Polygram/Chronicles' Do What You Like is a double-disc compilation that contains all of Ginger Baker's first three albums -- Airforce, Airforce 2 and Stratavarious -- plus several previously unreleased recordings from this era. Although these albums were a little uneven, they were frequently provocative and remain quite interesting years after their original work. Hardcore fans will certainly need it, but it's an effective introduction for the curious as well.

The second project to match drummer Ginger Baker with guitarist Bill Frisell and bassist Charlie Haden does not reach the heights of the first effort. Guest appearances by banjoist Bela Fleck on three songs and guitarist Jerry Hahn on one are welcome, but the diversity and wide scope of the first Baker trio set are not reached. The music often leans toward country (Frisell was probably preparing mentally for his Nashville project), the originals are less memorable than before, and the element of danger is mostly absent. A bit of a disappointment.

Tracks:
01 - Falling off the Roof 4:00
02 - Amarillo, Barbados 4:41
03 - Bemshaw Swing 4:21
04 - Sunday at the Hillcrest 5:54
05 - Au Privave Parker 3:06
06 - Our Spanish Love Song 5:21
07 - C.B.C. Mimps 6:49
08 - Skeleton 5:57
09 - Vino Vecchio 3:56
10 - The Day the Sun Came Out 8:23
11 - Taney County 5:23

Personnel:
Ginger Baker - drums
Bill Frisell - guitar
Charlie Haden - bass
guests:
Bela Fleck - banjo
Jerry Hahn - guitar
