Listening Booth – Babe Ruth, “The Mexican”
If ’70s prog band Babe Ruth is remembered for one song (and that is about all they’re remembered for), it’s “The Mexican.” It’s from their 1973 debut album First Base and it’s one of the catchiest, grooviest prog tracks you’ll ever hear.
I found a really cool YouTube video with this song played over some Samurai Jack clips, but they faded the song too early for my liking. Check it out though, it’s sweet.

I’ve often wondered what Babe Ruth would be remembered for most. And then I realize I don’t know who they are…
Cool track.
