A bit of a grouch but a great drummer.

I saw him at the Garden in N.Y. for the Cream reunion. Just amazing. One of the first to use double bass. R.I.P. Ginger.

“Ginger Baker. A jazz drummer in a rock band.“

The thing about a great drummer is that he doesn’t have to do very much yet he can swing massively. I can listen to Baker on Crossroads all day. He’s just NAILING it.
