The Miracles - Baby, Baby Don't Cry

in my opinion a forgotten gem, in that it made # 8 on the charts and has seemed to disappear. first heard this song last year and just feel in love with it, smokey really is one of the greatest songwriters ever

whos that women???

[ruffan]

that's Smokeys wife Claudette she sang backup on a very large portion of their songs but retired from touring early on

A truly beautiful song, haunting in a way. This song has always touch a deep nerve with me- it's another of those Motown songs that demonstrates that the company wasn't just about creating good dance tunes, but could create emotionally honest songs as well. The whole song is brilliant, but when it hits that break and modulates up a key, I almost always loose it. A Masterpiece.

@joehancock01 Claudette Robinson was an original member of The Miracles. She retired from live performances in 1964 for health reasons, but continued recording with the group until 1972, when her husband, Smokey, left.
