I was at the Madison Square Garden show in 2005. It was a magical concert. If I were to describe Ginger Baker: 1968: Monster drummer 2005: Master drummer I’m so glad I got to witness my own personal GOAT play in person. And yes, Baker considered himself a jazz drummer. He was offended if you called him a rock drummer.

_" He was offended if you called him a rock drummer."_ My guess is that Baker was offended when the wind changed direction.

@WalStad53 11 месяцев назад

These three musicians literally accompanied my whole life. As a student I saw the motion picture film about "CREAM‘s Last Concert" in a cinema and now, three decades or even more later, I watched their reunion concert on TV. In the meantime I myself played the drums in a band, finished my studies, worked all these years, but if one thing stayed the same, it was the powerful, everlasting music of CREAM. There were of course years in which I didn‘t turn on one single track of their albums, but whenever I heard 'Sweet Wine‘, 'I‘m So Glad', 'White Room', 'Badge' or even 'Toad' - it was always like coming home! So thank You very much for Your reaction video, Andrew, and see You in another reaction.

This was late in the game for these guys and such a great revisit of what they had/did. Lost Jack and Ginger since. At his age, being a chain smoker etc., this is incredible. He played until the end. The Beware Mr. Baker documentary is a pretty cool look at Ginger.

@pilesovinyl Год назад

His documentary is so good. The man was super intense, he wasn't real personable, but it was always about the music. He didn't give a damn about whether people liked him, he was about playing and being the best at what he did. The documentary let you get inside of his view of the world and it was a most fascinating ride. You weren't expected to like him, only to appreciate what he did and to that end I loved the film and enjoyed buying his records and following his career.

You can hear the a lot of jazz history in his playing. And also the african/latin influence - he actually moved to Africa in the early 70's and built a recording studio. Fela Kuti was a frequent collaborator.

@MrCherryJuice 11 месяцев назад

Baker's major influence was London session drummer Phil Seaman. Not only a mentor, Seaman was also into the tom-heavy rhythmic afro-style playing that Baker absorbed and made his own with the Graham Bond Organisation and later with Cream. The 'Toad' on 'Fresh Cream is great, with a killer drum sound that was very unique and a Baker trademark. Go listen, particularly to the air in the toms and the slap of the bass drums. Brilliant! But a year prior to forming Cream (it was Ginger's band) and recording 'Fresh Cream', Baker recorded this track, 'Camels & Elephants' with the Graham Bond Organisation. The lineup of Bond on Hammond/sax/vocals; Jack Bruce on bass/harmonica/vocals; Dick Heckstall-Smith on saxes (having replaced guitarist John McLaughlin) did two albums in '65 before Baker, authorised by a drugged out Bond, fired Bruce and the band continued as a trio before Baker, not popular with his bandmates, decided to start his own band, which turned out to be Cream (name provided by an egotistical Clapton, who'd quit John Mayall's Bluesbreakers to join Baker, and then add Bruce). With Baker's departure Bond and Heckstall-Smith enlisted Jon Hiseman, who would later take Mitch Mitchell's spot in Georgie Fame's band and then with Heckstall-Smith join John Mayall's Bluesbreakers for the 'Bare Wires' album prior to forming Colosseum, one of the earliest jazz-rock bands. Here is 'Camels & Elephants'...the precursor to 'Toad'. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lGCW_9J99fQ.html

I saw Cream several times in the 60s and Bruce and Claptoon always left the stage when Baker played Toad. Creams extended inprovisation was a wll-know feature of the band and with Bakers solo there was always the name marker near the end the Bruce & Clapton would return. It was the same when Clapton played Stepping Out. Bruce and Baker left the stage although Baker came back after about 5minutes to keep the rhythm going

The live version of "Spoonful" on "Wheels of Fire" is some of the greatest drumming ever, IMO. Anyone new to Ginger Baker should check out Ginger's work with Charlie Haden and Bill Frisell. They did an album together and played live and both are available on RU-vid.

One of Cream’s first Top-40 hits was “I’m so glad.” I had the 45 RPM, bought their first eponymous album I was 13 years old ($2 at Discount Records in San Jose, CA) and was wild about “Toad.” The second “Wheels of Fire” disc with Crossroads, Spoonful, Train Time and Toad are in the truck CD player. I love your breakdowns of the music to help me appreciate HOW it was so good.

What is so cool about this solo is it’s control. The control of a player who has nothing to prove. A lot of solos especially done by young musicians are teetering on the edge which is also cool but sometimes it loses the plot. This was story telling with drums. Ginger’s life story told in a solo.

Just my opinion .....But if Cream stayed together , ZeppelIn would have gotten a run for their money. He put the double kick on the map. He used Jazz, Big Band Swing, Afro'-beat rhythms . He was one of a kind. Always pissed off, drunk, stoned, and impossible to make any suggestions to. Just ask Clapton. He had a tough life. Lost his dad at age 7 in WWII. His footprint left behind in music. is legendary. His son is a great drummer too Great reaction to a great drummer from a great drummer. Thanks Andrew

@kippsguitar6539 Год назад

Cream were excellent despite the limitations of baker and his mad ego

@MrCherryJuice 11 месяцев назад

@@kippsguitar6539 Ironically given how things played out, Cream was actually Ginger's band. His limitations weren't musical, though as the band became more successful and Jack Bruce's fortunes grew thanks to his songwriting credits (shared with Pete Brown, who was originally enlisted by Baker to help him with his own writing) he did become an emotional liability. He may not have had the most to gain had the band remained intact for at least a couple more years, though as time revealed, he had the most to lose.

@akdrumster Год назад

Much appreciated review & analysis Andrew. I've been a fan of Ginger's drumming upon purchasing my first Cream album, back in the day. And it has always been my desire to emulate him.

@privateprivate4378 4 месяца назад

I certainly appreciated your tie-in with jazz principles, but like any newbie listener you missed a lot of points: Ginger Baker was the world's best at playing any polyrhythm over any other one and he always knew exactly where he was. No other drummer could even try to sound as West African as he innately could do. I've seen him demonstrate all of this at a British drum academy. He could switch instantaneously from any time signature to another and land exactly where he would have been if he'd never done it. I've watched him in 'drum wars' with some of the best jazz drummers and he was hands down far better than they were, because he could go more places and do more things than they'd ever thought of trying. Buddy Rich thought his snare work would put him in the stars, but he wouldn't have lasted five minutes with Ginger Baker's overall versatility and mastery of multiple approaches and polyrhythms. Like a million jazz drummers you missed his double bass drum action, which despite what many of them have stated, cannot be attempted with a single bass drum Anyone who thinks you can do it with just one bass drum is simply delusional. Are there other great drummers out there? Absolutely, but they have to compete by being ideal for the musicians they're backing, because technically, they are light years away from where Ginger was long before he formed Cream. It was also Ginger's philosophy that the drummer should back the rest of the band when any song is being rendered. Are you someone who thinks the 'West African' drumming is obscure?: It is not, it's the basis for both jazz and rock/pop and country music. That is why it's so fundamental.

@jerrywilde6156 Год назад

Entirely subjective topic: musicianship. For me there have been many good and great drummers and just a handful who had that something extra, Ginger had extra in spades (as did Bonzo, Buddy Rich, Carl Palmer and a few others), he could read and write music and compose which is something of a rarity nowadays, he always claimed to be a jazz drummer (all drummers are, at heart, they just don't know it!) yet performed in Blues, Rock, Prog and so many more style bands, Cream being the defining one for most people. Ginger didn't invent the drum solo, that's been around since probably the 1920s or 30s with the small bands, the solos expanded as the bands got bigger and then as the stadia got larger, Ginger probably was one of the first to produce a stadium solo - and you can bet that he'd gone through the orchestration and composed the motif for it, everything else would just be a reflection of how he felt on the night. Love him or hate him, Ginger was one of the greatest drummers who ever lived (nil points for arguing against a subjective assertion). His notorious ambivalence or disdain for other drummers is a factor of his upbringing, just post war South London when you had to fight for everything, if you couldn't do, make it, work it or hack it, you were a failure and second class or worse in the pecking order - Ginger had all of the tools but, he also had a railroad girder sized chip on his shoulder (as a drummer he never seemed to feel that he got the respect that he deserved). To broaden my subjective claims to the objective, just listen to interviews with anyone of substance in the world of professional music, contemporaneous or otherwise, there are very very few who would disagree with me. OK, subjective or not, I'm ducking from incoming, over to you Andrew.

@kippsguitar6539 Год назад

Absolutely subjective, I just don't get him and nobody can make excuses for his behaviour, thousands of better drummers although he was definitely better at solos than serving a band or a song but still don't get him at all and thought he got far more credit than he deserved due to his self publicism, same goes for Mr average Clapton but I still liked cream as a unit and sure it's subjective and I don't think Andrew rates him very highly

@jerrywilde6156 Год назад

@@kippsguitar6539 Respect your view man. I can't excuse his behaviour towards other drummers (and some musicians) either, just give it some perspective - growing up in an immediate post war environment with your father in the services and his only message to you was basically, "If you want to survive, fight for everything", must have left a mark. I tend to agree about Eric though but, for me it became more noticeable as he got older (and lazier). That's the beauty of music, we all see and hear it differently through our own biases and filters.

@@dr.threatening8622 mid grade maybe but making a living playing and teaching for 40 years and it's really irrelevant who heard of me, actually met your Mr baker twice, so he had, not a nice man and not a great drummer but music is subjective and it's a good thing he inspired some people like you, enjoy

@@kippsguitar6539 The point is that your opinion is irrelevant. I'll stick with the opinion of the jazz school educated drum teacher and that of musicians far more talented than you. The only reason you had for boo-birding is to ride Ginger's coffin to get visits and views. If you don't like him, just click away.

No doubting he was a good musician but his attitude stunk. Very bitter man. He hated on so many other drummers

Never could allow myself to pay attention to the personal lives and attitudes of musicians. If I liked the music, I blocked that out. Yes… he was a bitter man who was somewhat of an asshole as a person… but I’ll wager that if you delve into the lives of some of your musical heroes, you might not like what you find. Can’t allow that to get in the way of my listening pleasure. 🤷🏻‍♂️
