Whatever happened to James Baker? The Victims, the Scientists...what a pedigree. In the late 80s I seem to remember I saw a single from the James Baker Experience called ``Born To Be Punched'', which to my lasting regret I never bought. Haven't seen or heard anything of the man since.

[nzoz1980]

@ChicksDigBeige The 'punch' song is on my nzoz1985 channel... simply type James Baker nzoz1985, you'll get it... he's still busy working in bands and whatever... there's a wiki write up on him.

[TheSupersour]

no bass drum???!? thats cool

[nzoz1980]

@TheSupersour James Baker didn't need one. He made the sound by stomping his foot.

A punk band using REAL chords :o

[nzoz1980]

@Forbrtishesyesonlyy wtf are you talking about. they're an australian band.

[ChicksDigBeige]

@mweills Yes, I'm an idiot, totally forgot about the Gurus. Stoneage Romeos is the only Gurus LP I have and I still play it 20+ years later.

[mweills]

@ChicksDigBeige James Baker went on to found the Hoodoo Gurus with Dave Faulkner.

Recorded "Stoneage Romeos" and was replaced/fired. Love that band.
