BAKER KNIGHT



From 1967 comes a different style release from Baker. He had a some rockabilly cuts in the '50s that influenced those mop-tops from across the pond (what was their name...?) anyway..this one was a B-side, but gets an A-side status on my player. Baker left us in 2005....but his sounds will always carry on.
