His training was guided by one of the greatest Jazz drummers in history, the famous Phil Seaman, who also helped him emerge in music by becoming his mentor.
It was thanks to this training, along with his natural talent and great creativity, that Ginger Baker was able to create his own style, with interesting techniques and an impressive virtuosity on the instrument, which led him to be one of the best rock drummers in all the history.
