I always thought that Baker's "jazzier" drumming style made Cream a much more interesting power trio (and Jack Bruce; Clapton not so much) There was definately too much hype about his playing. The doc was good. In many ways he was a typical jazz drummer; lifelong junkie and alcoholic)

Loved Cream always. Even the Clapton part. Very much. Clapton needs to not be Solo...
Cream came exactly between The Who & the Jimi Hendrix Experience - both in History - & in Evolution...
Baker was not as fluid (...tho' he did have natural facility @ playing polyrythms...) nor as varied as either Moon or Mitchell (who were *very much* those things) - but he did have strenght & crazy endurance. & - his own Voice on the instrument. Just as he had his own Voice in everything...the definition of a Leo Monster...& Talent...

Very few rock drummers can credibly play jazz and vice versa. Generally true that a good band with a bad drummer is a bad band. One exception was the original Spirit, whose recorded legacy is supreme despite having one of the clumsiest drummers in rock, Ed Cassidy. He was reportedly a good jazz drummer, but he could not adapt to rock. His fills were mediocre, his solos atrocious.

re: Watts, I never thought there was much there, but as a drummer I have recently been focusing obsessively on tempo and how minute variations in pace and meter can profoundly alter whether a song is great or . . . not. I just listened to 'Fool to Cry', and the beat is very simple, but it is absolutely masterful in terms of pacing, tempo and feel

Jack: I do get that. A lot of drum talk seems to challenge me to imagine my favorite songs were not good enough because the drummer ruined it. My life's complicated enough.

"Punks": Elvis Costello's long time drummer (can't think of his name) was real good, and I saw Joe Jackson play with Sheila E. Also, the Police!

I think Watts is pitiful behind the kit. But he showed up for work sober.

@coel: agreed. But some would argue a few dozen million records sold can't be wrong :)

...suppose we could probly fix Watts w/ AutoTune & give the Stones that 21stCentury sheen their Musics really demand...

this is how we know who the real masters are; by how popular they are with the masses.

Buddy Miles got no respect cos (I think) everyone expected him to be "Mitch Mitchell II" which he was not, but he was a solid drummer.
also, Steve Goulding of the Rumour.

Did someone actually refer to Costello as Punk? Why? The dudes a great writer, boring as all heck and very polished.
Perhaps I misunderstood the reference?
