Comments and Reviews

mleg56 27th Sep 2024		notes: "Bye Bye Baby" is the first single by R&B singer Mary Wells, released in September 1960 on the Motown label. The song was one of Motown's earliest hit singles and showcased a much rougher vocal than the singer had during her later years. credits: Lead vocals by Mary Wells Background vocals by The Rayber Voices (Raynoma Liles Gordy, Brian Holland, Sonny Sanders, and Robert Bateman) Instrumentation by The Funk Brothers Produced by Berry Gordy Recorded United Sound Studios, Detroit, Michigan, 1960
