Cream bassist Jack Bruce has sparked rumours that the band may reunite this autumn for a special one off show in London.

In an interview with Billboard, Bruce said that he and Eric Clapton are expected to attend the Zildjian Awards at the Royal Festival Hall in October to see drummer Ginger Baker receive his Drummer Achievement honour.

“‘Cause I’m only the bass player, I can’t say for sure. I know there’s a good chance we may play at that event … but I don’t want to overstate it and make it into something it isn’t,” he said.

Although he remained cautious about committing to an onstage reunion, he did say there was a “chance of some more shows”.

The band last performed together three years ago for a special series of Cream concerts in New York and London.

“I would like to do some more, ’cause I enjoyed it. It was very emotional. I would like another shot at it,” he added.
