RIP Ginger Baker. The interviews with him in this documentary show him straight, lucid and happy, a huge contrast with most of the other interviews of him - and of course the movie "beware of Mr Baker". I think he was living in Parker Colorado at this time and I suspect this was the happiest period of his life. Great drummer, flawed human being.
lr882027 probably because he’s discussing his whole journey & the genre to i suppose when its narrowed down to talking about members things normally got nasty but i get you this is a great documentary with baker

It is a pity that Graham Bond Organisation never made it. Their talent was outstanding.
