More from Ginger Baker. This is his trio sessions with Bill Frisell on guitar and Charlie Haden on bass. These 3 videos are from the same concert at the jazz festival in Frankfurt Germany. On the 3rd video Baker solo’s from 9 minute mark to 12:30, showing why he was such a highly regarded drummer of multiple genres of music. Circa 1995.
Enjoy!

Would other members like to share video's of other jazz drummers playing a kit with 2 bass drums as Baker does here as the majority of jazz drummers use a kit with one bass drum. In the first minute of the solo you can see both of Bakers legs pounding the pedals!...It was said that on some occasions his bass drums were nailed or screwed into the floor!
