I was watching a programme about drummers the other week in which he featured, handn' t heard he'd passed. RIP

If you have even the slightest interest in Ginger Baker, Cream, music, drums or just want to known what all the fuss is about. Watch a movie called "Beware of Mr Baker".

He formed Cream, and they were the original BIG Supergroup.

He wasn't always nice, but he really was something special.

He is the reason drummers are no longer just someone sat at the back just tap... tap... tap... keeping time.

"Moon and Bonham were just bashers, Baker was a musician".
