Baker Street - Right Down The Line: The Gerry Rafferty Songbook

Europe's No.1 Gerry Rafferty Tribute Show performs a full band cover of "Baker Street." The magic and majesty of Gerry Rafferty's enduring music is brought to life in this emotive, evocative and extraordinary live concert celebration. From "Stuck In The Middle With You" to "Baker Street", and beyond. For all enquiries: raffertysongbook@gmail.com Baker Street was included on Rafferty's second solo album, City to City (1978), which was his first release after the resolution of legal problems surrounding the break-up of his old band, Stealers Wheel, in 1975. In the intervening three years, Rafferty had been unable to release any material because of disputes about the band's remaining contractual recording obligations. Rafferty wrote the song during a period when he was trying to extricate himself from his Stealers Wheel contracts. He was regularly travelling between his Scottish family home in Paisley and London, where he recalled often staying at a friend's flat on Baker Street: "Everybody was suing each other, so I spent a lot of time on the overnight train from Glasgow to London for meetings with lawyers. I knew a guy who lived in a little flat off Baker Street. We'd sit and chat or play guitar there through the night." The resolution of Rafferty's legal and financial frustrations may have accounted for the exhilaration of the song's final verse: "When you wake up it's a new morning The sun is shining, it's a new morning You're going, you're going home."
