Anything He Can Do...

In my recent post on rhythm sections, I mentioned the love-hate relationship between Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce. Bruce has been quoted as saying that he and Baker were now living on different continents, but he wasn't sure whether that was far enough way; while Baker has publicly blamed Bruce for his misfortunes, including impaired hearing and financial difficulties.

Can the fact that Baker has now announced he will appear at Ronnie Scott's, London, with his latest band have anything to do with the fact that Bruce recently appeared triumphantly at Ronnie's and is due to return there soon with his new band?

Neither of these truly legendary musicians has anything left to prove... do they?
