Ginger Baker - Hellraiser: The Autobiography of The World's Greatest Drummer by Ginger Baker

Peter 'Ginger' Baker was a legend. A pioneering drummer who transcended genre, he also lived a life more rock'n'roll than most. In his harrowing and outrageously honest book, he charts his journey from war-torn south London to his adopted home in South Africa's beautiful Western Cape. Along the way he tells how he discovered drums, his passion for music, his life on the road with Cream as well as his decent into drug addiction. Recently passing away in October 2019 at the age of eighty, Hellraiser is the story of a genuine music icon.
Ginger Baker was born in Lewisham, London in 1939 and brought up along with his sister and cousin by his mother and aunt. After forging his reputation on the London jazz scene, he found phenomenal success by forming Cream with Jack Bruce and Eric Clapton in 1966. Ginger died in October 2019 at the age of eighty.
