Nakon smrti Gingera Bakera u dobi od 80 godina, mnogi umjetnici s kojima je sarađivao oglasili su se na društvenim mrežama kako bi odali počast pokojnom bubnjaru Cream-a.
“Ginger Baker, sjajan bubnjar, divlji i drag momak”, na Twitteru je napisao Paul McCartney, ubrzo nakon što je se pojavila vijest o smrti bubnjara. “Zajedno smo radili na albumu„ Band on the Run “u njegovom ARC studiju. Tužno je čuti da je umro, ali sjećanje na njega nikad neće umrijeti. ”
Flea, basista Red Hot Chili Peppersa, napisao je na Instagramu: “Toliko slobode u njegovom sviranju. Kakav divlji čovjek. Ritmovi koje slušamo cijeli život, ukrao ih je s neba. Počivaj u miru Ginger Baker. ”
“Jedan od najvećih bubnjara svih vremena. Započnite s Disraeli Gears”, tweetao je Steven Van Zandt.
Baker je umro u nedjelju u londonskoj bolnici, gotovo dvije sedmice nakon što je obitelj bubnjara objavila da je “kritično bolestan.”
Ginger Baker, great drummer, wild and lovely guy. We worked together on the 'Band on the Run' album in his ARC Studio, Lagos, Nigeria. Sad to hear that he died but the memories never will. X Paul pic.twitter.com/Rne4tn6A2i

I’m sorry to hear that Ginger Baker passed. He was a great drummer and we all were fans of Cream back then. “Sunshine Of Your Love” was a great one. Love & Mercy, Brian
