Hello.
Is it true that Ginger Baker got inducted into Modern Drummer magazine's Drum Hall Of Fame this year(2008)? If it's true that's good for him. He deserves it. I know that he was one of the first rock drummers to have a double bass drum set up(along with Moon) and he was probably the best rock drummer in the world in the mid 1960's and that he knows his rudiments and he's very good at double bass and he's good at African polyrhythms and has Jazz chops.

I would appreciate it if somebody could answer my question. Thanks. Take care. Later.
