A Question of Time is a studio album by the Scottish musician Jack Bruce, released on 3 October 1989 by Epic Records. It was his first album for a major label in nearly a decade. He supported it with a North American tour.
Production
Vernon Reid played guitar on "Life on Earth". Ginger Baker played drums on two tracks. Bruce wrote many of the songs with Pete Brown. "Blues You Can't Lose" is a cover of the Willie Dixon song.
Critical reception
The Washington Post noted that the "music sounds oddly self-referential, as if Bruce is intent on making us aware of the pivotal but overlooked role he played in the rise of Cream." The Orlando Sentinel opined that "Bruce's reedy tenor is agile and passionate, and his songwriting range is broad."
The Columbus Dispatch deemed the album "a hard-driving amalgam of blues, funk and rock." The San Jose Mercury News concluded that "the evocative, ethereal ballad 'Make Love' is one of his best songs, and his voice is a warbling treasure."
AllMusic wrote that the album "uses his mastery of jazz, pop, acoustic, and blues to give listeners what Jack Bruce does best: rock & roll."
