Baker was born in Varna, Bulgaria. His father was an English businessman and honorary vice consul and his mother a Red Cross nurse who moved to Bulgaria to help fight cholera. He attended Lancing College, Sussex; he then appeared as an actor in repertory theatre and at the Old Vic. Baker's third wife, Louie Ramsay, who died earlier in 2011, played his onscreen wife Dora in The Ruth Rendell Mysteries. Baker was survived by five daughters (four from his first marriage, one from his second).
Career
Baker first made his name in The Dam Busters and his first starring role was in The Ship That Died of Shame with Richard Attenborough. This was followed by a string of Ealing films, and his film the 1950s swashbuckler, The Moonraker has been shown all over the world since 1958. However, over time, Baker became better known as a television actor. He was the second (to Guy Doleman) of many actors to portray the role of "Number Two" in the series The Prisoner, appearing in the series' first episode. He appeared in his own TV comedy series Bowler. He was also in the first episode of Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em, playing a company boss interviewing the show's hapless main character. In the acclaimed 1976 drama serial, I, Claudius, Baker played the emperor Tiberius Caesar.
George Baker (born Johannes Bouwens, 8 December 1944) is a Dutch singer and songwriter who, with his band George Baker Selection, scored two international hits in the 1970s, "Paloma Blanca" and "Little Green Bag". He is now a solo artist. Little Green Bag is used as the opening soundtrack for the movie Reservoir Dogs.
Childhood
Bouwens was born 8 December 1944, the child of a Dutch woman and an Italian soldier who ended up in the Netherlands during World War 2 as a prisoner of war. His father was killed while attempting to escape, before Bouwens was born. He was raised in Hoorn, in a working class neighborhood, with only a radio and a stack of books to keep him company after all his friends moved on to better neighborhoods. His musical idol was Elvis.
George Baker (10 February 1885 – 8 January 1976) was an English singer. He is remembered for singing on thousands of gramophone records in a career that spanned 53 years, beginning in 1909. He is especially associated with the comic baritone roles in recordings of the Gilbert & Sullivan operas.
Early life and career
George Baker, also known as George Portland (and other recording pseudonyms), was born in Birkenhead, the son of Walter Baker and his wife, Elizabeth, née Sanders. He studied violin, flute and piano as a child. At the age of 16, he served as organist and choirmaster at the Woodford Parish Church in Cheshire. He did the same at two churches in Birkenhead between 1903 and 1906. Baker studied singing with John Acton and won a scholarship to the Royal College of Music. There he studied with Gustave Garcia and was awarded a Patron Funds Grant to continue his vocal studies in Milan in 1914. He was married three times: first to pianist/conductor Grace Lilian Bryant (1871–1955), from 1911 until their divorce in 1922, then to singer Kathlyn Hilliard, who died in 1933, and then to Olive Groves, another singer and teacher, who died in 1974.

George Baker (BABY BLUE) With Lyric.
Lagu Barat Lawas Baby Blue
Lirik :
**BABY BLUE**
(George Baker)
She wrote me today
That she won't come back to stay
That she'd only comes to pick up her clothes
She wrote I must not cry
That her love for me has died
But she'd found somebody else, I suppose
Baby Blue, Baby Blue
Do you know that I'm still in love with you
Now I know that you won't be here no more
How I need you, how I want you Baby Blue
I know I must forget
All the good times we had
But I'll know that I can't forget you
You're still on my mind
And I know I can find
Such a girl as my sweet Baby Blue
Baby Blue, Baby Blue
Do you know that I'm still in love with you
Now I know that you won't be here no more
How I need you, how I want you Baby Blue
How I need you, how I want you Baby Blue
