"The first and only solo album by one of early rock'n'roll's most influential guitar players (along with Chuck Berry & Bo Diddley. Mickey Baker is best known as one half of Mickey & Sylvia, but his track record for incredible guitar work on countless '50s R&B cuts (many for Atlantic) is what makes The Wildest Guitar, his first and only solo album, so desirable among collectors. Despite Baker's well deserved reputation as one of the most influential guitar players of early rock'n'roll, The Wildest Guitar is one of the few chances he really gets to strut his stuff as a solo artist. This entirely instrumental set features keening, sharp, bluesy riffs in much the same distinctive style that gained him fame on 'Love Is Strange' and other tunes with Mickey & Sylvia."
