Ginger Baker

“When he stayed at the Crown Hotel in Denver, we went to visit him. He’d got a bull whip with which he was terrorising people and a hand mallet and ball that he was whacking around his room, smashing pictures in the process. I was looking out for a suitable polo field so Hunter took us round an old (and, unfortunately, highly radioactive) airbase in his SUV. He had a round tin full of coke in the vehicle into which he continually dipped a straw and sniffed. I was sitting in the back seat with a bucket of ice and a bottle of Chivas Regal, which Hunter kept reaching back for, still driving of course! He once turned up at polo wearing a white plastic mask. He was totally insane, absolutely crazy.”
