Baker Sound Studios

Baker Sound was founded in 1964 by trumpet player, arranger, and engineer Norman Baker. Working out of a small motel room in The Oasis Motel in Camden, New Jersey, Baker began recording album projects for groups including the famous Philadelphia Mummers. In 1970 he relocated his growing business to a larger space on Chestnut Street in Philadelphia. A 1980 fire forced a move to the facility’s current location on Ranstead Street.
