??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

I don't actually feel qualified to comment on Ginger's appropriateness as a
Hwkwind drummer, and I'm not universally a big fan of his, but to say "no
power" or "ok for any soft rock band" is truly beyond belief.  I suggest
you listen to "No Material" ITM 1435 - it's under Ginger's name, but it's
really a "let's have a thrash & see what happens" band that played just
three gigs over about a week.  The other musicians were:-

Sonny Sharrock - guitar
Peter Brötzmann - saxophones
Nicky Skopelitis - guitar
Jan Kazda - bass

I suppose they could also have called themselves "not Last Exit" :-{/>
Truly scary music!
