Biography

The Netherlands (1969 – present)

George Baker (born Johannes Bouwens, The Netherlands) is the singer, songwriter, and founder of the Dutch pop music band, the George Baker Selection in 1969. They have sold over 20 million records worldwide.

The band acquired international fame with the two major hit singles; the psychedelic rock-style Little Green Bag (1969), and Paloma Blanca (1975).

In 1982, Paloma Blanca was used in the TV movie The Executioner’s Song. In 1992, Little Green Bag again topped the international charts after it was used in Quentin Tarantino’s motion picture Reservoir Dogs. Little Green Bag was also used in Chilean telenovela “Machos” as the main theme, and in a commercial for a norwegian pizza called “Grandiosa”.
