Have you seen “Beware of Mr. Baker”?
No, but because of you, I found the trailer! https://youtu.be/44xBUUCeLWs
Wish I had known about the production! I think I still have his raw footage boxed somewhere. He was a crusty old queen but I always appreciated that he let me invade his drum space with my camera. I should probably find his son, Kofe, and give it to him.
Thank you for sharing that film! I’ll have to find it and watch!
Yes and I would like to "unsee" it. Although I love Mike Hammer, Richard Diamond, the Untouchables and the rest, the violent insanity of Baker in that makes me cringe more.
My personal list would be a near photo finish of Cream and then Jimi Hendrix Experience. Saw them live, of course.
But one and one only true top leader (not "a band") is Bob Dylan. IMHO. Seeing him as the acoustic guitar guy with three albums out I was totally mesmerized hearing the first performances of Chimes of Freedom, It Aint Me Babe and others. Later in the very first electric tour saw him in Detroit which drummer Mickey Jones mentioned was part of rock history forming right on stage. Unforgettable years.
