Ginger Baker of Cream: In Conversation 9
Ginger Baker is without question one of the foremost drummers of his generation, having formed the supergroups Cream and Blind Faith. In the early 1990s, Geoffrey Giuliano received an unsolicited call from Mr. Baker asking if he would be interested in writing his autobiography. From there a turbulent yet fruitful relationship ensued between the two men.
While the book they wrote has yet to be published, here at last are the in-depth, upfront, and personal conversations the two unlikely friends recorded in a Western New York studio all those years ago. For everyone interested in the history, art, and cultural significance of the popular music of the 20th century, this series is a once in a lifetime must-have audio event. Perfect for universities and all educational media.
Episode 9: Cream explodes. Weaning himself off of heroin. A nasty car crash at the end of his Graham Bond days. Yet another car crash with Cream. Recording Fresh Cream in ten days. Ginger doesn’t like Geoffrey’s donuts. The artistry of Cream.
Contains adult language and mature themes. Not recommended for children.
