Carly Simon – “Tired of Being Blonde” (1985)(Acetate)

Carly Simon – “Tired of Being Blonde” (1985)(Acetate)

This is a one-of-one acetate directly from Arhutr's personal Collection.

Arthur Baker is an architect of modern music—producer, DJ, record exec and true pioneer.

We spent a few days in Miami with him curating his Collection, uncovering lost demos, tapes and never released records. From the original Def Jam contract signed by Rick Rubin, to studio reels from The Rolling Stones, Jeff Beck and personal invites to Mancuso's Loft.

Multiple innovations by Baker arguably changed modern music. As well as pioneering the cut ‘n’ paste sampling technique, Baker also spearheaded the 12” dance music trend and popularised hiring DJs to help mix his own releases to give them a unique and genre-defying sound. Baker’s sound can be heard on tracks by legendary artists like Bruce Springsteen, Diana Ross, the Rolling Stones, Al Green, Beastie Boys, Quincy Jones, New Edition, Hall & Oates, Neneh Cherry, Mogwai, Fleetwood Mac and remixed for such films as Beat Street and Fried Green Tomatoes.
