Monkjack is the eleventh studio album by Scottish musician Jack Bruce, released on 10 October 1995 by CMP Records.[1][2] The album is unique in his catalogue in that he only sings and plays piano, and is joined only by former P-Funk organist Bernie Worrell. It features a re-working of the song "Weird of Hermiston" from his 1969 debut solo album Songs for a Tailor.
