Bruce is also trained as a classical cellist. However, despite the other genres of music with which which he is associated, Bruce has always considered himself to be a jazz musician, although much of his catalogue of compositions and recordings tend to evoke the blues and rock and roll. The Sunday Times stated "... many consider him to be one of the greatest bass players of all time."

In 2009 he was the focus of the company's hottest storyline, "Jack Bruce, Man Under Pressure", which turned him from popular main eventer into unquestionably the biggest babyface currently working in North America. Jack Bruce's name is directly based off the late Cream bassist of the same name.
