Talk:Mickey Baker

message: "played on virtually every hit record by Atlantic, Savoy, and King." to be a bit of hyperbole that needs to be either referenced, modified or out-and-out removed.  Any takers?  Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 02:47, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

There probably is something useful here but it needs to be referenced and worked on a bit. Otherwise if is the dreaded opinion and original research Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 14:37, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: The more I research this the more likely it seems to me that it should be included in the article, perhaps cut in two, the first part in his early years and the book part later when the book gets discussed.  Feel free to join in. Carptrash (talk) 15:20, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I definitely feel it should be included in the article if it can be referenced in any way..generally I think it would be a good idea to expand this article particularly anything related to his books..they seem be the only methods available that teach 50`s style jazz guitar which arguable defines the sound of the instrument..thanks.

text:  also, as a guitarist currently studying his books I`ve found that they are extremely useful and I`ve been playing a while just so you know..personally I believe there should be a separate article on them although I am not really qualified to write it.

replies: text: It`s a generalization but he did study with Baily as well as others..he wrote it all down which was the basis of the books 2600:1702:2340:9470:AC0B:FA4E:B307:299D (talk) 00:57, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

message: It`s probably safe to say his stay at the Ridgewood Home had something to do with the   Ohio River flood of 1937 
The dates line up almost exactly...downtown Louisville was submerged for weeks and there were thousands of displaced people. 97.82.198.192 (talk) 12:09, 17 April 2016 (UTC)
