ADRIAN BAKER: Into A Dream (Magnet 5009).
Quite a talented lad our Adrian, as a quick glance through the credits on this album shows; he plays practically every musical instrument except drums and percussion! He's also done most of the writing along with Roy Morgan — put it all together and you've got a rather strange album. In places it ought to be the Adrian Baker choir, because there's so much multi-tracking on the vocals that it sounds like a cast of thousands. It's also a bit same-y; too many Sherry arrangements, and while it was a big hit, maybe a bit more variety? It's an easy listening album basically, nothing to offend anyone.

“Into A Dream,” Adrian Baker (Magnet): A versatile talent such as Adrian Baker just had to produce a good album. He has such a fine singing voice, sense of production and is a prolific songwriter.
I think it is safe to say that this is probably one of the best L.P.s to be released by Magnet. Baker's individual style makes sure each track offers something fresh and different.
Twelve tracks — and 10 of them are Baker compositions. The exceptions, ironically being the massive hit “Sherry” and a great version of Lennon-Mccartney's “I Feel Fine.” All the tracks are good and if you listen to such numbers as “Vibrations” and “Candy Baby” I am sure you will agree.
