Favorite drummer. Still keeping my vinyls of Cream and Blind Faith. RIP.

 

His obituary from today's New York Times.

Enjoyed the video. Never heard of him. RIP

 

Couple of my favorite Cream tunes... in his honor.

 

I watched Beware Mr Baker on Netflix a couple of years ago. Pretty good show about him. A guy tracked him down where he was living and did the bio thing on him. Amazing drummer. Unfortunately, not so great of a person overall and heavy drug use certainly took its toll to the very end! Too bad he for some reason appeared to hate his son (who also is a drummer) or simply didnt want anything to do with him based upon the way Ginger talked about him in the show.
