Tony R Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 (edited) He died today... https://www.bbc.co.u...t-arts-49827436 While commercial success eluded him, his reputation, particularly with a new generation of drummers, remained high."His playing was revolutionary," said Neil Peart, drummer with the Canadian band Rush. "He set the bar for what rock drumming could be." Edited October 6, 2019 by Tony R 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjbear05 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 (edited) Fresh Cream was one of the first rock albums I discovered, about the same time as Are You Experienced. Rest well, Ginger. Edited October 6, 2019 by pjbear05 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RushFanForever Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) Geddy Lee pays tribute to Ginger Baker on his Instagram page via Rushisaband here. The photo of Cream from the Massey Hall venue in Toronto on June 5th, 1968 was taken by the late Nash The Slash of FM fame. The date of the Cream concert was initially April 22nd, but was postponed to June 5th so the band could have a rest according to the tour archives on Whereseric.com Nash The Slash also posted some photos of the band backstage awhile back on his website here.
