A pioneering drummer who has transcended genres, he did much to popularize world music with his fierce passion for the rhythms of Africa. He also confesses to the heroin use that should have killed him in his colorful 1960s prime, working and playing with the biggest names of the time. It's an often harrowing, but honest journey from his humble beginnings in war-torn south London to his adopted home in South Africa's beautiful Western Cape—complete with polo club. He talks candidly of the loss and recovery of his fortune, his three marriages, Cream's 1993 induction into the rock'n'roll hall of fame, their subsequent successful reunion in 2005, and his hopes for the future.. He is that rare thing, a critically-accl

Caldwell. Even though he likes to portray himself as a tough nut I think Eric Clapton is right in his estimation of Ginger Baker when he said according to Ginger Baker "you're not really a hard nut at all".The book was conversational in style and gave an interesting account of a great musician and his life. Albeit a bizarre life full of giant leaps forward and giant leaps backwards!People talk a lot about how amazing it is that Keith Richard is still alive. I'd have to say the same for Ginger Baker but even moreso!He's not charitable to many of. "Listen to his music" according to Nina Bennett. I have always said, much to the amusement of some of my musically inclined friends, that Ginger Baker is the greatest rock drummer ever. Now Baker says it himself-over and over and over. His memoir is as much about his polo experiences as his musical ones. He has quite a knack for being in the midst of chaos, much of it self-caused.

He comes across as a s
