Zeppelin Have Always Been Crap?

(BW&BK) Jack Bruce picked up the Classic Album gong for CREAM's Disraeli Gears at last night's Classic Rock awards. After the ceremony Classic Rock Magazine's Dave Ling grabbed Bruce for a quickfire interview – and was stunned when the legendary bassist launched into an extraordinary anti-LED ZEPPELIN tirade. An excerpt reads as follows: Ling: The million dollar question: Are Cream going to do anything again? Bruce: "Oh yeah, I'm sure we will. But we'll have Todd Rundgren [who's just walked by] in the band by then." Ling: It's good news that there might be more from Cream. Bruce: "Well, the trouble is that I'm doing so many amazing things on my own. Cream is just a band from many, many years ago, and we did do something [referring to the reunion shows in 2005]… Everybody talks about Led Zeppelin, and they played one f***ing gig – one f***ing lame gig – while Cream did weeks of gigs; proper gigs, not just a lame gig like Zeppelin did, with all the [vocal] keys lowered and everything. We played everything in the original keys. [Becoming animated]: F*ck off, Zeppelin, you're crap. You've always been crap and you'll never be anything else. " - more on this story
