GREAT drummer! Had a chance to see him play with Jack Bruce and Blues Saraceno. 2/3rds of Cream. There was a rumor that Eric Clapton may show up, but it was just that, a rumor. He was awesome to watch! What a loss to the music industry. I played drums for a few years starting in '84. Used to try to play his stuff. Danny

Sad another rocker has passed. Creative and sometimes aggressive in drumming methods. RIP and keep the beat.

If you haven't seen it - Search for and check out a documentary on him called Beware of Mr Baker...

We saw him play in Austin four years ago. He was just released from the hospital, but played on for the audience.
