Baker Gurvitz Army was a heavy progressive rock band formed in 1974 in England. The band was the combination of members of The Gun and Three Man Army, with ex-Cream drummer Ginger Baker, guitarist and vocalist Adrian Gurvitz, and bassist Paul Gurvitz formed the band's lineup.

The band released their first self-titled album in 1974, which enjoyed moderate success in the UK. The band returned in 1975 with "Elysian Encounter," as well as a live album "Live in Derby '75." In 1976, the band released their third album, "Hearts on Fire." However, the death of the band's manager caused the band to break up. The three members, of whom were already ingrained in the music business' rolodex, had no trouble joining, collaborating with, and forming new bands and projects, such as Atomic Rooster, Hawkwind, and others. The band's music is heavily based in the famous hard rock style of the period, with artful and progressive elements added. Baker Gurvitz Army is a prime example of heavy prog with a more accessible edge.
