Includes bibliographical references."Kicking ass and taking notes - what it's like to be a woman in the ring. Alison Dean teaches English literature. She also punches people.

Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker, Stewart CopelandOriginally produced by Kino Lorber in 2012.Ginger Baker is the original rock ‘n roll madman-junkie-superstar who everyone thought was dead, but somehow survived 50+ years of drug abuse, disastrous experiments, and four marriages on three continents.

This no-holds-barred, moving, and hilarious portrait of the man referred to as rock’s first great drummer (and perhaps still its best) lets him tell his own story, intercut with footage of his continent-hopping life, from London to L.A., Nigeria, Italy, South Africa, and (way) beyond.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
