"Okay the recording my not be the best but the collection of musicians was a great idea if only they had recored the album in a studio and live in another auditorium. But I loved the cover that is what drew me to the album in the first place great art work of the time. I bought the album and cd just for that reason."
A great album

"A fine, fine album this one is from the legendary Ginger Baker. The sizzling hot saxophone jams are really good, and the keyboards are a nice touch as well. The vocals are muddy and in the back of the mix, but it works well with the dark and eerie singing style. Worth owning.

"Hi folks! I've just bought and listened to Ginger Baker's AirForce and it's great! The opening track(DaDa Man)and a variation of "Toad" are my faves(Baker & Seaman rule!). The only drawback is the audio's quality; some voices & instruments tend to be overpowered by the drums & horns, and the stereo mixing's a bit rough(recording technology was atrocious in those days).Overall though, the mix of jazz,rock,and traditional & world music is fun to listen to. If you're a fan of Cream,you'll love it."
HA! 5 stars for talent

"I expected this album to be great just by the line up of musicians. They truly didn't disappoint. Ginger Baker of course was phenomenal as well as Stevie Winwood's belting voice, and Denny Laine's country soul on "Man of Constant Sorrow". If you're a fan of music, you should have this in your collection. The African percussion provided by Reebop Kwaku Baah adds a layer of primal beat."
