Ginger Baker is in the hospital and critically ill.  I’m not sure how he’s made this long.  Then there’s Keith Richards who defies the grim reaper.

Keith Richards is a robot. 

So is Betty White.

I read a quote from Ginger Baker a few years ago where he claimed to have quit heroin 29 times.

If you have quit heroin 29 times in 40 years, you have not quit heroin.

I'm beginning to think Keith Richards IS the Grim Reaper, would explain a lot.

And it’s done.  RIP Mr. Baker.  It was a longer run than I ever anticipated.

There is a full length documentary that I watch about him.  Must have been Netflix or Amazon where I watched it.  Crazy dude.  Interesting.  

 

Well, with the power of Youtube, here seems to be the whole 1.5hr film

It is mainly that documentary I even care about the guy.  It was tough to watch at times.
