The dangling cigarette is a total flex.
Great as always but deffo rocking the Albert Steptoe look on here.
Man I've never been able to play while smoking, let alone soloing. I just wanted to see how far he could go with that cig and I'm amazed at how far he did!
More seriously, very interessting stuff here because we can see clearly the very stuff he used to play with Cream.
Cheers!
Clearly the best ever cream of the crop
Wow! Even with the pyrotechnics he is still understated. He can slip in a measure of absolutely amazing virtuosity as though it were fill. Miss it? Listen again!
magnifico.😭
Ginger swings wonderfully, and the some...
still love his work!!
Me too. Never could I get enough of Ginger
Thanks for this upload !! I didn't know he used double bass !! 👍👍😍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞
First one to do it.
@stevefisher8323 Really ?? Wow. I loved cream ,I think Cream was the coolest rock band ever in a way ! And he was,the drum was the leading instrument. The most important player in the band was him ! Very unique ,great vibes ,groovy band he made Cream to be !! Thanks for your reply ! My brother in law used to know his son,btw. I loved their " Colourful cream" album ,can't count how many times I've played it in my life !! 👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞
@@spark_6710 The long version of Toad (I think on their live album) IMO still stands as the greatest of all time.
@stevefisher8323 Hey. I just googled who was the 1st drummer played double base drums ,it was Loui Bellson !! I've totally forgotten about that !! Because I never cared for it ! To me ,hi hat is the most important thing when it comes to drums !! The greatest invention of musical instruments !!
I used to stay up to catch Louie Bellson on a late night talk show in the 90's !! He was like a magician !!
Buddy Rich said ,hi hats were the most important, too !! He stopped playing double base after realizing it .
Thank you so much for your replies !! I enjoy hearing from drum fans/ drummers ! 👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞
@@spark_6710 I rock drumming Baker I believe was the first
Ashes to Ashes Drums to Drums
Thanks👏👏👏
I'm more curious as to how they got those toms to sound so bad lol. The kicks sound excellent. Great performance none the less.
I was equally surprised to see a legend playing something so crappy sounding at a show.
@@strumminfuel4625 I think the sound guy sucked that night. Everything is off lol.
Those toms need some tuning. Surprised Ginger was happy playing on an unprepared kit!
Those heads sound shot!
@@tonyvincent9753 If dead whales could speak....LOL!
A M A Z I N G drummer , absolutely not over rated because a real genius influent and with a unique style . A master of the double bass , and i cant tell the same of buddy rich , for example , that is , really, the most over rated drummer in history, maybe good in his time but now surpassed . Ginger is above him by far !
Good 'ol Ludwigs. Wish I could play bass like that.
Bill Frisell great guitarist
Ginger Baker was the beating heart of Cream, they would not have been the same without him. The greatest drummer ever.
Indeed.
Ginger Baker was Cream. Eric Clapton is overrated.
He might not have had the technical skills of Buddy Rich but Ginger was amazing and exciting to see and hear. He influenced drummers the way Hendrix influenced guitar players.
Rich played drum solos Ginger played musical compositions on the drums
@@mickpearson6184 Couldn't have said it better!
To me ginger style is much more better than buddy rich , and is easy for a professionist imitate buddy but is more difficult enter in the sound of ginger !
@@user-jg9pk2yy2d meh. They both are the best at what they did. Technically, Buddy Rich is and will be the top.
@@jamess4535 buddy rich could not play the double bass drum , a difficult technique and ginger was a master in this kind of indipendence with the pedals. Ginger was more complete and more creative than buddy a musician with a dated sound . I am a drummer so i know what i say. My vote is for Ginger .
Organic trap drumming Master!
Could listen to Tracy hit that note at the end of the tune a zillion times!!
Ginger Baker est un batteur hors pair
D'une puissance monumentale
Mais il était ingérable
Un caractère exécrable
Yeeeah❤
He had toyme.
hahaha what a legend, wearing a sunrise on the sufferbus shirt.
Chicago made Ludwig drums!!!
Ginger Baker was by far the most unique drummer ever, simply the best.
Beginning of video cigarette is 3 inches long, then 3 and a half minutes later @3:35 one inch cigarette. 😆😆
Gah those rack toms sound HORRIBLE!
I've heard probably everything that Ginger ever recorded and I've seen him live several times. His kit always sounded great - except here. I reckon something went wrong with the rack tom mics or he had previously had a fight with the sound man...
They sound exactly the way they're supposed to. You obviously haven't a clue.
Nope. Not a clue. Your response shows you have less of a clue than me. I'm a professional musician, but you obviously know more than me. Can you teach me how to know when toms sound good? If these are what they're supposed to sound like, well .... hey- why did you get so defensive? Are you Ginger Baker? Can I get your autograph? @@dimension2488
I love the sound of those toms.
Fuckin A
God them Tom drums sound horrid
Ruined by the worst toms sounds like he got them off a 50 quid starter set
I will be honest- imo- at ANY age he is vastly unremarkable as a drummer. Not fast- dull- repetitive- not interesting in any way.
Those toms sound like crap lol
In my humble opinion.... a very over rated drummer who developed this persona and character backed up by very basic rudiments... just a sheer force of perseverance and God help anyone in the band opening their mouth... I think he like Charlie Watts just stuck at it and carved out a place in music history with a rusty nail... a lesson in total commitment to what they love.
I'm afraid you're correct my friend, I am just afraid to say it because so many people love him and hate to criticize--but continuous triples between a snare and tom over double BD beats doesn't cut it for me. however the first time I heard Cream in high school and TOAD in particular (which you are hearing in most part here) I was still impressed--and I do love Cream and somehow , what he was doing was right. No, the skills of an "upper-end" technical drummer are not there--still I won't over rate him--but I do love listening. and Cream is classic, so there you go. (my grade 9 students learn the triplets between the snare and the toms --and its fun and a great exercise. )
Ive been saying the exact same thing, and I always get insulted for it (not that i care). He was good. Not great.
@@johnhead6116 regularry your comment is ridicule 😂😂😂
Cream was a great rock and roll band.. Eric Clapton couldn't read or write a note of music.
And ginger baker was no match for American jazz drummers like Krupa or Rich..
Sometimes the song is king. And the drummer better know when to shut up and listen..
If he's too busy in a John Lennon song , its lights out for ginger...
Yah Baker would never play for some tool like Lennon when he's serious anyways he's good.
Cream was not a rock and roll trio. Period.
What a load of shit. Ginger was one of the musical drummers who ever played
Toms sound terrible.
toms sound bad . Plastic sound I'd expect from a beginners set.
60's setup doesnt work with modern close mic'ing ?
There's plenty of other vids where he is using the same kit with, presumably, the same tuning which sound great. It is just here... I'll blame the sound guy.
Could be that the sound guy had those mic's phase flipped and making them sound thin
Never done anything for me…..I don’t get it…….?…..I could excuse his arrogance & bad attitude if he was any good……compare this to what Billy Cobham plays & you will get my point………come on , bring it on….
I dont like a ripetitive drummer like cobham ! What created cobham .? And his influence ? Zero . How much drummer consider cobham an influence today . If you got a good master you can repeat his style easily . Cobham hadn t style and was not personal . The most forgotten drummer ever
@@user-jg9pk2yy2d can’t understand your drivel…??….you’re full of shit obviously…..
The snare sounds good but the rest of those drums sound like shit.
