Tuesday’s Tune: Baby It’s You
Formed in Los Angeles, California, in ’69, the band Smith had a blues-ey based sound that scored them a number five on the US charts in 1969 with their cover of “Baby It’s You.” Featuring Gayle McCormick on lead vocals, “Baby It’s You” was written by musician Burt Bacharach and was originally recorded by the Shirelles and the Beatles.
I really like this version though, it’s super laid back and oozes that cool, blues feel. It makes me want to shuffle around in bare feet to it, pretending I’m looking much cooler than I actually am.
Enjoy!
