What's Hot
FunkfingersFunkfingers Frets: 14601
Another chance to see this 2012 film documentary, combining a potted career biography and a look at the way the man ended up. 

The last fifteen minutes of the film are especially memorable.
You say, atom bomb. I say, tin of corned beef.

    Indesputably, one of the finest drummers of the last fifty five years. Unfortunately, Mister Baker always knew it. Consequently, he has attitude and bears grudges.

    If The Cream had stuck to the strict three-way equal partnership ethos that Baker had intended, their recorded output of original material would have been scant.

    Just watched it. Mr Baker came across as a much more likeable person than reviews and comments about the film had led me to believe.

    Leisure chemicals could have something to do with that. I suspect that it is more the case that Baker is happy when he is getting his way and royally pissed off when he is not.
