Posted on 13/10/2019 00:13 by DavidKlyneI think heavy metal or whatever it was called passed me by. I was very into music when I was younger but after the Beatles I seemed to be doing other things. I liked some of what I would call the more mainstream stuff. There was an Imagine programme on about Ginger Baker the other night seemed an interesting fellow in an odd way! Must admit I didn't take much notice of drummers except perhaps Sandy Nelson.

My grandson is having drumming lessons (6 years old!) so as I had seen Ginger Baker and Cream at University (a long, long time ago) I sent my daughter a link to one of his drum solos. Two days later Ginger died. To be honest, I was really surprised that he was still alive up to that point!
