1985 - Adrian Baker • Gidea Park: Mix Factory Press Release

ADRIAN BAKER, top record producer, song writer and international recording artist, enjoyed his first chart success as a solo artist with his Top Ten Hit - “Sherry”. In 1978, Adrian was asked to produce records for the group LIQUID GOLD and he was responsible for producing all their hits from: “Anyway You Do It”; “Dance Yourself Dizzy” (1980); “Substitute” (1980); “The Night The Wine And The Roses” (1980); to “Don't Panic” (1981). “Dance Yourself Dizzy”, reached number two in the U.K. Charts and earned Adrian a Gold Disc. Liquid Gold's chart success in 1981 also coincided with Adrian having further U.K. Chart success with GIDEA PARK'S “BEACH BOY GOLD” and “SEASONS OF GOLD”. It was the excellence of “Beach Boy Gold” which lead to BRUCE JOHNSTON, (Writer and Producer of “I Write The Songs” and “Disney Girls”), inviting Adrian to New York to meet THE BEACH BOYS. As a result, Adrian was invited to tour as a member of THE BEACH BOYS Band for the 1981 and 1982 summer seasons. GIDEA PARK are working on their latest album from which their current single “LAZIN ON THE BEACH”/I GET AROUND”, is taken - a Double “A” Side and is released on the MIX FACTORY RECORD label.
