Guy Warren (a/k/a/ Kofi Ghanaba), percussionist and bandleader, died
December 22 2008. He was 85.


I am 99% certain it was Guy Warren who played on recordings first
released on the "Blind Faith: Deluxe Edition" 2 CD set. For some
reason, "Guy Warner" is credited in the Deluxe Edition's liner notes.

Warren worked with Ginger Baker before and after the Blind Faith era.
He also played with Charlie Parker, Duke Ellington, and many others.
