Ginger Baker

[Dis86]

Quite possibly the greatest drummer ever, and that's from a Rush fan.

RIP.

One of my favourites just for that drum score during the bridge and the later verses.

Quite possibly the greatest drummer ever

and that was said by Ginger himself.
I don't think I've heard him say a nice word about anybody

RIP though, you were brilliant.

RIP, what a talent

Just Clapton left from Cream now then. Baker was one hell of drummer that's for sure. I read his autobiography a few years back in which in he pretty much admits and makes very few apologies for being a grumpy, cantankerous and angry man. Still deserves his place in history as a truly legendary drummer.

If you've not seen it then the documentary Beware of Mr Baker https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1931388/ is fantastic

So sad. Cream were the soundtrack of my student days.

Only Eric left now!

Loved his work with Masters of Realty and he was pretty tidy in Cream too, a true legend & quite a character by all accounts!

Been listening to Air Force 1 & 2 this week, both excellent.

RIP Ginger you grumpy sod!
