Saw him many times. Fantastic drummer. I didn't know, thanks for posting.

One of my favorites. I paid up to see the Cream reunion in the early 2000s.
Dreadful human being, from what I've read...but an undeniably great drummer.

A true legend and innovator.

RIP - you will not be forgotten.

Beware of Mr Baker
Quite a character.

Did he do anything after Cream ?

After Cream, Baker played with Blind Faith (with Eric Clapton and Stevie Winwood). After that, he went off into more of a jazz direction.

I forget about BF.

Wow, Sorry to hear that he passed. I was just watching the Cream reunion DVD yesterday and enjoyed it immensely. I highly recommend it!

Truly a magnificent musician. RIP.

After hearing the news, I listened to Ginger Baker's Airforce, which I had never heard before.

I had one of the jazz albums that he did in the 2000s. He always viewed himself as a jazzman.

R.I.P. Ginger Baker.

I forget about BF.

I think of BF as a high point!

I was 11 years old in 1969 when the one and only album was released.
