Eddie Baxter


  • Born 23 November 1922, Colorado
  • Died 21 August 1998, Mission Viejo, California

    The swingin'-est organist to record for Dot in the 1960s. Baxter was born in Colorado, but grew up in Los Angeles, where he began performing professionally in his late teens. He played with Glen Gray and Frank Masters toward the tail end of the big band era, then settled into the studio system, where he worked as "musical director" (translation: one-man live studio orchestra) for a variety of day-time game shows. He also played in nightclubs in Las Vegas and the L.A. area.
