James Baker carried an air of mythology and untouchable cool even as he walked the streets of Surry Hills. He had seen and done all we wanted to do before we had even begun! To call him your friend was to claim bragging rights but he was everyone’s friend. No airs or graces, James was extremely humble and happy to see and chat with everyone.A founding member of seminal bands The Victims, Scientists, Hoodoo Gurus and the Dubrovniks, James was a great drummer but an even greater human. There will never be another James Baker.
