Sadly, I missed the Ginger Baker era. Had I known he was a jazz drummer first I would have paid attention. Thanx to the OP and is list I've an opportunity to catch up. Dare I ask where to start? D a R. R3~

He wasn't. He played in jazz bands sometimes and he was musically schooled, unlike most rock drummers. But as much as Bonham, Moon or Baker (the top 3 of rock drummers ?) would have like to, they were not in the same league as Buddy Rich, Tony Williams, Max Roach, Art Blakey, Roy Haynes or alike.Great drummer though, all credits and rip.

I am not sure why every newly-dead rock star gets a thread on this Guzzi board.But please don't explain it.Moto
Same here, but I do know I have a little wheel on my mouse that makes things I'm un-interested in scroll on by. <shrug>
For many of us certain musicians , bands , comedians , represent a period in our lives . We see references to movies like Blazing Saddles, or the Python stuff as a way to connect to an era , or maybe even a shared set of touchstones . Call it shorthand , an easy way for us to create a narrative . Dusty
No doubt one of my all time favorite drummers. He influenced me to take up the drums back then. Still enjoy playing 2-3 days a week at almost 67. Thank you Ginger. And Kofi isn’t that bad a drummer either. 🥁
