Re: Eric Clapton on next Bruce CD

I don't think we'll see the Boy, Don.

But seriously folks, if pop nobility is gonna be an aspect of Bruce's next
CD, he should call Mary J. Blige. She's got the real goods on vocals.  I
think several of Bruce's past works have been borderline hip-hop, so he
knows the musical places she comes from.  They've both been to that
neighborhood, so to speak.    There's potential for a crossover hit with the
right tune from Bruce and MJB.

Maybe Bruce has some new marketing energy coming with the next release.  I
don't think a project books and records these kinds of contributors unless
someone is planning on promoting this baby.  Thanks for the interesting
update, Si.
