Music Lives 365: August 19

High point from Cream and their enigmatic, often controversial drummer Ginger Baker. When you listen to their records his contributions operate like a Swiss watch, augmenting and leading at the same time.

You might be poor, your shoes might be broken, but your mind is a palace.”
