Greatest Ever Drummer

Recommended Posts

Peter Edward Baker. (Ginger Baker)

Mainly because in his younger days he trained and competed as a racing cyclist before, presumably thinking, 'sod this for a game of soldiers, I wanna be a drummer'.

Also, he was in Cream and Cream rock. So there.

Top tune!

I like 'Strange Brew' a lot too.

'Sunshine of Your Love' is playing now.

I only know White Room because Hugh Cornwall (The Stranglers) covered it on his solo album (Nosferatu)

Worth a listen?

It's not exactly what I'd call Punk Rock - But I thought it was a brilliant album - Don't know how easy it would be to get hold of today (I have it on vinyl) - Think it was released in '79

It's not exactly a solo album as it's Hugh Cornwall and Robert Williams (Captain Beefheart drummer) - It's meant to be their soundtrack to the original Nosferatu film - It's quite dark

Just seen there's a vinyl copy on ebay.co.uk

I had breakfast with Cozy Powell at Marcus Studios

Cozy was recording a solo album and an ELP album - I was recording with KLF

Have to say he was the most genuine musician I met at Marcus - Sadly, people who are big names in music tend to have their heads firmly wedged up their own árses

Nice one. Although I'd say he was a pretty big name!

Only the good die young...

Indeed they do :)

'Toad' must also be the song with the most famous drum solo in rock music :thumbup:
