said that “Seven Moons” finds a space that Cream would have occupied had they recruited Hendrix: ballsy, economical, and confident. Trower, if anything, has toned down his usual space rock style, with some beautifully understated playing. Bruce’s bass remains as it has always been, solid and tasteful, shunning the instrumental spotlight, whilst Gary Husband’s drumming is also subtle, reflecting his jazz experience
To sum it up simply, “Seven Moons” is a spot-on recreation of late-’60s blues-rock’s halcyon days….Expertly done.
