BABE RUTH was a band that formed in Hatfield, Hertfordshire, England, in 1971. Guitarist Alan Shacklock founded this progressive rock band. They had a rhythmic, bluesy, guitar orientated sound capped off by the blistering vocals of Jenny Hahn. Rounded out by Chris Holmes (keyboards and organ), Dave Punshon (piano), Dave Hewitt, (bass) and Dick Powell, (drums) this British band always put on a great live show.
Jennie Hahn's raw powerful vocals, and Alan Shacklock's magnificent guitar work made for a true signature sound. With very varied eclectic tastes they covererd song like FRANK ZAPPA's "King Kong", and Curtis Mayfield's "We People Darker Than Blue".
Their 1972 "First Base", with its cover art by famed YES artist, Roger Dean, remains one of my most favorite albums to this day. I suggest you give this album a listen, because it is simply one of the best rock albums of all time.
Although long gone, BABE RUTH should never be forgotten. Jenny Hahn has confirmed that there are some new songs in the works.
Badger: Brian Parrish (guitar); Tony Kaye (keyboards); Dave Foster (bass); Roy Dyke (drums).
Producers: Jon Anderson, Geoffrey Haslam, Badger.
Recorded live at the Rainbow Theatre, London, England on December 15-16, 1972.
It has great interaction between the keyboardist Tony Kaye (Yes) and Brian Parrish. Straight ahead rock n' roll, terrific guitar riffs, strong song writing.
