Oswald “Baba” Brooks
In my opinion one of the Great JA Hornsmen alongside Tommy McCook & Roland Alphonso but unlike Roland & Tommy a little overlooked ,I know of no LP credited solely to Baba .He is credited on Prince Buster’s “What A Hard Man Fe Dead” LP & I have heard the Prince rate Baba in an interview so I guess he could be featured on any number of “Prince Buster All Stars” singles , he also features on The Techniques “Little Did You Know “ LP ,and I think he was Duke Reid’s arranger until The Skatalites split &Tommy McCook came over to Treasure Isle, from there he moved over to work with Sonia Pottinger at “Gayfeet” continuing to cut some great tunes into the Rocksteady Period , so here’s a taster
