Description
First Base is an album by the rock music group Babe Ruth. Produced by Alan Shacklock and Nick Mobbs, and engineered by Tony Clark at the EMI's Abbey Road Studios between June and September 1972, it was released that year.
The album went gold in Canada, sold well in the US, but had disappointing sales by comparison in the UK. The song ''The Mexican'' has been covered and remixed many times. Among them, it was covered in 1984 by John ''Jellybean'' Benitez with vocals by Janita Haan. ''The Mexican'' was also mixed into the third track of The Dirtchamber Sessions Volume One by Liam Howlett of The Prodigy in 1999.
The sleeve design, painting and photography were by Roger Dean.
