Vlak na het op 71-jarige leeftijd overlijden van bassist/zanger/componist Jack Bruce verschijnt eindelijk op 2 DVD's de registratie van de 2 concerten t.g.v. zijn 50ste verjaardag in 1993 in het Keulse E-Werk. In 1994 verscheen al de 2CD "Cities Of The Heart", maar deze DVD-set is met 35 i.p.v. 19 tracks veel completer. Wel is een handvol songs nu 2 keer te zien. Beide avonden werd besloten met een Cream-set. Op avond 1 speelde Clem Clempson (Colosseum, ex-Jack Bruce Band) de Eric Clapton-partijen, voor de tweede avond was Gary Moore (opmerkelijk genoeg ooit gitarist van Colosseum II!) ingevlogen. Ginger Baker was er beide avonden. De samenwerking Bruce/Baker/Moore beviel blijkbaar en leidde tot de band BBM, die later een studio-album met nieuw repertoire zou afleveren. Hiervóór gaan we in vogelvlucht langs Bruce's hele carrière, waarvoor steeds andere muzikanten zijn opgetrommeld: o.a. superdrummer Simon Phillips, en de van Parliament-Funkadelic bekende Bernie Worrell (orgel) en Gary "Mudbone" Cooper (zang).
