Ba Da produced by Niney The Observer for Ethnic in 1975
1975’s Ba Da Riddim on Ethnic finds Niney The Observer shaping a tight roots set with Booker T’s Down Presser, Dennis Alcapone’s Pressure In A Babylon, Gregory Isaacs’ Ba Da, and Mama Benji’s Rock And Come In. The rhythm is part of Niney’s mid-’70s run, when his productions were leaning hard into sparse, driving bass lines and crisp drum work, and the release sits neatly in that classic roots-to-sound-system era. Gregory Isaacs gives the lineup an extra pull, while the Dennis Alcapone cut adds a deejay edge that balances the singers’ sides.
