| Baker is an eccentric and deep-thinking musician who has jammed with some of the best in the world, from Chicago flautist and bandleader Nicole Mitchell to Sonic Youth guitarist Thurston Moore, of Massachusetts. His talent and humor shines in his solo Delmark CD, More Questions Than Answers, which is the perfect album to let play on repeat for auditory relaxation or intense retrospection -- depending on your mood. If you've not seen and heard Baker labor like a scientist or switchboard operator over the complex assemblage of cables, pedals and knobs that he uses to control his ARP synthesizer, then you've not experienced the best Old School electronic music that gets played in Chicago.
Mr. Baker leads his own quartet in a set of improvised music each Tuesday evening at Hotti Biscotti, starting at around 8:40pm. There is no cover, just voluntary donations. Often there is a second set by different improvised music ensembles following the Baker quartet, which also features Mars Williams on reeds, Brian Sandstrom on bass and guitar, and Steve Hunt on drums and other percussion.
