	Ginger Baker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Peter Edward "Ginger" Baker (born August 19, 1939) born in Lewisham, London, is a British percussionist who gained fame as a member of Cream from 1966 until 1968 with Jack Bruce and Eric Clapton, and later joined Clapton and Steve Winwood in the 1969 group Blind Faith.
		Baker also performed lengthy improvisational drum solos (such as "Toad") on his elaborate drum kit; he was one of the first rock drummers to use two bass drums as part of his drum set, a practice inspired by jazz drummer Louie Bellson.
		Since 1986, Ginger Baker has released several albums of ethnic fusion and jazz percussion, and has toured with various jazz, classical music, and rock ensembles, including a reunited Cream.
