| Guitar 'George' Baker |
|
|
|
 Twelve years -- and it was well worth the wait! “Guitar George” Baker’s debut CD/DVD of the critics say: “Mojo Lady” “.... a solid blues guitar style that is definitely his own....” (Modern Guitars Magazine) “....one of the best kept secrets in the mainstream blues world.” (allmusic.com) “Mojo Lady” rocks hard with an R&B flavor that combines horns and a driving rhythm.” (allaboutjazz.com) Master guitarist Baker was born and raised in New Roads, Louisiana and performs his own unique style of bluesy, roots-inspired jazz expressed with the virtuosity of a guitar master. That means you can EXPECT and ANTICIPATE Baker to demonstrate “great technical skill.”
He picked up a guitar at the age of 17 and attended Brooklyn Conservatory with Trevor Lawrence. His first “gigs” were with local R&B vocalist Roosevelt ‘Boo’ Gautier, The Drifters and Earl Davis and the Upsetters. Baker’s track record is extensive and includes performing with the house band at the Apollo Theater in Harlem, touring with the great, late Marvin Gaye as his musical director for three years, and stints with Melba Moore, The Flamingos and The Shirelles. The CD has 10 hot tracks, five of which are also available on the DVD and includes interviews with Baker and video and photos from his career. Stay tuned to the Chittlin Circuit internet radio (www.chittlincircuit.com) for a “live interview” with George Baker. |
