I don't know, but if you could bottle it you've make a fortune!
Ditto Kieth Richards.

He lives in Colorado and breeds horses.
Met him a few times when with EC in Denver during the 90s and he was as fit as a fiddle -- although a "bit blur like a sotong," [Cuttlefish] as the singaporeans say.
But a real beaut bloke, too!

HOW is Ginger Baker still alive? When I went to a Cream concert in a tent in Cherry Hill, NJ, there was a rumor that Ginger Baker had died. Sure enough, Clapton and Bruce came out and played, but the drums sat empty. After a few songs, Baker emerged, but he looked like he was dead. Then he started to hit the drums. Both arms and both legs never stopped moving for the next few hours. A night I will always remember from my youth. But I don't remember exactly what year it was.

I saw Cream back in the 60s once.
Ginger Baker was on something (well, when wasn't he?), and whatever it was didn't sit too well on his stomach.
Without missing a beat, he leaned over to the side, vomited on stage, and kept right on going.

It was close. Most amazing.

Ginger Baker did an album with a band called "Masters of Reality" in the early 90's, and that was great stuff. It tended to sound like Cream more often than not on that album.
