Ginger Baker: The Ginger Man
Chris Welch, Melody Maker, 17 August 1968
PETER "GINGER" BAKER will be 29 soon, and after 13 years of beating drum kits into submission, he is at last able to relax and enjoy the fruits of success. His image among Cream fans is of a violent extrovert, mixing Irish blood with triple Scotches, and prone to throw drums at anyone who steps out of line.
