Bio:

The name Mark Baker may not be immediately recognizable to many, but for liner note/album credits junkies, it signifies top shelf AOR songwriting. Whether it be anthems or ballads, a Mark Baker song means memorable hooks and a big chorus. Mark Baker is the man behind the iconic Signal "Loud & Clear" album as well as many other songs including tracks for .38 Special, Paris Black, Triumph and Boulevard. He was also the main co-writer on House Of Lords' acclaimed "Demons Down" record, rejoining as co-writer on some of the band's more recent albums too."The Future Ain't What It Used To Be" is a compilation of Mark's songwriter demos from the 80s and 90s. The songwriter demos feature various singers, including the best session vocalist of them all: Mark Free. I'm pleased to say there are several unreleased Mark Free vocals. But that's not all. There are some original demos from the House Of Lords "Demons Down" record as well as an appearance from Chicago's Bill Champlin on an amazing AOR anthem. Several of these demos have been traded online for years and MRR is thrilled to bring one disc of this material to light in July. The tracks come from DAT masters and will as always be remastered by JK Northrup.

Album:

Double CD limited to 500 units.While working on compiling the material for this release, several tracks were uncovered that didn't fit the normal audio quality level required of an official release. The masters just couldn't be uncovered. But the songs are still great and deserve some form of preservation.Two years ago, MelodicRock Records gave songwriter Mark Baker a chance to compile some of his best songwriter demos onto a release under his own name for the first time.Now under the new label name MelodicRock Classics, its time to deliver another Volume of tracks, with a couple of limited edition options giving fans the chance to own the entire collection of Mark Baker melodic rock demos.Sharing a similar name, the new release 'The Future Still Ain't What It Used To Be' pays homage to the first album, sharing the epic title track 'The Future Ain't What It Used To Be' over both releases.However, on the new release, the song is sung by the great Caryl Mack Parker.The rest of the album consists of fresh unreleased material, but some of the songs may still sound familiar.The album contains an amazing original Signal demo for the Van Stephenson/Mark Baker co-write Wake Up You Little Fool; also a David Roberts sung demo of the Boulevard track In The Twilight; An Aina sung version of the James Christian track 'No Pleasure Without Pain' and more.'The Future Still Ain't What It Used To Be' will also be available in two limited edition formats featuring even more unreleased demos.While working on cmpiling the material for this release, several tracks were uncovered that didn't fit the normal audio quality level required of an official release. The masters just couldn't be uncovered.
