Cream documentary Ginger Baker got a chip on his shoulder

Streamed a Cream documentary on my Roku last night, Kinda dissapointed that wasnt more music, lots of interviews and "behind the scenes".
Clapton was a gentleman and tried to stay neutral. Jack Bruce was kinda rock starry at times, but Ginger was really carring a grudge  against Bruce and would not let it go, Every comment was negative...what a bummer

    I dragged my wife to the Modern Drummer Drumfest about 15 years ago or so (essentially an afternoon of drum solos) ... she left for a bit to take a break.  When she got back, Ginger was up on stage soloing.  She looked at him (she had no idea who he was) ... looked at me and then said "why is there a homeless guy up on stage playing drums".

    I saw Ginger on the Blind Faith tour. He looked homeless then.

    I think acting like an angry old English drummer has become some what fashionable.

    Maybe he was just a few years ahead of the curve.

    If you knew Jack Bruce you'd know why Ginger is that way.
     
    It has become a BIG THING between them, but I'll think you'll find that Jack kinda deserves it.  Don't get me wrong, I admire Jack a lot.  He reminds me of some of the people on this forum, though..
     
    Eric is such a nice guy nowadays, but even he finds Jack a bit over the top.
     
    John McLaughlin is probably the nicest, most calm musician you will ever meet, but even he had problems with Jack.
     
    Ginger can be a cantankerous old git, but leave him alone.  He doesn't like to take any s!!t, but he had to put up with a lot of it..

    Apparently things got pretty heated between Baker, Bruce and Gary Moore too. BBM were good though...
