Today in counterculture history (08/19)

  • 1939:  Ginger Baker is born




Quote:

Peter Edward "Ginger" Baker (born 19 August 1939, Lewisham, South London) is an English drummer, best known for his work with Cream and Blind Faith. He is also known for his numerous associations with New World music and the use of African influences. He has also had other collaborations such as with Gary Moore, Hawkwind and Public Image. Baker was ranked by Rolling Stone magazine as the third greatest drummer of all time.

Baker's drumming attracted attention for its flamboyance, showmanship and his use of two bass drums instead of the conventional single bass kick drum (following a similar set-up used by Louie Bellson during his days with Duke Ellington). Although a firmly established rock drummer, he prefers being referred to as a jazz drummer.

While at times performing in a similar way to Keith Moon from The Who, Baker also employs a more restrained style influenced by the British jazz groups he heard during the late 1950s and early 1960s. In his early days as a drummer, he performed lengthy drum solos, the best known being the five minute drum solo "Toad" from Cream's debut album Fresh Cream (1966). He is also noted for using a variety of other percussion instruments and for his application of African rhythms. He would often emphasize the flam, a drum rudiment where both sticks would attack the drums at almost the same time to give a heavy thunderous sound.

  • 1969:  "Woodstock" episode of The Dick Cavett show takes place




Quote:

August 19: Immediately following Woodstock, David Crosby, Stephen Stills, Joni Mitchell and Jefferson Airplane appear on the Dick Cavett Show. The latter's use of the slogan "Up against the wall, motherfuckers!" in the lyrics for "We Can Be Together" slips past the censors and is played on national television.

Happy 75th Birthday Ginger Baker.  Watch his documentary "Beware Of Mr. Baker" on Netflix tonight. 


Also, it's the 45th anniversary of that Dick Cavett Woodstock episode.  Watch the Jefferson Airplane performance again and watch how Grace says "Up against the wall mother fucker" on national television.  The censors completely missed it.
