Sad news. I'm reaching for Cream albums to hear his dramatic drumming again.

The end of another era. Farewell to the best time keeper in the business. Never tired of hearing his drumming.

One of the best of all time but with a complicated, belligerent personality.

I was an aspiring drummer, then I heard Toad played live on the Wheels of Fire LP...rapidly gave them up!

He was among the greatest drummers ever but one of the nastiest human beings...RIP
