I hope you found your way Ginger. RIP For anyone interested, one of the best musical documentaries I've ever watched was "Beware of Mr. Baker", from 2012. It is a fascinating look at his growing up years and how his dad went off to fight in WWII and sadly never came home and the effects it had on him later on. Clapton is interviewed here and at one point when asked how Baker compared to John Bonham and Keith Moon, he immediately dismisses it and says with Baker, there was basically no one who could touch him. It's on youtube and it is one hour and 32 minutes of tremendous stories, anecdotes, poignant moments and the harsh truth about what a very crude man he could be, even to his own family. I just watched it again and it's well worth a look. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Producer of "The Godfather" RIP https://chicago.suntimes.com/2019/10/28/20936719/robert-evans-dies-at-89-producer-chinatown-the-godfather-love-story Glass, as a guy who loves to watch documentaries, such as the one on Ginger Baker I posted before, I also watched one on Robert Evans some years back called, 'The Kid Stays in the Picture", another fascinating behind the scenes look at a guy who played such a large part in the entertainment industry. Haven't checked, but that also might be on YouTube as well, since the doc is from about 2003 or 2004 I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfingboy Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 That sick bugger who inspired the film Wolf Creek, Ivan Milat, died in jail at 74. That movie convinced me to never do a road trip in rural Australia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never new much about the guy, but he appears to have had a great deal of influence at one time. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sigi Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Last Friday night, November 1, our beloved and only cat died, she was 24 years old. She suffered recently from senility and during the last weeks she was almost only skin and bones because she ate less and less.It’s not easy to cope with the grieving. She leaves an empty space in my life, something always reminds me of her and I catch myself as I constantly look at her favorite places if she lies there. I'm constantly trying to distract myself, so it's difficult for me to talk about it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
