Interview text

Just one of the Boys
AFTER his sudden astonishing invitation to leave his home in Romford to play a U.S. tour with the Beach Boys, Adrian Baker has now been asked to write songs for the band.
“It's all a bit like a fantasy,” 29-year-old Adrian says from his Nevada hotel.
“The tour has been really fantastic, the audiences incredible and the guys themselves absolutely great. There's not one in the band I dislike.”
On the tour so far Adrian has already played before President Reagan and 525,000 other people in Washington alone.
Adrian was invited to play with the Beach Boys after he released a single called Beach Boy Gold under the alias Gidea Park
On the record Adrian perfectly imitated some of the band's hits by singing all the vocals and playing all the instruments except drums. The record is now at 37 in the charts.
