right here. John Bonham could do things with drums that were seemingly beyond human ability. Watching old footage of his drum solos is entertaining and exciting. Ginger Baker is a hard drummer to copy, he had a very unique style in the late 60s. But he doesn't even fit in the same category as guys like Bonham and Keith Moon.

Ginger Baker came from the old jazz school when swing was the king. He adapted to rock and roll. I don't think it is a fair comparison or criticism to compare Baker with either Kieth Moon or John Bonham. They were true rock drummers.
